Good from experience – and well developed I have already revealed my enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI) and what I personally have in common with it here on the blog. In simple terms, the technology is based on the four pillars of compute, data, algorithms and humans. Its efficiency and knowledge have risen to such […]
The lines between security and IT organizations are being blurred. With the rapid proliferation of video surveillance data and the rise of intelligent video management systems, security personnel now find themselves responsible for fast-growing IT infrastructure. In addition to keeping people and property safe, they now must also protect and manage terabytes—or even petabytes—of critical […]
Where We Left Off In October, we announced our new server-side application software, MAX Data, that revolutionizes how we will use memory in servers. MAX Data does this how? MAX Data is software that runs on the application server and provides a file system that spans the PMEM and the storage tier. Applications stored […]
In any competition, getting to the top step of a podium is gratifying, but staying on top year after year takes continued dedication, focus, and hard work. In 2013, Gartner first recognized NetApp as a Leader in their Magic Quadrant (MQ) for General-Purpose Disk Arrays, and we’ve remained in the Leaders quadrant for 6 […]
Last fall, NetApp published some eye-popping performance numbers for FlexGroup volumes. The test performed was a standard benchmark for software build workloads. These workload types characteristically include many files, high ingest rates, and a large amount of metadata operations. Good news for NetApp: This is a FlexGroup volume’s sweet spot. The numbers last […]
Those who know me well, know that I thrive on competition and love to win. And I get a thrill when the work we do at NetApp puts us on top. In the newly published SPEC SFS2014 SWBUILD benchmark testing, AFF A800, the industry’s first all-NVMe flash storage system inside and out, delivered mind-blowing performance […]
While FabricPool is not brand new, NetApp has done a little bit more of a push on it recently with their emphasis on cloud. As more and more people are becoming cloud-aware, whether it’s public or private, keeping the cost of performance-tier storage manageable is always a relevant conversation. I should start off by […]
Deep learning (DL) models are enabling a paradigm shift in how intelligence can be built into applications and real-world, daily life scenarios. Until recently, experimentation with deep learning models was largely limited to the scientific and research community. Now fueled by the abundance of data, computational power allowing for accelerated parallel processing, and the availability of software frameworks […]
Many companies think that the basis of digital transformation is in analytics platforms and applications. However, central business process systems such as SAP are just as important. It is essential to combine the worlds of real-time analytics and core systems in order to leverage the full potential of experience and expertise. But that’s easier […]
High-definition (HD) 1080p cameras and ultra-HD 4K cameras are all the rage in video surveillance right now. In fact, HD 1080p cameras are now so affordable that they’ve become the new standard for home and commercial surveillance. And 4K cameras are the minimum for video analytics. Whether you’re deploying 1 or 1,000 HD cameras, […]
On the Rugged Road to Las Vegas and Beyond… We just completed a very successful 2018 Customer and Partner Event at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, where we were had a huge number of technical and business conversations with the 5,000+ attendees. As you know, NetApp is a data-driven company that is […]
This week on the podcast, we talk about the new iteration of ONTAP’s NAS acceleration feature, FlexCache! Join us as we discuss with NetApp’s Technical Director Pranoop Erasani, FlexCache PM Shriya Paramkusam and FlexCache TME Chris Hurley. Each week, the Tech ONTAP Podcast discusses all-things NetApp, interviews subject-matter experts, and provides insights into the storage […]
