For many stateful containerized applications, such as those using Kubernetes orchestration, each stateful pod (the smallest deployable container object) may require dedicated persistent storage. A block storage solution is a good fit due to its high performance, low latency, and persistence attributes. If a compute instance has more compute resources to spare, you can only […]

This blog covers performance metrics, optimizations, and configuration tuning specific to OSS Spark running on Amazon EKS. For customers using or considering Amazon EMR on EKS, refer to the service documentation to get started and this blog post for the latest performance benchmark. Performance is top of mind for customers running streaming, extract transform load […]

Building and testing software is a resource-intensive operation that usually involves a fleet of very powerful servers waiting in the wings for build jobs. With the rise of cloud native continuous integration/continuous development (CI/CD) systems on Kubernetes (i.e., Tekton, Jenkins X), we’re seeing a shift from the large (and often over-provisioned) static fleet of build […]

Enterprises running critical applications in containers may require access to a persistent storage layer that extends beyond the lifetime of a container instance. A block storage solution such as Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) is a good fit due to its high performance, low latency, and persistence which ensures that data can be re-attached to […]

Kubernetes is a scalable system that offers rapid and easy containerized application deployments for both stateless and long-running, stateful applications. Many Kubernetes applications require a storage system that integrates with the Kubernetes Container Storage Interface (CSI) to create file and block volumes, scale storage, take snapshots, and create clones. Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP supports […]

The rapid maturation of cloud tools for high-performance workloads in the past several years has made it possible for household names like T-Mobile, Toyota, and Rivian to move their high-performance analytics and AI/ML environments to the cloud. These are hugely data-intensive workflows that many companies five years ago believed would never be able to be […]

A large percentage of websites today rely on Content Management Systems (CMS) which provide content creators, who may have little to no experience in web development, with the ability to easily publish their content to a website for distribution to their end users. By far, the most popular CMS platform today is WordPress. More developers […]

Many customers use multiple AWS accounts managed by AWS Organizations to create security and cost boundaries around business units, projects, or applications. AWS Organizations helps you centrally manage and govern your environment as you grow and scale your AWS resources. In some cases, an application in one AWS account must access data in another. As […]

Johnson & Johnson data science and business experts collaborate to incorporate science into healthcare solutions, including medical device and diagnostic technologies, consumer healthcare products, and pharmaceuticals. Johnson & Johnson needed storage to share and perform analytics on their data science workbench for genomics neuroscience, R&D, and drug discovery. A massively scalable solution was required to […]
