Why Data Protection Automation Fails
Data protection automation fails because it spans four independent layers—storage snapshots, hypervisor snapshots, backup software, and replication systems—each requiring separate APIs. Unified infrastructure platforms eliminate this complexity through single-API integration, making automation maintainable.

Create Private AI With Existing Servers
Artificial intelligence is now central to IT strategy, yet many organizations assume that meaningful progress requires new infrastructure. The assumption comes from the demands of AI workloads. They require substantial CPU and GPU power, high-throughput storage, and fast data movement. Vendors reinforce this belief by offering AI layers that sit on top of existing stacks,…

All Immutable Storage Does Not Equal Ransomware Protection
Ransomware continues to be one of IT’s biggest challenges, driving organizations to look for better ways to protect their data and accelerate recovery. One of the most common and effective countermeasures is immutable storage — the ability to lock data so it cannot be changed, deleted, or encrypted by an attacker. However, not all immutable…

VMware Exit: Why DR Readiness Matters More Than the Hypervisor
Most organizations planning their VMware Exit view it as a hypervisor replacement project. That narrow goal hides a larger opportunity: the chance to modernize data protection and recovery. The migration process highlights the failure of legacy disaster recovery strategies to keep pace with modern infrastructure requirements. For many IT teams, the VMware Exit is the…

Reimagining VDI: The Impact of VMware Exit
A VMware exit presents an opportunity for IT leaders to reassess virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and infrastructure strategy as costs decrease and new compliance and security pressures arise. Embracing an infrastructure-wide consolidation can simplify operations, reduce costs, and enhance readiness for AI, transforming complex systems into a unified architecture.

Why Cloud Repatriation is Critical Post-VMware Exit
83% of enterprise CIOs are now planning to bring workloads back on-premises—nearly doubling from 43% in late 2020. This dramatic shift toward cloud repatriation intersects perfectly with the current VMware migration crisis, creating an unprecedented opportunity for comprehensive infrastructure consolidation. The timing isn’t coincidental, and the economic case is compelling.

AFA Deduplication vs vSAN
The transition from VMware requires careful consideration of deduplication and storage options. All-Flash Arrays (AFAs) excel in performance but are costly, while vSAN faces latency issues due to its complex architecture. Integrated ultraconverged systems like VergeOS eliminate trade-offs, improving efficiency and reducing costs by unifying deduplication with core hypervisor functions.

Rethinking ROBO and Edge
Enterprises with distributed operations are being compelled to reassess their ROBO and Edge strategies following Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware. Long-held assumptions about how to manage infrastructure at remote offices, branch offices (ROBO), and edge locations need to be reexamined. Beyond VMware, there is another pressure point: the emerging need to run AI workloads closer to…
