Many organizations generate large quantities of data locally, including digital imagery, sensor data, and more. Customers require local compute and storage to ingest and enable real-time predications based on their data, and often preprocess this data locally before transferring to the cloud to unlock additional business value such analysis, reporting, and archiving. Automating transfers to […]

Disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity planning (BCP) are critical activities for any organization. During DR operations, after workloads are restored in the DR site, there are a series of steps and activities, such as application configurations and validations, that must be properly orchestrated and coordinated among many teams and functions in order to ensure […]

When developing a disaster recovery strategy, it is important to manage replicating the network configuration from your primary to recovery site, including (but not limited to) things like your access control lists (ACLs) and internet gateways.

Customers have been running Microsoft workloads on AWS for over 16 years. Through conversations with these customers, a common challenge we’ve found is that as they back up their Windows applications to fulfill data protection needs, they often spend significant time and manual effort managing the orchestration of backup workflows. The time- and labor-intensive process […]

Organizations around the world store billions of objects and files representing terabytes to petabytes of data. Data is often owned by different teams, departments, or business units, spanning multiple locations. As the amount of datastores, locations, and owners grow, you need a way to cost-effectively maintain visibility on important characteristics of your data, including based […]

Securely storing and authorizing access to data in the cloud is a top priority. One challenge faced by organizations is developing a consistent authorization experience to grant access to data for hybrid architectures. Workloads running on AWS can access data stored on services like Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) using AWS Identity and Access […]

Today’s demanding workloads such as database, rendering farm, analytics and ML workloads, have increasingly demanding IO requirements. These workloads need a reliable storage infrastructure that provides sufficient storage capacity, IOPS, and throughput. As customers move more workloads to the cloud, they want to benefit from the agility and performance capabilities of the cloud as their […]
