lash memory is an evolving
technology that’s finding
its way into our lives on an
increasing scale. Flash-memory
technology is ubiquitous. Like most
things associated with computers,
non-volatile storage sticks have
a specific set of benefits and
drawbacks. Having a basic idea of
those parameters allows the buyer
to form a more informed choice
about which is best for his or her
needs. Flash memory may be a
quite Erasable Read Only Memory
(EEROM) which has the potential
to clear and rewrite data. It is
non-volatile meaning it can hold
data even without the presence
of power, supported the way of
addressing read/write data, non-
volatile storage. Most of the flash
memories come in several forms.
More or same capacities are often
packed in smaller units, making it
require less space to accommodate
data storage. It solely depends on
electrochemical processes, having
no moving parts means it’s more
durable also.

flash memory solutions for cloud
infrastructure, AI, digital content,

Thomas Isakovich is the founder and the Chief
Executive Officer Nimbus Data. He started Nimbus Data to
rewrite the rules of data storage for the modern age by combining
powerful yet easy-to-use software, next-generation flash
memory technology, and a revolutionary customer experience
and business model. Thomas personally provided 80 percent of
the capital to fund Nimbus Data, bypassing venture capital and
boot-strapping the business to over 600 installations at over 200
customers in 12 countries. Fascinated with data storage at an
early age, Thomas designed and sold his first storage array 25
years ago as a teenager. After stints at IBM’s Almaden Research
Center and Oracle’s Network Computer division, Thomas founded
TrueSAN Networks out of his dorm room at Stanford University,
ultimately taking a leave of absence to build the company into
a leading storage management software provider. Thomas later
returned to Stanford, graduating in the top 10% of his class and
earning a B.A. with Honors. Thomas is a published author, has
several patents, and is a frequent speaker on entrepreneurship
and storage technology at universities and industry events. When
not working, he can be found hiking the trails or surfing the

his year, the need for SEO
rose to an all-time high. As
consumers shifted en masse
to online, even the most traditional
business realized that they need to
accelerate the shift to digital. SEO is
the most viable and cost-effective
way to both understand and reach
customers in key moments that
matter. Many brands and businesses
know (or think they know) that
they need SEO for their digital
properties, and the benefits they
will get from the SEO work being
implemented on their behalf. In
particular, SEO helps consumers
when in need, and implementing
robust, quality SEO on a brand’s
website and digital properties will
benefit brands and their marketing
efforts. High-quality SEO will always
find a means of discovering and
leveraging new opportunities for
brands not just to be discovered
but to shine. Offering quality SEO
to brands means submersing an
SEO team in everything that is
that brand. It’s the only way to
truly market a brand with the
passion and understanding that its
stakeholders have for it: becoming a
stakeholder. SEO has its challenges,
but the opportunities it brings help
future-proof success for any type
of business and are critical to a
brand’s web presence now and in
