Reduce Costs and Complexity with Backup-Free StorageHitachi Vantara
The growth in unstructured data stresses traditional backup and restore operations. Numerous, disparate systems with large numbers of files and duplicate copies of data increase backup and restore times and hurt the performance and availability of production systems. Cost and complexity rise, with more backup instances to buy and manage, more care and handling of an increasing numbers of tapes, and more management of offsite storage. In addition, you may need to support analytics, a compliance audit, or legal action that needs information that is stored offsite. By tiering data to an archive, you can reduce total backup volume by at least 30%. By extending that core archive to the edges of your business, your potential gains are worth investigating. View this webcast to learn how to: Lower capital expenses (hardware, software, licensing, and so on). Control maintenance costs. Simplify management complexity.

Ten years ago, Jeanne Harris and I published the book Competing on Analytics, and we’ve just finished updating it for publication in September. One major reason for the update is that analytical technology has changed dramatically over the last decade; the sections we wrote on those topics have become woefully out of date. So revising our book offered us a chance to take stock of 10 years of change in analytics.
Of course, not everything is different. Some technologies from a decade ago are still in broad use, and I’ll describe them here too. There has been even more stability in analytical leadership, change management, and culture, and in many cases those remain the toughest problems to address. But we’re here to talk about technology. Here’s a brief summary of what’s changed in the past decade.
The last decade, of course, was the era of big data. New data sources such as online clickstreams required a variety of new hardware offerings on premise and in the cloud, primarily involving distributed computing — spreading analytical calculations across multiple commodity servers — or specialized data appliances. Such machines often analyze data “in memory,” which can dramatically accelerate times-to-answer. Cloud-based analytics made it possible for organizations to acquire massive amounts of computing power for short periods at low cost. Even small businesses could get in on the act, and big companies began using these tools not just for big data but also for traditional small, structured data.

· Putting Data to Work
Analytics are critical to companies’ performance.
Along with the hardware advances, the need to store and process big data in new ways led to a whole constellation of open source software, such as Hadoop and scripting languages. Hadoop is used to store and do basic processing on big data, and it’s typically more than an order of magnitude cheaper than a data warehouse for similar volumes of data. Today many organizations are employing Hadoop-based data lakes to store different types of data in their original formats until they need to be structured and analyzed.
Since much of big data is relatively unstructured, data scientists created ways to make it structured and ready for statistical analysis, with new (and old) scripting languages like Pig, Hive, and Python. More-specialized open source tools, such as Spark for streaming data and R for statistics, have also gained substantial popularity. The process of acquiring and using open source software is a major change in itself for established busines ...
Activate Your Data Lakehouse with an Enterprise Knowledge GraphDATAVERSITY
Rapid innovation and disruption in the data management space is helping organizations unlock value from data available both inside and outside the enterprise. Organizations operating across physical and digital boundaries are finding new opportunities to serve customers in the way they want to be served. These organizations have done so by harnessing the power of all the data at their disposal. In other words, creating a data-driven culture that looks to democratize data across all aspects of their business functions and operations for richer, faster insights that turn into actionable intelligence at the speed of business.
An Enterprise Knowledge Graph fills that critical gap in existing data management tech stacks. It fits nicely between where data is stored, cataloged, and consumed to eliminate data access barriers, add meaning to data through semantic models, and promote a culture of self-service and self-sufficiency.
Join our session to learn about Enterprise Knowledge Graphs and how they:
- Streamline access to your data with virtualization
- Enrich your data with business meaning using semantic standards
- Identify new connections and insights through inference
- Deliver better data to your existing analytics tools
Themes and objectives:
To position FAIR as a key enabler to automate and accelerate R&D process workflows
FAIR Implementation within the context of a use case
Grounded in precise outcomes (e.g. faster and bigger science / more reuse of data to enhance value / increased ability to share data for collaboration and partnership)
To make data actionable through FAIR interoperability

