Challenges in Testing Enterprise Network Attached Storage (NAS) Products
Unstructured data is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of more than 60% over the next few years. Enterprises are seeking effective ways to manage this unstructured data and exploit value out of it. High-end Network Attached Storage (NAS) solutions are trying to address these daunting challenges through hardware acceleration and
SSD (Solid-State Drive) – Adoption and Business Value
A SSD (solid-state drive) is a device which uses an assimilated circuit as memory to store data persistently. Unlike HDD, SSD does not have any mechanical moving components and compared to other electromechanical disks, SSD is shock resistant, does not make noise, is faster, and has lower latency. Server hard drives have not been
Cloud Integrated Storage – Advantages & Challenges
Cloud is the most powerful and cost-effective way to address data explosion challenges. It should just not be used as a vast, inexpensive repository of old files. When used with the right set of technologies, cloud-integrated storage can deliver a whole new range of enterprise benefits, including global file sharing, rapid disaster recovery and simple, centralized

REST API Security – Best Practices
Software industry has been undergoing change at a rapid pace for quite some time now and so are the ways to design, develop, deploy and support software applications. From large mainframe systems to microservice architectures, the industry sure has travelled a long journey (or rather still continues to do so). And in the process, software design
What is Hybrid Scalable Converged Unified Storage?
Phew! The technical jargons are going the medical naming convention, isn’t it? Practically, they all can be separated to be on their own, so let’s define them separately & then combine them together to see what we get. Layman definition of the individual Terms: Hybrid: It literally means many things build into 1 single Unit, Scalable: It means
Key Mergers & Acquisitions in the Storage Industry – 2016
The storage industry has been going through a lot of dynamism and churn recently. The dynamism within this domain is further fueled by mergers and acquisitions (M&A). In the past, this industry has witnessed data storage M&A activities at a fierce rate. But things have changed now; both acquirers and targets have thinned out
An Introduction to Docker Technology
Containers are tools that run multiple applications on a single host. Docker is one such open source tool which runs on Linux. Docker technology is very similar to Virtualization, except the fact that containers are more efficient and cost effective while virtualizing the operating system because they run multiple workloads on a single host. Docker
