Started with your new company? Great! Now it’s time to have some boosting plans for your company’s growth. But as your company grows, you will have to take care of the emergencies that might occur at some point that warrants crisis management in IT. The crisis can be in any form – natural disaster, data breach or product malfunction and you might be the entity for it to happen. In case of disaster weather, sysadmins need to take the hot seat if the user machines aren’t working quickly, since it’s a massive task. But as said, people only remember how you handled it and not the mistake they committed.

Using Software Abstraction and Commodity Storage Hardware in Hyper-Scale Centers | @CloudExpo #Cloud
There are many challenges involved in architecting a resilient, scalable storage infrastructure for the next generation of hyper-scale modern data centers.
In our previous blog post, we covered how to build a disaggregated storage model out of commodity hardware for lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in today’s hyper-scale data centers. Deploying commodity hardware usually requires an intelligent orchestration and management software like FreeStor® to provide an abstraction layer separating heterogeneous storage hardware from the applications.

2016 Requires Bold Decisions on Cloud By @SarahLahav | @CloudExpo #Cloud
The companies that are succeeding with their use of public cloud services are sharing similar stories online and at industry conferences about what they consider to be the leading drivers of their progress. These are usually in the form of bold, strategic decisions that demonstrate different thinking to where they were some years ago.
These bold decisions reflect the changing focus on cloud to above that of the original Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model and toward the NoOps, higher-order cloud services such as Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). Decisions such as adopting server-less models, embracing an open source software (OSS) approach as part of becoming a “software company,” and choosing to break with decades of IT supplier relationships – they all have a profound impact across the industry.

To effectively manage this shift, leading enterprises are reorganizing how the business side of IT is accomplished. When this reality is coupled with the rising cost of poor cybersecurity, decisions often rise to the board level.
Network Device Management | @CloudExpo #BigData #SDN #IoT #M2M #API
Today, “network device management” means different things to different people, and the reality is that IT organizations do it, or at least do what they consider network device management to be, to vastly varying degrees, including some who do none at all (hopefully this isn’t you).
At least part of the reason network device management has become such an ambiguous thing is because what we consider to be a network device is constantly evolving. At one point, network devices were largely just routers and switches. Back then, even if one added end-user workstations into the mix, things were fairly simple.