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Face Data Challenges of Life Science Organizations With Next-Generation Hitachi Unified Storage -- Solution Profile
1. Spend Less Time Managing Your Storage and More
Time Solving Scientific and Business Challenges
The challenges facing life science organizations range
from explosive data growth and skyrocketing costs to
an increasingly complex research and development
cycle. All have created unprecedented demands on IT
infrastructures. As a result, these organizations can no
longer afford to ignore the cost of storage ownership in
their quest for successful but cost-effective discovery-
to-market strategies.
Face Data Challenges of Life Science Organizations
With Next-Generation Hitachi Unified Storage
SOLUTIONPROFILE
Life science organizations face a mounting data
challenge that is driving up complexity and costs.
The growing utilization of sequencing technologies
that produce massive amounts of data is only part
of the challenge. Data requirements for successful
compound discovery, clinical trials and new drug
applications are driving a steady increase in the
volume of scientific data that is being generated and
utilized for analysis and interpretation. And finally, pre-
vailing wisdom indicates the more data you have, the
more likely you are to be able to extract something
useful out of it; therefore, data-intensive life science
organizations often take the safer route of simply
storing all of it.
At the same time, these research-based organizations
are under constant pressure to find efficiencies and cost
savings that will support their competitive and business
goals. It is these challenges that are forcing most of
today’s life science organizations to re-evaluate their data
management infrastructures to determine how they can
drive scientific and business innovation.
2. SOLUTION PROFILE
IT budgets for the typical life science organization are
estimated to consume nearly 15% of the total research and
development expenditure. This high level of investment,
while perhaps essential, does not always move the
organization closer to its core mission of drug discovery
and development.
At the Center of the Life
Sciences Data Challenge
Advances in sequencing technologies are
presenting IT professionals with a number of
challenges related to storing, managing and
providing access to scientific and business
data. With a wide and growing availability
of IT applications generating record levels
of scientifically relevant data, research-
driven organizations are facing data that is
increasing both in complexity and volume.
This exponential growth curve is expected
to continue; in fact, genomic data alone is
doubling every 12 months. In addition to this,
there is a wealth of available “big genom-
ics” databases and networks, available at
low cost or even no cost. From a scientific
perspective, this creates huge opportunities
for new compound delivery; however, it also
creates enormous challenges related to the
efficient and cost-effective management of
this trove of data.
Data retention is also at the center of the
data challenge. Official retention policies
vary from a few years to 15 years or more.
In the life science industry, however, per-
haps more than anywhere else, data is
considered the most valuable of assets.
It is considered part of the data manage-
ment infrastructure, forever. Maintaining the
health of the business as well as the health
and well-being of patients depends on the
integrity of data. New drug registration and
marketing approval is based on the data
that is provided to the health authorities.
The adequacy and the quality of consumer
products are supported by the documen-
tation produced and retained. And finally,
there is no way to estimate what data will
be valuable when, so retaining everything,
potentially forever, has become a scientific
and business necessity.
The Next Generation of
Hitachi Unified Storage
Hitachi Unified Storage (HUS) 100 family
and NAS gateway technology create a
new unified midrange storage platform
for all data. Built with trusted Hitachi reli-
ability, this family helps research-based IT
organizations implement a centralized yet
scalable infrastructure in an environment
characterized by explosive data growth,
high-performance applications and new
data retention strategies.
Hitachi has combined our leading block
technology with the storage technology
from BlueArc to deliver unified storage that
will meet high-level performance metrics.
These may include increased retrieval
speed rates, reduced support and facil-
ity costs, and improved scalability and
organizational flexibility. Life science IT
organizations will be able to deploy a stor-
age infrastructure strategy that will easily
grow to meet expanding requirements and
ensure service level agreements for critical
scientific and business applications are
met. At the same time, they can reduce the
environmental complexity with an intuitive
centralized management system.
The evolution of sequencing technologies
and the availability of a growing amount
of genomics-based research data are not
the sole drivers of change in life science
IT organizations. Costs have become an
important driver as research and devel-
opment investment levels spiral out of
control. Successful delivery of a consum-
able product may represent more than a
decade of research and development and
a billion dollars of investment. Thus, orga-
nizations are looking at their IT strategy
as one way to reduce costs and maintain
profits, while also playing an integral part
in optimizing research and development
cycles. These new business realities require
a new method of IT prioritization focused on
reducing costs while improving efficiencies
and outcomes.
3. Best-in-Class Performance
and Scalability
In the life sciences domain, rapid advance-
ment in next-generation sequencing
instruments, imaging systems, simulations
and discovery-to-market processes are
generating vast data sets. These data sets
need to be analyzed effectively to create
new knowledge. Identifying critical inter-
actions between many variables is a key
problem in many applications. At the same
time, this can be paralyzing to both data
storage and processing.
The newest in the Hitachi Unified Storage
100 family and NAS gateway technology
offers the highest in availability and perfor-
mance, so you can meet service levels with
less risk. HUS 100 family consolidates both
file and block data. It scales up capacity,
performance and connectivity, and mini-
mizes copies, reduces size and provides
business-view reporting. The next gener-
ation in Hitachi Unified Storage delivers 4
times the capacity scalability and up to 50%
more IOPS performance. These improve-
ments enable organizations struggling with
data growth challenges to grow block vol-
umes and file systems dynamically, without
concerns to size limits. The next generation
in unified storage also delivers up to 90%
more efficiency with fewer disks and accel-
erated flash-based performance, which is
ideal for most data heavy environments.
With the highest reliability, HUS 100 family
ensures data is tamperproof, offers remote
management, updates without interrup-
tion, and provides dynamic load balancing
controllers. The business results include
99.999% availability, increased useful life of

Reduce the Cost of the
Discovery-to-Market
Process: Begin in IT
Life science organizations face extreme
revenue pressure from the combined
impact of long research and development
cycles and growing competitive landscape.
At the same time, their pipeline for new
blockbuster products looks uncertain.
Furthermore, the costs and risks to dis-
covering new drugs are growing, driven by
increasingly complex and costly regulatory
approval processes and by a need to invest
in more complicated targets and therapies.
The average cost to market is US$1 bil-
lion, and growing, and development cycle
averages 12 to 15 years. As a result, the
life science industry is rethinking many
traditional business practices, including IT
strategies, as a way to reduce total costs.
The next-generation Hitachi Unified Storage
100 family and NAS gateway technology
enable extensive cost savings through
file and block consolidation. With accel-
erated deduplication, the next-generation
HUS delivers up to 90% more capacity,
which, in turn, can defer or reduce future
storage purchases. With its single com-
mand module, HUS 100 family is simpler
to manage and requires less training. It
is designed to offer low-cost installation,
automated operations and high-density
packaging, which result in reduced admin-
istration requirements and a lower cost of
operation. For the life sciences data center,
a unified storage strategy means less physi-
cal floor space with reduced energy per unit
of storage to sustain.
