The biggest trend today is utilizing the 'cloud.' The cloud is a phrase used to describe moving document storage away from devices and to Internet-based locations. Cloud-based computing has several benefits including ease of collaboration, accessibility of information on multiple PCs and devices and can save organizations money and space. There are multiple companies offering cloud services, join Diana to explore the cloud and offer pros and cons of several popular cloud services including DropBox, Amazon Cloud and Google Docs.
Taking your first steps in the cloud shouldn't be a rush affair. Instead, you should have a detailed plan for your cloud adventure, and it should be tailored to your specific business goals. But what elements do you need in a plan? What should you expect from the cloud and the migration process? All of these are questions organizations face at the beginning of their cloud journey, and HOSTING is familiar with every one.

Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) products have significantly grown in popularity in the last few years, leading many vendors to adopt a hyperconverged approach. VMware is adding to its portfolio a series of products that make its product more suitable to hyperconverged environments.
One concern is hyperconverged infrastructures often leave out one of the core services that many IT environments have come to rely on: Shared file services. Since shared file services is not built into most HCI products, it leaves customers with a few choices, each of which come with advantages and disadvantages. Specifically, the customer can choose to provide file services from a VM or purchase a dedicated NAS product to run separate from the HCI environment. There is also the opportunity to integrate the cloud as part of the file services option. There may also be the opportunity to improve or offload the challenges associated with data protection.
Is there a third choice that offers the advantages of both but with fewer disadvantages?
Cloud Computing is used for storing, accessing data and programs over the internet. It basically means that you no longer use computer’s hard drive to store or access data.

This presentation analyzes aspects of the Amazon EC2 IaaS cloud environment that differ from a traditional data center and introduces general best practices for ensuring data privacy, storage persistence, and reliable DBMS backup. Presented by Jorge Noa, CTO of Hyperstratus
Webinar: Overcoming the Shortcomings of Legacy NAS with Microsoft AzureStorage Switzerland
Most organizations use Network Attached Storage (NAS) to store data, but the modern workforce and organization expect more capabilities than what the typical NAS can provide. Also, as organizations themselves become more distributed, the idea of a single centralized file server with users tunneling through virtual private networks won’t scale. The common alternative, putting a NAS in each remote office offers problems of its own when IT tries to make sure the data is protected and made available to the right users at the right time.
Join Storage Switzerland and Nasuni for our webinar “Providing Global File Services Using Microsoft Azure.” By attending this event, you’ll learn:
1. The shortcomings of the Legacy NAS
2. The Cloud Advantage
3. Where the Cloud Needs Help and How to Get it
Containers for the Enterprise: It's Not That SimpleMirantis
Keynote by Alex Polvi, CEO of CoreOS, at OpenStack Silicon Valley 2015.
Containers are rapidly finding their way into enterprise data centers. But enterprises like to consume complete products. How do technologies like containers make their way from hyperscale ubiquity to enterprise nirvana? Alex offers some clues.

La Hipertensión Arterial es un mal a la salud que puede conllevar a peligros en el buen funcionamiento del cuerpo humano. En esta presentación pasamos a presentar cómo es que aparece, qué condiciones lo generan y qué implica la hipertensión para la salud.
Haptophyta ou Prymnesiophyta é um grupo de algas unicelulares. Os seus cloroplastos pigmentam-se de forma similar aos Heterokontophyta (como nas algas douradas, mas diferenciam-se no resto da estrutura celular, pelo que podem ser considerados uma linha evolutiva separada, na qual os cloroplastos são derivados de endossimbiontes similares.
As células possuem normalmente dois flagelos levemente desiguais, que são lisos, e um único organelo denominado haptonema, que é superficialmente similar a um flagelo mas que se diferencia do mesmo pelo conjunto de microtúbulos e no uso. O nome vem do grego, hapsis, tacto e de nema, hilo. As mitocôndrias possuem cristas tubulares.
Os Haptophyta mais conhecidos são os cocolitóforos (ordens Coccolithales e Isochrysidales), que têm um exoesqueleto de placas calcáreas denominadas cocólitos. Constituem o fitoplâcton marinho mais abundante, especialmente em mar aberto e é extremamente abundante como microfóssil. Outros Haptophyta plactónicos incluem Chrysochromulina e Prymnesium, que periodicamente produzem blooms de algas, tóxicos, e Phaeocystis que produz blooms que geram uma espuma desagradável que se acumula nas praias. Estudos moleculares e morfológicos dividem Haptophyta em cinco ordens. Um exemplo de cocolitoforídeo e a Emiliania huxleyi que pode formar florações cubrindo milhares de quilômetros quadrados no oceano.
Storage Switzerland’s founder and lead analyst, George Crump and Cloudian’s Chief Marketing Officer, Paul Turner, describe the benefits of object and cloud storage but also describe how they can work together to solve your data problem once and for all. In addition, they cover specific next steps to begin implementing a hybrid cloud storage solution in your data center.
Webinar: Cloud Archiving – Amazon Glacier, Microsoft Azure or Something Else?Storage Switzerland
Amazon Glacier seems like the ultimate archive; capacity costs are impressively cheap, it never has to be upgraded or replaced and all the data is off-site. The problem is at some point the organization is going to need to recover some specific set of data from that archive. At that point, the allure of Glacier wears off quickly because it is slow and recovery has to be done either through the command line or within software code. There is no self-service web-portal access to identify and retrieve specific content easily.
