In this Tech Field Day Showcase article presented by Interlock, Max Mortillaro discusses how Integrity and consistency are crucial for any dataset but are often overlooked during migrations, especially when moving from legacy to modern, incompatible systems. Cross-protocol migrations make it challenging to maintain data consistency, permissions, and integrity. Interlock’s A3 DATAFORGE solutions address these challenges, ensuring data consistency and reliability across the application lifecycle, ultimately supporting successful migration projects.

Myriad is the logical evolution of Quantum’s storage portfolio. The solution bridges the gap that existed between StorNext and ActiveScale by introducing unified file and object storage capabilities in a scale-out architecture. As its predecessors focus on traditional storage use cases, Myriad marks a clear inflection point for the company. Based on a radically modern architecture, it is designed for the most demanding workloads of its time, such as AI. Launching with a base set of services, the solution’s initial feature-set is sufficient for the most pressing needs around capacity, performance, and scalability, with aspects reminiscent of the approach adopted by hyperscalers.

In this Tech Note presented by Solidigm, Max Mortillaro discuses how the Solidigm P5-D5430 QLC SSD drive establishes a new milestone for QLC flash. Its massive improvements in endurance and capacity demonstrate that QLC flash is the new normal in mainstream, read-intensive workloads. Clearly aimed at large datacenters and hyperscalers where storage density, outstanding reliability, and low cost per GB are key factors, the P5-D5430 QLC SSDs is a key enabler to even more robust and massively scalable data stores, allowing better energy efficiency and storage density.

In this article presented by Solidigm, Max Mortillaro discusses how the combination proposed by Supermicro and Solidigm enables a seamless multi-petabyte scale storage that is ideal for organizations like hyperscalers, xSPs, and large enterprises with an ever-growing need for capacity-oriented storage. Alternatively, from a sustainability perspective, it ensures greener storage deployments with a significantly reduced energy footprint.

In this article presented by Dell Technologies, Max Mortillaro discusses how Dell PowerStore’s enterprise-grade storage solution that can be deployed across a large spectrum of use cases and locations.

In this article presented by Intel, Max Mortillaro discusses what Compute Express Link is and what the benefits are compared to Optane.

In this article presented by Dell Technologies, Max Mortillaro discusses how Dell Trusted Infrastructure allows organizations to protect data and systems, enhance cyber resiliency, and overcome security complexity through a modern, resilient, and intelligent zero trust approach.

Not all AI consumers are interested in diverting their limited resources and time into becoming an IT infrastructure system integrator. The breadth of work needed to ready the IT infrastructure resources needed so that developers can start their work can be dizzying.In highly competitive industries, three to six months of delay on critical, competition-driven business initiatives can make a huge difference. With that in mind, Max Mortillaro looks at Pure Storage’s AIRI, a fully integrated AI-ready infrastructure stack that enables organizations to spend more time on delivering value and achieve a faster ROI.

With DirectFlash Fabric, Pure Storage not only addresses the oxymoron of delivering simple and fast direct access storage with enterprise-class features. It also does so without forcing its customers to purchase a new storage array. Max Mortillaro looks at why the NVMe over Fabrics revolution is marching on.

The benefits and tradeoffs of the cloud are well known in IT. Public cloud provides allow organizations to quickly spin up compute or storage resources, but come with hidden costs. When looking at a multi-cloud strategy, these costs can quickly snowball. INFINIDAT’s recently released Neutrix Cloud offers something different, delivering all of the capabilities of an enterprise-grade InfiniBox storage system for Tier 1 applications, bundled in a cloud consumption model that helps organizations achieve cost efficiencies while maintaining sovereignty on their data.
