'Software-Defined Everything' Includes Storage and DataPrimaryData
Is your data stuck where it started? Join us and industry analyst Jason Bloomberg this Tuesday, July 26 to discover how you can automate data mobility across your software-defined datacenter.
If you’re like most enterprises, you’ve likely added the benefits of flash and cloud storage to your traditional infrastructure. This storage diversity delivers more choice in meeting performance, protection and cost requirements to support the different data needs of applications, but without a way to converge data across your different storage investments, it’s nearly impossible to align the right data to the right storage at the right time. Data virtualization is a software-defined solution that finally unites different storage systems into a global pool of resources so that even data can be part of your SDDC architecture from on-premise and into the cloud.
In Tuesday’s webinar, Jason will provide insight on how the principle of Software-Defined Everything supports the business agility needs of today’s enterprises. He will also discuss the software-defined approach to championing agility by automatically aligning storage resources to evolving data demands through data virtualization and orchestration, even as business needs change.
Following Jason’s talk, Primary Data Senior Systems Engineer Brett Arnott will cover how data orchestration ensures that data is automatically aligned to the right storage resource to deliver breakthrough agility and efficiency. Attendees will learn how data virtualization and orchestration helps enterprises not only develop a roadmap for their transition to software-defined storage and data, but also execute the move to automated, Objective-driven storage efficiency.

Presentatie 9 juni 2016
Many professionals within IT organizations think that since the advent of Cloud, capacity management is no longer needed and that it’s provided by the Cloud provider. Although it’s true that Cloud providers will provide you with all the capacity you desire, it’s not the same as managing that capacity – or the resulting bill!
Migrating applications and services to the Cloud is not as straightforward as moving the workloads, databases and systems to a Cloud provider. Planning for this migration is challenging and can be very costly if not done correctly. Once in the Cloud, continued monitoring of those services is needed to not over – or under – provision, as both can be very costly to the business.
Syncsort’s Athene™ Cloud provides secure, hassle-free capacity management without the need for software and database implementation. Whether on premise, in the cloud or both – Syncsort organizes the data that powers machine learning, AI and predictive analytics. Now, getting your data to the cloud – and accessing, integrating and cleansing it – has never been easier. Add on the expertise from Syncsort Professional Services and you have a world-class managed service offering that will ensure optimization of your workloads and services. How can you go wrong?
View this webcast on-demand to learn more about topics such as:
• What is Athene™ Cloud?
• Planning a migration to the Cloud
• Managing applications and services in the Cloud
• Moving capacity management to the Cloud

Powering Virtualization, Applications, and Data Center Transformation with Co...Dell World
How can you streamline management and administration, provide services and applications fast, and empower your customers and users? Having to run IT more efficiently is a given; infrastructure operations and the data center must become simpler, easier to manage and less costly. And IT must be "cloud ready." Convergence is a path to that efficiency—and if that sounds like a mix of virtualization, cloud, utility, on-demand and shared computing services, you are right. The majority of "converged solutions" today are complex and rigid, resulting in more inflexible islands of technology rather than integrating with existing processes, investments and strategies. Organizations are demanding solutions designed with the key tenets of modularity and flexibility at their core. The ROI of convergence can be realized in many ways, but involves reevaluating your platform strategy to consider solutions that are not only optimized for virtualization density, but designed to work for you at any scale, from office to enterprise.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
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.

<This is an optional slide to provide background on the problem IntelliSnap solves>Today, datacenters are trying to increase recovery SLAs for critical applications. But, with disparate array tool sets, limited application integration and scripting to needed to retain for backup, operations are very complex and hard to scale as data grows.IntelliSnap solves this problem: It combines snapshot and backup into a seamless operation across all leading arrays and applicationsIt normalizes operations. From a single console across the entire environments, users define policies that automate snapshots and backup. No need to drill down into each array type for each application. IntelliSnap takes care of all of that ‘under the covers’ so you have the same look and feel for all snap and backup operations giving you the ability to scale as your data grows.
