Getting The Cloud But Keeping Control

The public cloud for years has tempted enterprises with the promise of much-needed agility and scalability that come with an elastic IT environment and of cost savings from not having to invest a lot of money upfront to buy a lot of infrastructure, adopting instead more flexible consumption models that allow organizations to pay only for what they use. …

Object Storage Makes A Push Into HPC

Four years ago, Cloudian was a six-year-old startup in an object storage space that, while the technology had been around for more than a decade, was seeing a surge of interest from cloud providers desperate for a storage architecture that only could scale to meet the demands of their rapidly growing datacenters, the massive amounts of data that was being generated and the need to be able to more easily move it between core on-premises datacenters and multiple cloud environments – and in the coming years the edge. …

OpenShifting The Hybrid Cloud Into High Gear

The cloud and the related edge already are rapidly influencing almost every aspect of IT, from the technology that is being adapted and created to how that technology is being consumed, as illustrated by the growing numbers of established hardware vendors – including Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Dell, and Cisco Systems – that now are offering more of their portfolio as services. …

For CPU Makers and OEMs Alike, It’s A Platform View

Dell took a look at the two weeks between the rollouts by AMD and Intel of their latest server processors and, after some debate, decided to unveil its entire portfolio of new and enhanced systems – featuring the new chips from both vendors – at the launch of AMD’s latest Epyc silicon rather than announce servers in line with the chip makers’ timing. …

Gelsinger Leads Emboldened Intel With Ice Lake Launch

The past several years haven’t been easy on Intel. The world’s top processor maker stumbled on its transition from 14 nanometer to 10 nanometer manufacturing and still finds itself behind rivals like AMD and Arm, which have made the move to 7 nanometer processes and which have line of sight on 5 nanometer. …

Why Not Networking As A Service? But How?

In 2019, Hewlett Packard Enterprise was the first top-tier tech vendor to make the plunge, announcing that it planned to make its entire portfolio – all of its hardware as well as software – available as a service by 2022, leveraging its GreenLake hybrid cloud platform to answer the call to make the on-premises datacenter experience as cloud-like as possible. …

Taking On DARPA’s FHE Security Challenge

Cybersecurity has never been easy. As the amount of business being done on the internet has grown, enterprises, smaller businesses, HPC institutions and other organizations have had to develop and embrace technologies designed to protect mission-critical data and applications from an increasingly sophisticated underworld of hackers, nation-states and other cyber-criminals. …

The Expedient Way To Build An Enterprise Cloud

The promises of the cloud – from agility and scalability to reduced costs and easier access to emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced analytics – have been out there for more than a decade and enterprises are continuing to push more of their operations to such hyperscale providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. …

IBM Leverages Cloud To Push The Encryption Envelope

The rapid adoption by enterprises of hybrid cloud and multicloud environments along with the rise of the Internet of Things, a much more remote workforce and other trends that have contributed to the increasingly distributed nature of modern IT has put the vast amounts of data that is being generated in a precarious position. …
