Understanding Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP Transitioning your business systems and data to the cloud can seem complex, especially if you are new to cloud file storage services. Whether you are moving from traditional on-premises enterprise storage or just getting started in the cloud, sizing your storage correctly is key to avoiding future issues. The […]

The gaming industry is undergoing significant growth, with AI-driven interactive experiences setting new standards. Anuttacon, an independent research lab, is committed to developing humanistic general intelligence that enables seamless, real-time interactions across text, voice, visuals, and more. Their mission is to create multimodal AI capable of genuine emotional understanding and expressive communication—technology that both thinks […]

Log rotation is a standard operational practice for maintaining system health and performance while managing storage costs effectively. This practice involves systematically archiving log files to prevent them from consuming excessive storage. When a log file reaches a certain size or age, it’s rotated—meaning the current file is archived with a new name and a […]

As an organization’s projects and users grow, managing granular access controls for data resources while complying with security regulations becomes crucial. Multi-user environments necessitate delegating appropriate access levels to make sure of data privacy and security. However, managing access controls for shared documents can be complex and time-consuming, especially with increasing users that are spread […]

As businesses evolve, critical applications must remain highly available whether running on traditional virtualized infrastructure or more modern cloud- based environments. These workloads need to be resilient against ransomware attacks, data corruption, infrastructure failures, and regional impairments. Organizations must focus on defining the appropriate recovery objectives, while also minimizing costs. However, implementing disaster recovery can […]

Amazon S3 is the best place to build data lakes because of its durability, availability, scalability, and security. In 2023, we introduced Mountpoint for Amazon S3, an open source file client that allows Linux-based applications to access S3 objects through a file API. Shortly after, we took this one step further with the Mountpoint for […]

Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. For users running applications and workloads on Kubernetes, protecting resources and data from accidental deletion or hardware failures is crucial for maintaining business continuity and meeting compliance requirements. While Kubernetes provides high availability through its control plane […]

On premises customers using NetApp storage arrays in their own data centers often have strict network and firewall access control rules in place to secure their data, but this type of security usually introduces Network Address Translation (NAT) into the path between the arrays. ONTAP, either on-premises or in the cloud, requires storage clusters to […]

In today’s data-driven world, organizations are migrating mission-critical databases to the cloud for better performance, scalability, and cost-efficiency. Amazon Aurora DSQL, a serverless distributed SQL database, is purpose-built for always available applications with virtually unlimited scale, the highest availability, and zero infrastructure management. As customers adopt Aurora DSQL, ensuring comprehensive data protection becomes critical to […]

Modern cybersecurity teams are facing unprecedented challenges in data analysis by the scale, complexity, and velocity of data. Cloud environments continuously generate massive amounts information in form of access logs, configuration changes, alerts, and telemetry. Traditional analysis methods of looking at these data points in isolation can’t effectively detect threats such as lateral movement and […]
