If you own a car, you already know the concept of preventive maintenance: change oil and filters regularly and the likelihood of your engine failure will dramatically decrease. Your engine is still fine, there aren’t any weird noises and it operates as it should, but you still plan on doing some maintenance because otherwise the costs of replacing a broken engine or gearbox will be much higher. And not only that, try to remember a case when the car broke NOT at the moment when you needed it most. All this means that without preventive maintenance, you are increasing your chances of losing money, time and maybe getting a couple of new grey hairs. Read more

We live in a digital era where businesses use, analyze and rely on data, their processes and databases. An important part of data is its integrity because it ensures data is unchanged, undivided and in its complete, consistent form. More importantly, data integrity means the data is trustworthy. Organizations make data driven decisions, and if the data has been altered or changed it can have a negative impact on the business. Data integrity can also come into play when it comes to meeting different data regulations and compliance standards that are requirements in certain industries today. Let's explore what data integrity is, the different types of integrity and how it relates to data quality and security. Read more

Regardless of what percentage of your organization’s mission-critical workloads are running in the cloud today, it’s likely far more than it was a year ago. This is due to a combination of net-new workloads, as well as migrating in from data centers, leading me to a Pinterest-worthy platitude – the life (of your data) is a journey, not a destination. The best infrastructures for our workloads today may not be the best tomorrow. We witnessed this with the decoupling and migration of the majority of our physical servers' OS, applications and data to virtualized platforms. Today, its rapid acceleration to the cloud, especially true in the light of COVID-19, further accelerating this shift. Read more

Modern backup seems to be such a hot term at the moment, and everyone is jumping on the bandwagon. It reminds me of those shopping network commercials late at night (well I guess they’re 24 hours a day now ... I’m showing my age!) where the host is screaming about the product and how it will change your life. There is a lot of that going around, so how do you weed out what is good and what is not? Let’s take a look at ways you can approach this exact task. Read more
