Developers have been using HTTP methods such as GET, POST, and DELETE for a significant period of time to interact with RESTful APIs. The widespread adoption of these methods is largely due to their user-friendliness. Users who are transitioning from on-premises NetApp storage to Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP can streamline their operations using its […]

Protecting against accidental or malicious deletion is a key element of data protection. Immutability protects data in-place, preventing unintended changes or deletions. However, sometimes it isn’t clear for how long data should be made immutable. Users in this situation are looking for a solution that maintains short-term immutability, indefinitely. They want to make sure their […]

Organizations often need to store and serve various types of static content, such as data sets, archives, and file repositories, on the web. This content is typically accessed by end-users for research and analysis purposes or general content distribution.

Do you need to capture terabytes or petabytes of data from the field, but struggle to offload the data efficiently, keep up with storage capacity, and maintain equipment in extreme environmental conditions? We commonly hear these challenges from customers who are capturing data in remote locations for future analysis. It is time consuming to offload […]

To safeguard data against natural disasters and ransomware attacks, many AWS users opt to protect their data by creating snapshots and replicating them to different AWS Regions. It is crucial for these users to monitor snapshots and associated data transfers for inter-regional costs, allowing them to provide accurate chargebacks to both internal and external stakeholders. […]

Users who choose to migrate workloads to the cloud prefer to do so without modifying application code and without being required to learn new methods for managing data.
