Enterprises are drowning in data. Structured, semi-structured or unstructured data for the modern, data-driven enterprise is everything, everywhere, all at once. But that’s also a challenge for enterprises looking to transform their data into usable information for business success. The sheer volume of data is challenging the ability of enterprises to find trustworthy, reliable data to drive their business decisions. Traditional data catalogs offer only structured data discovery.
In today’s high-velocity digital arena, businesses are thrust into the whirlwind of global events, rapid technological advancements, and the incessant push for innovation. Yet, amidst the tempest of mergers, digital acceleration, and shifting tech paradigms, charting a confident path towards cloud migration can be daunting.
From electronic medical records and monitoring devices, to personalized medicine and real-time decision-making, data is critical at every turn within modern healthcare. However, the sheer volume and complexity of healthcare data is posing increasing challenges on medical centers and professionals.
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.
