Building high-performance storage clusters with Veritas and Amazon EBS

Providing predictable storage performance for mission critical applications can be challenging. Doing so involves dealing with complex configurations in your storage systems to get the performance you need, such as by striping multiple disks or volumes together, or by investing in expensive storage hardware. None of these configurations are flexible, and it is hard to […]

Accelerating backups with Amazon EBS direct APIs and Commvault

As a critical part of data protection and disaster recovery (DR) readiness, backing up data is an integral part of data storage in the cloud or otherwise. AWS customers use Amazon EBS snapshots, which are point-in-time backups of EBS volumes, as part of their data protection strategy in the cloud, often as part of their […]

At ePlus, we help organizations navigate their technology options – […]

Clustered storage simplified: GFS2 on Amazon EBS Multi-Attach enabled volumes

One of the design patterns for high availability of mission critical applications is the use of shared storage. This architectural pattern enables you to access storage from multiple hosts simultaneously, making your applications resilient to node failures. Customers with demanding transaction processing systems, analytics workloads, or high performance computing clusters need highly available, high-performance storage […]

How Clumio improved their Amazon EBS backups using EBS direct APIs

At AWS re:Invent 2019, AWS launched Amazon EBS direct APIs. This feature enables AWS customers to list the blocks in an EBS snapshot, compare the differences between two EBS snapshots, and directly read data from EBS snapshots. To perform these tasks before AWS released the EBS direct APIs, you would need to launch temporary Amazon […]
