Organizations are continuing to build latency-sensitive applications for their business-critical workloads to ensure timely data processing. To make sure that their applications are working and performing as expected, users need effective monitoring and alarming across their infrastructure stack so they can quickly respond to disruptions that may impact their businesses. Storage plays a critical role […]

Operational teams play a crucial role in making sure of the readiness and reliability of a disaster recovery (DR) solution. When these teams don’t have direct access to monitor the resources and services that make up a solution, it can create significant challenges. Logs provide insights into system behaviors, performance, and potential anomalies. When operations […]

Recovering data after a disaster or a ransomware incident headlines today’s news. But in the day-to-day, you are more likely to recover a file from a directory than to restore an entire data set. However, doing so without being able to search and restore the specific items you need can be tedious and time-consuming. It’s […]

As businesses increasingly rely on latency-sensitive applications for mission-critical workloads, the need to understand performance across the entire technology stack is essential to swiftly resolve performance bottlenecks that could affect application efficiency. Given that storage performance and stability directly impact application efficiency, reliability, scalability, and user experience, it is paramount for organizations to have the […]

In today’s digital landscape, businesses rely on consistent and secure backups for data protection and disaster recovery (DR). A centralized backup policy enables organizations to enforce uniform data protection standards across departments and workloads, helping to maintain compliance and minimize risks. In the cloud, organizations use backup policies to manage data protection from a central […]

Over the last 20+ years, commercially available compute virtualization solutions such as VMware have become powerful tools used to lower costs, improve efficiency, ease management tasks, and improve on-premises flexibility. Over time, most cloud providers have added advanced storage, efficiency, and management capabilities to their hypervisors that match or exceed those available to traditional on-premises […]

Modern applications are expected to be available every minute of every day. Achieving the highest levels of availability requires more than setting up redundant hardware, networking, power, and other infrastructure components. You need to architect from the ground up to ensure availability in the event of natural disasters and technology failures. On-premises, this involves setting […]

Businesses that use data lakes, machine learning (ML), and analytics need scalable data storage. However, not all stored data is accessed equally. Some portions of data may be accessed often, while whereas other portions of data are rarely accessed. Modern cloud storage allows users to move infrequently used, cold data to lower-cost storage classes. This […]

Enterprises use block storage such as Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for mission-critical workloads because it provides high performance, low latency, and reliable data access needed for demanding applications like databases, ERP systems, and real-time analytics. As EBS volumes often contain critical application data, configurations, or operating system files, backing up and restoring these […]

Aura created a whole new kind of connected photo frame by making it social. Powered by an invite-only group of friends and family using the Aura app, Aura frames create a space at home to share, collect, and appreciate photos. Users can easily add photos and videos using the app, and enjoy their Wi-Fi connected […]
