In this article presented by Intel, Ned Bellavance discusses hardware flexibility and why hardware will still matter even as more embrace the cloud.

In this article presented by HYCU, Ned Bellavance discusses how HYCU’s Protégé is a great example of a cross-cloud platform built by folks who understand the problem space and have a deep lineage in data protection.

Ned Bellavance interviews HYCU Senior Vice President of Products Subbiah Sundaram for Gestalt IT about the company’s data protection solution built from the ground up with the cloud-native operational model in mind.

Data protection in the modern era is a booming marketplace that demands fresh approaches to the challenges companies are feeling today.  They need endless capacity, high performance, and added value from data protection systems. Pure Storage is taking some interesting approaches to data management and protection to meet those challenges and provide additional value to the consumer. 

Deploying an application on multiple clouds presents some unique challenges. While each cloud has similar constructs in terms of compute, networking, and storage, the implementation of those constructs differs to a lesser or greater degree in each public cloud. Dealing with the vagaries of a particular cloud’s implementation requires a certain level of sophistication and expertise, making a multi-cloud deployment an administrative nightmare. What an organization needs is a consistent deployment model across multiple clouds without requiring in-depth knowledge of each cloud’s implementation. In this piece, Ned Bellavance looks at how Pure Storage provides storage predictability and consistency in multi-cloud using Kubernetes and the Pure Service Orchestrator.

Orchestration and integration may be what people think of most when in comes to DevOps. But in this post, Ned Bellavance looks at how to close the DevOps feedback loop with measuring and optimizing application performance.

Ned Bellavance and Stephen Foskett look at the current cloud storage landscape. Making sense of it can be a daunting task, even when just looking at Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. It can be tough to make a true comparison across cloud when considering cost, performance, and reliability. How does this cacophony of choice come into play in a multi-cloud world?

Applications are increasingly being developed with a unified development and operations approach known as DevOps.
