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.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Powering the Creation of Great Work Solution Profile
1. Take Advantage of the Industry’s Best to Power the
Creation of Great Work
In the production of film, videos, games and commercials,
quality and speed are critical. Hitachi Data Systems works
with you to solve your storage and data management
bottlenecks, delivering cost-effective solutions that are
highly scalable for post-production tasks. Whether for CGI
animation, rendering, or transcoding, Hitachi Data Systems
powers your digital workflows, enabling extraordinary
creative and business achievements.
Power the Creation of Great Work
SOLUTIONPROFILE
The dynamic world of visual effects animation and
design requires innovations in storage solutions that
keep pace with the creative process. By carefully apply-
ing new technology, studios have been able to improve
artistic quality, shave time off production schedules,
and create more scenes. The many benefits include
higher-quality work, faster time to market, more simulta-
neous projects, and greater revenue.
In the production of films, games and commercials
worldwide, Hitachi Data Systems network storage
platforms are the very core of our customers’ computer
graphics networks. These systems’ industry-leading
performance is driving stunning improvements in ren-
dering speeds and dramatically reducing artist wait
times. Hitachi Data Systems storage systems remove
the bottlenecks from even the most powerful render
farms, resulting in faster renders, fewer dropped frames,
and far less rework. With storage systems, faster data
access enables artists and producers to focus on deliv-
ering their creative vision, rather than worrying about
storage capacity.
Large concurrent projects, whether for ingest, post-
production or delivery, often require fast deployment
for storage upgrades. These projects also present
studios with unpredictable data requirements. Our net-
worked storage has a unique modular architecture that
makes it easy and affordable to support this dynamic

environment, with features to adapt to spi-
raling market and creative demands (see
Figure 1).
■■ Flash-Based Performance and
Hardware Acceleration: Employs unique
Hitachi architecture; enables speedier
media workflows with higher performing
Tier-0 storage.
■■ Capacity Efficiency (Primary Dedupe):
Leverages Hitachi NAS Platform (HNAS)
hardware-accelerated primary deduplication
to minimize cost of the storage infrastruc-
ture without sacrificing performance.
■■ Intelligent Tiered Storage: Enables
consolidation and deployment of different
types of storage within the same network
attached storage (NAS) system, based
on the profile of post-production applica-
tions, and optimizes active-file disk drives
with lower cost archival disk drives.
■■ Massive Scaling: Allows up to 8-nodes
and 32PB useable capacity in a single
namespace.
■■ Extreme Throughput: Supports industry-
leading I/O rate of up to 1.2M NFS
operations per second (SPECsfs) and
an industry-leading throughput of up to
2000MB/sec.
■■ Dynamic Read Caching: Scales NFS
read-based workload profiles, accelerating
read-intensive application performance.
■■ Easy Upgrades: Futureproofs with soft-
ware upgradeable nondisruptive upgrades;
universal migrator feature helps simplify and
decrease migration times from 3rd-party
NAS systems.
By partnering with Hitachi Data Systems
you can remove storage constraints.
These systems reduce artist idle times, while
opening and closing source files, by providing
smooth, simultaneous access to shared data
sets. This access removes the need for dupli-
cate data sets, reducing versioning errors and
greatly simplifying data management.
Unmatched Performance and Lower
Production Costs
Built on patented hardware-accelerated
architecture, all Hitachi NAS Platform
systems deliver flexible, highly scalable,
high-performance storage solutions.
By improving data access and user loads
with extremely low latency, these systems
simplify collaboration among teams of art-
ists. Their enterprise-class management
tools provide ongoing access to each cre-
ative project’s critical files, which leads to
increased productivity in the digital pipeline
through improved performance and capacity.
Storage Systems That Scale With Your
Digital Workflow
Studios with heavy renders require maxi-
mum throughput, while others might require
lower throughput, at a reduced cost. To
scale capacity and performance, most
storage systems require an expensive and
potentially disruptive “forklift” upgrade.

Their incredibly reliable
performance has accelerated
our current work — and our
company’s ability to take
on bigger and more varied
projects.

Platform eliminate these issues by deliver-
ing modular, cost-effective scalability for a
variety of storage needs and budgets (see
Figure 2). For midrange requirements up to
16PB, and extreme requirements reaching
32PB, this product line delivers remarkable
performance, regardless of capacity. This
approach enables creative teams to lower
their TCO while also ramping up to take on
new projects, hire more artists, or assume
higher-resolution engagements. In addition,
these systems are designed to support
even higher capacities, ensuring that
today’s storage investment will scale seam-
lessly with your changing needs.
Intelligent Tiered Storage for Ultimate
Flexibility
Today’s environment for post-production stu-
dios mandates that efficient media workflows
deliver files to appropriate storage tiers that
balance cost, capacity, high-performance
and archive. Unlike traditional solutions that
require a separate storage server to address
each need, Hitachi Data Systems intelligent
tiered storage supports any combination
of disk drives behind a single Hitachi NAS
Platform system. With flash technology, stor-
age administrators can automatically migrate
higher-priority data to higher-performance
storage tiers. The storage architecture enables
administrators to manage throughput, storage
capacity and budgets, depending on digital
workflow requirements. This architecture pro-
vides the ultimate in flexibility and helps drive
down costs.

Versatile, Easy-to-Manage Storage
Systems
HNAS storage platforms are ideal for a
range of uses, but they are particularly well
suited to consolidating multiple, disparate
storage systems into a single easy-to-
manage storage solution. HNAS (gateway)
and HUS (unified) systems support multiple
applications and a large number of con-
current users, while requiring fewer storage
devices than traditional storage systems.
Their concurrent use of multiple protocols
enables the consolidation of Microsoft®
Windows®
clients, UNIX and Linux clients,
and clients requiring block data access, all
with a single network storage solution.
