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

The New Demands on File Servers
● Global Access - multi-locations - remote workers
● Collaboration and multi-site sharing
● Performance becoming increasingly critical
● Data protection and retention vital

Why Legacy NAS Falls Short
● Single location
● Limited collaboration capabilities
● Might meet capacity OR performance, but not both
● Data protection doesn’t keep up with capacity

Why Not Move
NAS to Cloud?
● Lift and shift NAS keeps controller
limitations
● Uneven performance and cloud latency
issues
● No native collaboration (GFL) or
synchronization across multiple sites
● Data silos are preserved
● Not a Full solution: archive, backup, DR
require separate purchases

Where Does the Cloud Need Help?
● Global File System
● Enhanced Data Protection
● Edge Intelligence
● Tighter Cloud Security

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.

Webinar: Do Hyperconverged Systems Need File Services?

Storage Switzerland

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?

Webinar: What Your Object Storage Vendor Isn’t Telling You About NFS Support

Storage Switzerland

NFS has been the “go to” file system for large data stores but there is a new offering on the horizon…Object Storage. To help ease the transition, many Object Storage vendors have provided a gateway that allows their systems to look like NFS servers. The problem is that most of these implementations are very limiting and often create more problems than they fix. In this webinar Storage Switzerland and Caringo discuss why object storage systems are the heir apparent to NFS servers and how to make that transition without the typical roadblocks that NFS gateways create. Attend this webinar to learn: * What is Object Storage * Object Storage vs. NFS * Challenges of Object Storage without NFS * How NFS makes Object Storage more useful * Architecture of a typical NFS gateway * The Challenges of Hosting NFS on an Object Store

OpenStack Resources and Capacity Management - Shimon Benattar, Mark Rasin - O...

Cloud Native Day Tel Aviv

In this session we will present AT&T's vision on how to manage multiple OpenStacks. By 2020 AT&T is planning to move 80% of its network to the cloud and to so will need ~1000 sites which will all be running OpenStack. Managing multiple clouds raises resource management issues, these involv operative resource management and resource capacity planning. In order to manage multiple projects, images, flavors we created ORM (OpenStack Resource Manager) which AT&T is also planning to Open Source in 2017. In order to manage the capacity we need to understand the relationship between available, allocated and used resources, and their dependency on the timeline. We will review the information sources that can be useful for tracking cloud resources and look at the options to implement a reservation system that will help capacity planners to manage the resources. If we have time left we will briefly review the OpenStack Blazar project and the OPNFV Promise project that aim to address the problem in the subject, and we will discuss the possibility to implement your enterprise solution based on these projects, or alternatively using some commercially available product, or even building your own.

As an organization grows the number of use cases the data center needs to support increases with it. What starts out as a NAS for file sharing, moves to a SAN for database applications, and then storage for data protection. As the organization hits full stride it might look at arching to limit growth and a mobility solution to support a distributed workforce. The problem is each one of these storage types are silo’ed and have to be implemented, operated and maintained separately. As a result, storage ends up consuming a large chunk of the IT budget.

Webinar: Three Reasons Why NAS is No Good for AI and Machine Learning

Storage Switzerland

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are becoming mainstream initiatives at many organizations. Data is at the heart of AI and ML. Immediate access to large data sets is pivotal to successful ML outcomes. Without data, there is no learning. The goal of AI and ML is to try to simulate human thinking and understanding. AI and ML initiatives cannot however be realized unless the data processing layer has immediate access to, and a constant supply of, data. The problem is that NAS solutions, often those designed for HPC environments, is what most organizations try to leverage as the AI/ML storage architectures. Legacy storage systems, like NAS, cannot support AI and ML workloads, because they were architected when spinning disk and slower networking technologies were the industry standard. Join Storage Switzerland and WekaIO for our on demand webinar to learn the three reasons why NAS is no good for AI and ML: * NAS wasn’t architected to leverage today’s flash technology and can’t keep pace with the I/O demands, leaving GPUs starved for data * NAS has no or very rudimentary Cloud Integration. Tiering to the cloud can play an integral role in AI and ML workloads * NAS data protection schemes are expensive given the amount of data required to feed an AI/ML environment

