Effective October 28, 2024, new customers will no longer be able to create a new Amazon FSx File Gateway (FSx File Gateway). If you would like to use the service, please create an FSx File Gateway prior to October 28, 2024. To begin using FSx File Gateway, customers can navigate to the Storage Gateway console in AWS […]

When managing a hybrid-cloud infrastructure, monitoring system health is essential for maintaining business continuity. Setting up comprehensive monitoring provides visibility into performance and availability of infrastructure components. By establishing alert thresholds and promptly responding to alarms, administrators can identify degraded performance or outages early. Quickly diagnosing and fixing the issues maximizes uptime. AWS Storage Gateway, […]

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) involves managing IT infrastructure through code and automation tools to reduce manual management prone to errors, slow scaling, and overhead. For organizations implementing a hybrid cloud infrastructure, automation can ensure uniformity, scalability, and cost reduction while getting cloud resources provisioned efficiently. Automated provisioning and configuration enable organizations to adapt, innovate, and […]

Migrating data to the cloud requires experience with different data types and the ability to preserve source data structure and metadata attributes. Customers often have on-premises file data stored on traditional file servers, retaining original timestamp of data creation for varying reasons including data lifecycle management. Customers find it challenging to identify a path to […]

Exact Sciences operates the laboratories across the world that produce data that is critical to performing analysis and diagnostics to classify cancer modalities, treatments, and therapeutics. The laboratories generate large data sets from on-premises genomic sequencing devices that must be sent to the cloud for processing. Once in the cloud, we process the data to […]

Many customers have adopted an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) process within their organization to streamline and optimize provisioning infrastructure. Without an IaC practice in place, it becomes increasingly difficult to manage the scale of today’s infrastructure. IaC can help your organization manage IT infrastructure needs while also improving consistency and reducing errors and manual configuration. […]

Businesses across different industries can face several challenges when managing their storage, including new redundancy requirements across locations, hardware renewals, and maximum capacity limits. To purchase additional hardware, companies typically have to take an investment that involves capacity planning for the next three to five years, as well as a potentially lengthy procurement process for […]

Customers rehosting applications in the cloud that deal with large files and unstructured data can benefit by utilizing object storage from a performance, scalability, and cost perspective, as compared to block or file storage. If a legacy or COTS (commercial-off-the-shelf) application being migrated doesn’t inherently support object storage services like Amazon S3, it may be […]

Customers running workloads on an SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) database (previously known as Sybase ASE) regularly take database backups to meet their disaster recovery (DR) and data protection compliance. Critical workloads often require a longer database backup retention period due to regulatory requirements. Storing these database backup files on-premises involves higher capacity, increased cost, […]

Virtual tapes offer a great replacement for cumbersome and expensive physical tapes and are ideal for hybrid workloads looking to take advantage of cloud scale and availability. Virtual tapes can already be less costly than physical tapes and offer more flexibility, less overhead, and better security, but you can save even more money through proper […]
