Panzura Delivers Panzura Inside As the time comes to upgrade the storage infrastructure, organizations typically consider two options; an all-flash array or a hyperconverged architecture. While both designs solve many of the challenges data centers face, both are missing a…
The hybrid cloud approach is the storage option that gives customers the best cost, flexibility and scalability today, says Douglas O’Flaherty from IBM when he spoke with George Crump at VMworld 2016. One great way to manage cost is to…
The allure of the public cloud may be wearing off. The theoretical consistent cost of the cloud has proven to be false. CIOs constantly complain about the surprise bill from their cloud provider at the end of the quarter. The…
Pivot3 Briefing Note IT professionals have a lot of choices to make when they design their next generation infrastructure. They have to choose between a hyperconverged offering that consolidates compute, storage and networking into a single tier or a more…
The goal of any cloud initiative is to create a cost-effective, flexible environment. The architectures will typically store large data sets for long periods of times, so one of the challenges to being cost-effective is the physical cost of storage.…
According to IDC, by 2020 40 percent of all data will be machine-generated. Much of this data is unstructured log data from web/app servers, mobile app/devices, and internet of things (IoT). Enterprises of all types and sizes are looking at…
IT professionals use the phrase “cloud bursting” to describe a process where they move compute and storage to the cloud when the local data center runs out of those resources. But there is another type of bursting that happens to…
Storing primary data in the cloud flies in the face of logic. Data is typically stored where the user would create it and there is one reason for that: physics. There was a time, of course, when storage and compute…
According to IDC, by 2020 40 percent of all data will be machine-generated. Much of this data is unstructured log data from web/app servers, mobile app/devices, and internet of things (IoT). Enterprises of all types and sizes are looking at…
Knowledge is power. But knowledge in a heterogeneous storage environment can be difficult to come by. Modern data centers often have a mix of software-defined storage, traditional proprietary storage, all-flash or hybrid storage arrays, and even cloud storage – all…