Simpana 10 IntelliSnap has extended its integration leadership with new application coverage (Hyper-V) and enhanced integration with enterprise apps (below)Simpana 10 is also expanding the IntelliSnap use case into snapshot cloning which automates the creation of a ‘writeable snapshot’ for application dev and test. This means IntelliSnap continues to extend beyond snap and backup into new use cases that help eliminate the need to use disparate management tools. One Simpana console does it all.More detail:Lotus Notes on Windows supportDB2 on Windows: support DB2 DPF Support: DB2 DPF support on Linux/UNIX Oracle Windows support SAP/Oracle Windows support Oracle Log Truncation: Execute log truncation immediately after the snapshot is executed vs. current separate job
Snack-Ive is coming – For Filesystems
Context/Background: The game has changed from “Server Virtualization” to “Shared Services (aka Cloud)Infrastructures”:2012 saw an inflection point in the adoption of server virtualization. For the first time, the number of applications and workloads running on VM exceeded those running on physical boxes. Most customers have moved well beyond the “nuts and bolts” of virtualizing servers and support for even advanced API sets is now considered table stakes for data management solutions.In the Enterprise, this means customers are now deploying large scale virtual infrastructures (aka private cloud) in order to deliver the maximum efficiency and scale benefits back to the business.In the SMB, this means customers are looking even more to MSP and Cloud Service Providers as a means to gain similar efficiencies and scale benefits as the Enterprise without having to invest in the infrastructure themselves.And in the Mid-market, this means a hybrid set of internal private cloud services for core strategic services and public cloud services for perhipherals.Cloud Scale With this new inflection point in mind, CommVault Simpana 10 helps deliver to “Cloud Scale” across all segments of the market:Customized discovery & filtering features at the data store level automate what you want to discover/protect. This provides flexibility to help optimize protection for environments that mix VM datastores with other application data like Exchange or Files. Or if a VM that is very large, say 1TB we can discover datastore and exclude it to help streamline operations. Simpana 10 also delivers automated/accelerated recoveries that provision, recover, and power-on VMs to improve recovery times. New resiliency features like load balancing & failover of virtual server backup agents (VSA) help deliver continuous operations. These feature can work in concert with IntelliSnap which is a key differentiator to delivering large scale protection and recovery for VMware and now Hyper-V environments.Simpana 10 now delivers deeper integration with VMware vCloud Director to deliver granular recoveries in a multi-tenant environment to speed recovery times. Other competitive products are not VDC aware.Finally, self service restore capabilities using a Simpana vCenter plugin help reduce helpdesk calls from VM admins that can perform their own recoveries
Market Context: Implementing and improving DR preparedness is a “Top 5” spend priority for most IT orgs in 2013 (ESG and Gartner)Cost of a poor or non-existent DR solution has never been higher. We live in a world of 24x7 operations that is more dependent than ever on IT service availability at all times.At the same time, the risk of loss from disaster, corruption or intrusion is rising as well.But traditional DR solutions have not evolved to keep pace with these new dynamics and requirementsCommVault Simpana 10Enhancements to DASH copy make it more efficient to replicate deduplicated, backup copies to any disk target or location for disaster recovery.VirtualizeMe automates the recovery of a backup copy into a VM for DR easy testing and operations. Simpana 10 extends this support from VMware to Hyper-V to help you leverage your virtual infrastructure.Finally, New workflow automation which we will cover shortly can orchestrate processes to augment DR to reduce management complexity.
Transitioning to Management, Simpana 10 delivers some cutting edge enhancements to help enterprises manage large scale operations and shared services efficiently. Simpana 10 jumps ahead of the competition with new workflow automation, revamp’d, web based reporting that ties in with trending and health checks and finally, our fourth generation deduplication that extends source and target dedupe to a parallel model for 2x performance and scale.
Market context/background: The shift to Shared Services Infrastructures demands advanced SW capabilities for automation and orchestration.As customers and MSPs deploy cloud-based infrastructure at scale, the need to become operationally efficient in IT delivery is critical and can mean the difference between profitability and bankruptcyThink Rackspace example: they have 10,000 different backup jobs running every day. No admin or even group of admins can manage all those jobs. At that scale, orchestration tools that coordinate the activities of both underlying hardware (storage, networking, etc) and software (snapshot engines, archives, backup, indexing, etc) and take proactive steps when conditions in the infrastructure change.CommVault Simpana 10New workflow automation enables datacenters to build a data-engine to free up resources. Many IT organizations have ‘run books’ that describe detailed processes for operations. Workflows help eliminate those run books with a graphical interface that allows operators to automate repetitive tasks in order to reduce human error and management.An example of workflows is ‘new client registration’. When a new employee receives a system that is protected by Simpana 10, they download an install package which automatically notifies the Simpana CommCell of the new user, and they are automatically assigned to a backup policy without administrator involvement.Another example would be automatically verifying a SQL backup copy is good after a backup job has completed.