In this deck from the Rice Oil & Gas Conference, John Fragalla from Cray presents: Data Storage & I/O Performance: Solving I/O Slowdown: The "Noisy Neighbor" Problem "In Oil and Gas, when using shared storage, mixed workloads can have a big impact on I/O performance causing considerable slowdown when running small I/O alongside large I/O on the same storage system. With the increase adoption of Flash, and new features in Lustre, such as Progressive File Layout (PFL) and Data on Metadata (DoM), Storage can be tuned to automatically isolate different workloads to different storage media to accelerate small I/O without disrupting large sequential I/O performance, using the right mix of Flash and Disk transparently. In this presentation, Cray will share real benchmark results on the impacts of the "Noisy Neighbor" application has on sequential I/O, and with the right storage tuning and flash capacity, how to optimize the storage to meet the demanding workloads of Oil and Gas to accelerate performance for a mixed workload environment."

Webinar: NAS vs Object - Can NAS Make a Comeback?

Storage Switzerland

For over a decade Network Attached Storage (NAS) was the go to file storage device for organizations needing to store large amounts of unstructured data. But unstructured data is changing. While large file use cases are still prevalent, small file use cases are becoming more dominant. Workloads like artificial intelligence, analytics and IoT are typically driven by millions, if not billions of small files. Object Storage is often hailed as the heir apparent but is it? Can file systems be redesigned to continue to support traditional NAS workloads while also supporting modern, small file and high velocity workloads? Join Storage Switzerland and Qumulo for our webinar, “NAS vs. Object — Can NAS Make a Comeback,” to learn the state of unstructured data storage and if NAS file systems can provide a superior alternative to object storage. Join us on our event to learn •. Why traditional NAS solutions fall short •. Why object storage systems haven't replaced NAS • How to bridge the gap by modernizing NAS file systems •.

Webinar: Designing a Storage Consolidation Strategy for Today, the Future and...

Storage Switzerland

Most storage consolidation strategies fail because they attempt to consolidate to a single piece of storage hardware. To successfully consolidate storage, IT professionals need to look at consolidation strategies that worked. Server consolidation was VMware’s first use case. It was successful because instead of consolidating hardware, VMware consolidated the environment under a single hypervisor (ESXi) and console (vCenter) but still provided organizations with hardware flexibility. A successful storage consolidation strategy needs to follow a similar formula by providing a single software solution that controls a variety of storage hardware, but that software also has to extract maximum performance and value from each hardware platform on which it sits. Join Storage Switzerland and StorOne in which we discuss how to design a storage consolidation strategy for today, the future and the cloud.

Webinar: Three Steps to Modernizing Backup Storage

Storage Switzerland

Backup software is continuously improving. Solutions like Veeam Backup and Replication deliver instant recoveries, enabling virtual machine volumes to instantiate directly on the backup device, without having to wait for data to transfer back to primary storage. These solutions can also move older backups to higher capacity, lower cost object storage or cloud storage systems. To deliver meaningful performance during instant recovery without exceeding the backup storage budget requires IT to re-think its backup storage architecture. Modern backup processes need high performance, low capacity systems to deliver high-performance instant recovery, as well as high-capacity, modest performance systems to store backup data long term and software to manage data placement for the most appropriate recovery performance while not breaking the budget.

