12 Architectural Requirements for Protecting Business Data in the CloudBuurst
Designing a cloud data system architecture that protects your precious data when operating business-critical applications and workloads in the cloud is of paramount importance to cloud architects today. Ensuring the high-availability for your company’s applications and protecting business data is challenging and somewhat different than in traditional on-premise data centers.
For most companies with hundreds to thousands of applications, it’s impractical to build all of these important capabilities into every application’s design architecture. The cloud storage infrastructure typically only provides a subset of what’s required to properly protect business data and applications.
So how do you ensure your business data and applications are architected correctly and protected in the cloud?
In this webinar, we covered:
-Best Practices for protecting business data in the cloud
-How To design a protected and highly-available cloud system architecture
-Lessons Learned from architecting thousands of cloud system architectures

Webinar: Performance vs. Cost - Solving The HPC Storage Tug-of-WarStorage Switzerland
The HPC storage performance tier is well defined: scale-out solid state storage systems. But the capacity tier is up for debate. Should you use a high end NAS file system or make the switch to object storage? More importantly: How do you move data from the performance tier to the capacity tier without placing additional burden on already overworked IT personnel?
We answer these questions and provide designs that solve the HPC storage-tug-of-war in our webinar with Caringo. Listen as experts on HPC, NAS and Object Storage discuss the HPC storage challenge, debate the potential solutions and provide you guidance on how to create the right architecture.
Deliver Best-in-Class HPC Cloud Solutions Without Losing Your MindAvere Systems
While cloud computing offers virtually unlimited capacity, harnessing that capacity in an efficient, cost effective fashion can be cumbersome and difficult at the workload level. At the organizational level, it can quickly become chaos.
You must make choices around cloud deployment, and these choices could have a long-lasting impact on your organization. It is important to understand your options and avoid incomplete, complicated, locked-in scenarios. Data management and placement challenges make having the ability to automate workflows and processes across multiple clouds a requirement.
In this webinar, you will:
• Learn how to leverage cloud services as part of an overall computation approach
• Understand data management in a cloud-based world
• Hear what options you have to orchestrate HPC in the cloud
• Learn how cloud orchestration works to automate and align computing with specific goals and objectives
• See an example of an orchestrated HPC workload using on-premises data
From computational research to financial back testing, and research simulations to IoT processing frameworks, decisions made now will not only impact future manageability, but also your sanity.
OpenStack at the speed of business with SolidFire & Red Hat NetApp
