As member countries turn the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) into domestic law, vendor’s are focusing on secondary storage, backup, archive and disaster recovery. But what about primary storage? Is it possible to architect a primary storage system…
Backup and Recovery remain a constant challenge for most enterprises. New vendors appear on the horizon constantly to “solve” the problem. But are these “rookies” really up to the challenge or are they actually making the situation worse? Join us…
Almost every data center needs to test operating system updates and new code releases. A DRaaS solution can meet the need. The problem is these testing needs require a copy of the server being tested with a most recent copy…
Making sure a data center’s compute, network and storage resources are used efficiently is important. But making sure those resources are efficiently used in the cloud is critical. In the data center, finding a better way to balance the compute…
A vendor’s support of their backup application is an important priority for IT to understand as it looks for potential new backup solutions. Enterprise backup is unlike any other application in the data center. At some point in the backup…
The only problem with the all-flash data center is most of the data (as much as 85%) organizations store is not accessed in more than a year. Assuming there is a more cost effective way to store that data it…
Deep Learning is a machine learning method that uses algorithms to determine a predictable behavior by analyzing seemingly disparate types of data. Use cases include fraud prevention, image classification, speech recognition, and countless others. To deliver a frictionless interaction with…
Quantum Xcellis Scale-out NAS Briefing Note Unstructured data is polarizing. On one end, a large portion of unstructured data needs almost no performance, it just needs to be retained in case it is needed in the future. On the other…
Public cloud storage is highly scalable and very cost effective. It also happens to be located next to an almost infinite supply of compute. Why then do most primary storage vendors pretend the resource doesn’t exist? The answer is quite…
Most storage systems today have the ability to replicate data to another storage system at another site. If the storage system doesn’t have that capability, then there are plenty of third-party software solutions that perform the function. Even if the…
