In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, businesses face numerous challenges when it comes to data management and protection. Defining effective backup, disaster recovery (DR), and business continuity objectives in particular, stand out as crucial. At Hitachi Vantara, we understand the importance of ensuring data resilience and uninterrupted operations for businesses that have embraced or are considering cloud or hybrid-cloud architectures.
When it comes to implementing hybrid cloud architectures, organizations with existing data centers have a couple of options to connect to a cloud provider(s): 1) provision a private network circuit or 2) use a site-to-site virtual private network. There are pros and cons to each option. Option 1 provides better security and higher performance since it is a private link. However, it can be expensive, even more so if a second connection is needed for redundancy.
The shift from single public cloud architectures to hybrid multi-cloud continues at enterprises around the globe, as organizations look for greater control, lower costs, and improved performance. I had the opportunity recently to speak with Vaughn Eisler, director of business development at Equinix, about this massive shift and some of the complex reasons behind them. Eisler sees several reasons for the movement.
Hitachi Vantara has once again been recognized as a leader and fast mover in the 2023 GigaOm Radar for Unstructured Data Management: Infrastructure-Focused Solutions, marking the third consecutive year we have achieved this honor. The report emphasizes the growing complexity of unstructured data management and highlights the importance of having a solution that can seamlessly handle data movement at scale automatically.
With the advent of cloud services, IT is transforming and evolving from being traditionally data center-centric to data-centric. The data center is no longer a physical location. It extends beyond the walls of the enterprise, to the cloud, and the edge where the majority of data is being generated.
By now, most healthcare leaders know that their sector is a top target for ransomware.
