Organizations continue to grow their data lakes in the cloud as they build out new and innovative analytics, machine-learning, and generative AI workloads. At the same time, these workloads often access data that requires compliance with stringent data security and privacy standards. These compliance frameworks typically specify additional requirements for encryption at-rest, which leads customers […]

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. Ideally they are seeking a cloud service with like-for-like functionality, and management similar to their on-premises infrastructure. The goal is to accelerate migration and deployment in the […]

Users face challenges in their digital transformation journey involving the migration of data across various platforms, on-premises file systems, and other cloud services. When using other cloud providers, scenarios arise where the seamless transfer of data becomes essential. Whether executing a one-time data transfer or integrating it into a scheduled workflow, minimizing business downtime is […]

Cost is top of mind for many enterprises, and building awareness of different cost contributors is the first step toward managing costs and improving efficiency. Costs for transferring data may segregate into common but low cost and less frequent but higher cost groups. Data about these two groups is mixed together, and separating them enables […]

One of the primary benefits of using memory mapping (MMAP) in applications is saving memory on the client, sharing data amongst multiple threads and processes, and reducing file system impact to the application. Users are constantly looking for ways to improve application performance, and often this means diving deep into their workloads’ storage profiles to […]

Over time, Enterprises may need to undertake operations or make modifications to their data as part of general data management, to address changing business needs, or to comply with evolving data-management regulations and best practices. As datasets being generated, stored, and analyzed continue to grow exponentially, the need for simplified, scalable, and reproduceable data management […]

The BMW Group (BMW) is a global manufacturer of premium automobiles and motorcycles, covering the brands BMW, BMW Motorrad, MINI, and Rolls-Royce. Since 2022, BMW has started using AWS to scale its capacity to handle vast increases in needed compute and storage capacity to build and test automated driving features, such as adaptive cruise control, […]

Enterprise users are looking for a scalable and resilient network-attached storage (NAS) solution with high throughput performance on AWS to support distributed systems running Windows and Linux workloads. Moreover, users like to have flexible deployment models so that storage over the network can be consolidated and managed by the infrastructure account for cost optimization and […]

Moving large volumes of data across your hybrid cloud environments can seem like a daunting task, especially when dealing with a litany of requirements that arise when working within the technical limits of network, storage, compute, and operating system layers, both on-premises and in the cloud. Users face additional challenges when balancing their Recovery Time […]
