  • The vulnerability of backup in a predominantly remote + cloud world

    Backup is fundamental to IT, but things have changed a lot recently. The pandemic has had a key impact in this. With the rise in cloud working it also threw our ability to protect cloud data into sharp focus, and raised the importance of cloud-to-cloud backup.

    In this e-guide we look at the effects of the pandemic on backup, including the increased prevalence of remote working and use of the cloud. Then we also look at where backups can go wrong, because it’s one thing to set backups jobs running but the crucial part is to know you can rely on being able to recover from them. We also focus in on the key differences between backups and snapshots, why they are not the same
    and how a good data protection strategy incorporates both methods.

  • Converged infrastructure: What enterprises need to know

    As enterprise IT environments become increasingly complex and multifaceted, datacentre operators are always seeking ways to make the infrastructure within their server farms easier to manage.

    Over the years, some of the converged infrastructure market’s biggest players have also teamed up with business application providers to bring appliances to market that are more closely tailored to the needs of the enterprise to market.

    In this e-guide, we round up some of the latest thinking and use cases for converged and hyper-converged infrastructure systems, as enterprises and hyperscale firms seek to reduce the complexity of their datacentres.