Context/Background:Changing the game on reporting to deliver intuitive tools that let customers optimize the environmentReporting tools from most vendors have suffered from a combination of: 1) cumbersome, high foot print deployments – they took up a lot of resources to run and 2) difficult to use interfaces. Most tools were designed to be flexible and powerful (in other words they captured a ton of useful data). But they did a poor job of presenting this information in a simple readable format – they dump it all into and XLS file to let you figure it out. And in many cases, you had to pay for this privilege! So adoption was poor.CommVault Simpana 10Simpana 10 takes reporting to a new level with new, customizable web based reporting. ‘out of the box’ graphical reports can now be leveraged for easy insights into operations. Similar to customizing tiles on your salesforce.com page, administrators can customize what operations they want to see in a web page.Administrators can proactively manage by drilling down into specific operations by searching for specific items.Simpana 10 also helps admins on the go with ‘CommVault Monitor’ a new table app for iOS or Android that shows operational reporting and allows for management as well.These tools are all delivered in a light weight package that is extremely efficient, so that impact on production systems is minimized or eliminated.And with the CLA program, reporting is included.The dashboards and instrumentation level views are maintained on customer site for short term reporting and status.
Simpana 10 extends the value of this reporting to a whole new level to help enterprises gain insights into their operations to help achieve operational excellence.For longer term trend and historical analysis, CommVault Simpana 10 now leverages a cloud-based approach for comprehensive operational reporting.Reporting data is sent to a “Cloud”. This can be either a private cloud on customer site or a hosted “CommVault Cloud” managed by CommVault (for those customers that opt in)The purpose of the model is to continue to capture detailed history and trends while maintaining a minimal footprint on the production environment while delivering advanced reporting capabilities with no added cost to the customerWhat’s in here?Longer term trend analysis – ID changes in the operating environment and compared with historical trendsHealth check analysis – uses Red/Yellow/Green dashboards with detailed click throughs to let users ID areas that are falling out of spec and need attentionBest Practices analysis – compare a customer operating conditions to known CV best practices in order to tune the environment for optimum performance.
Extending our success with source and target side deduplication, Simpana 10 delivers its 4th generation of deduplication with a parallel model that achieves 2x performance and scale from Simpana 9.Ideal for larger backup needs, Parallel deduplication uses a ‘grid’ of backup nodes to spread the load and work together for increased resiliency, scale and performance. These nodes can also failover to each other to help achieve continuous operations.Initially, Simpana 10 will support two grid backup nodes for a total of 240TB (backend) capacity (each node supports 120TB). Deduplication can then scale linearly to handle petabytes of production data.Simpana 10 can also leverage SSD to accelerate performance of dedupe operations
The payoff with Simpana 10 comes from the access enhancements which enable customers to leverage information they already have 25% for more productivity, reduced management and anytime anywhere access for faster decision making.New Search enhancements scale with the business and transform data into an information assetA new Search interface for DICOM/PACS helps healthcare professionals accelerate finding images they need
Here we see examples of how Simpana 10 users can access their information for self service needs.From end users leveraging mobile devices, a web browser or a Windows Explorer or Outlook plug-in to see their files and emails, to the compliance users that need to quickly Search for information for eDiscovery needs, the ContentStore delivers.

Simpana Edge is a solution that increases workforce productivity by providing self-service access to backup data from their desktops & laptops. New enhancements to Simpana 10 can scale to easily mange thousands of laptop/desktop backups efficientlyAccess can now come through a web interface or from mobile devices like iOS, Android or Microsoft Surface devices. Rather than choosing what files are placed into a cloud storage service, IT can deliver mobile access to ALL user data already in the ContentStore.By adding Search, legal and compliance users can discover information to reduce risk to the organization
Simpana 10 provides a new, intuitive search engine that was purpose-built for legal and compliance teams. With the ability to fulfill their own content-based searches across all data using the ContentStore, legal and compliance teams no longer burden IT with potentially sensitive discovery requests, saving time when the clock is ticking. Legal & Compliance teams can execute legal holds, review, refine and share result sets in-house, before exporting to expensive third-parties to review duplicate or non-responsive data. This reduces overall costs and risks associated with eDiscovery and compliance.
New Search integration with Simpana 10 allows medical professionals to rapidly search and retrieve Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACs) images and electronic healthcare records housed in the ContentStore, even if they originated from multiple PACs platforms, without requiring third-party applications.