It's time to consider what backup independence means. The technology is there for production storage to replace backup but most organizations haven’t fully leveraged it. Join Storage Switzerland and ClearSky Data for our webinar to learn how to design a self-protecting production storage infrastructure that not only protects data but replaces backup. Join us to learn: •. The difference between data protection and backup •. Why most production systems can’t replace backup • How to architect a production system that is fully protected and achieves backup inde-pendence

Webinar: 5 Critical Enterprise Cloud Backup Capabilities

Storage Switzerland

The cloud seems like a logical destination for backup data. It is by definition off-site, and the organization no longer needs to worry about allocating valuable floor space to secondary data storage. The problem is that most cloud backup solutions fall short of delivering enterprise class data protection. Most cloud backup solutions are too complicated to set up and upgrade, don't provide complete platform support, don't provide flexible recovery options, can't meet the enterprises RTO/RPO requirements and don't provide a class of support that enables organizations to lower their operational expense. In this live webinar Storage Switzerland and Carbonite discuss the five critical capabilities that enterprises, looking to move to cloud backup, need to make sure their solution has. Join us for this event to learn: 1. Why switch to the cloud for enterprise backup? 2. The five critical capabilities enterprises MUST have in cloud backup solutions. What they are and why enterprises need them. 3. Why and where most solutions miss the mark 4. How Carbonite Server delivers the five critical capabilities

Webinar: Does Your Data Center Need NVMe?

Storage Switzerland

NVMe storage systems and NVMe networks promise to reduce latency further and increase performance beyond what SAS based flash systems and current networking technology can deliver. To take advantage of that performance gain however, the data center must have workloads that can take advantage of all the latency reduction and performance improvements that NVMe offers. Vendors emphatically state that NVMe is the next must-have technology, yet many still continue to provide SAS based arrays using traditional networks. How do IT planners know then, that investing in NVMe will truly provide their organizations the benefits of NVMe for their demanding applications and see a measurable return on investment? Just creating a test environment to perform an NVMe evaluation can break the IT budget! Register now to join Storage Switzerland, Virtual Instruments, and SANBlaze as we look at the state of the data center and provide IT planners with the information they need to decide if NVMe is an investment they should make now or if they should wait a year or more. The key is determining which applications can benefit from NVMe-based approaches. In this event, IT professionals will learn - About NVMe, NVMe Storage Systems and NVMe over Fabric Networking - The Performance Potential of NVMe Storage and Networks - What attributes are needed for a workload to take advantage of NVMe - Why NVMe creates problems for current IT testing strategies - Why a Workload Simulation approach is the only practical way to test NVMe - How to build a storage performance validation practice

That’s why you should join our webinar and hear from storage expert, George Crump, from Storage Switzerland and Druva’s W. Curtis Preston, Chief Technologist, as they discuss: • Why protecting a distributed data center is challenging with traditional methods • How a cloud-centralized backup strategy can be a game changer for your organization • How Druva can help you drastically improve data protection quality, reduce costs, and simplify global management and configuration?

Webinar: How to Put an End to Hyperconverged Silos

Storage Switzerland

Hyperconverged Infrastructure is supposed to simplify the data center by creating an environment that automatically scales as new applications and workloads are added to it. The problem is that the current generation of HCI solutions can only address specific use cases like virtual desktops or tier 2 applications. First generation HCI solutions don’t have the per node power to accommodate enterprise workloads and tier 1 applications. The organization needs a next generation HCI solution, HCI 2.0, that can address HCI 1.0 shortcomings and fulfill the original promises of HCI; Lower costs, faster innovation, simpler scale, single vendor and unified management. The combination enables HCI 2.0 to handle a variety of storage intensive workloads.

Storage Switzerland

Managing data is about more than managing capacity growth; organizations today need to adhere to increasingly strict data privacy, compliance and governance regulations. Privacy regulations like GDPR and California’s Consumer Privacy Act place new expectations on organizations that require them to not only protect data but also organize it so it can be found and deleted on request. Traditional backup and archive are ill-equipped to help organization adhere to these new regulations. In this webinar join Storage Switzerland and Hitachi Vantara for a roundtable discussion on the meaning of these various regulations, the impact of them on traditional storage infrastructures and how to design a storage architecture that can meet today’s regulations as well as tomorrows.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan Dix

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024 https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/ As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics

Dorra BARTAGUIZ

After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
