For decades, video storage has been the domain of the security organization. And for decades that’s been just fine. Traditional video surveillance deployments that record data to dedicated digital video recorders (DVRs) or network video recorders (NVRs) don’t need a lot of specialized skills to manage—if they’re small, that is. In small numbers, these systems […]
Over the past few years, NetApp has transformed into a new company, innovating as never before with SAN as a major focus.

With so many “next-generation” data management solutions available today, why would anyone choose SAN (Storage Area Network) over something like HCI or just moving everything straight to the cloud? I see SAN as a solution to a problem. SAN takes away the complexity of a multi-server environment by consolidating storage onto a single, high-performance […]

Disaster Recovery is one kind of security planning, where user can protect the data with precautions and recover the data in case of a disaster without data loss.
