Hybrid Cloud NAS Enablement

For most enterprises dealing with increased security threats, limiting machine data collection is not an option. But with finite IT budgets, few organizations can continue to absorb the high costs of scaling high-end Network Attached Storage (NAS) or moving to and expanding a block-based storage footprint. Join this webinar to discover options for more cost-effective solutions that enable large-scale machine data ingestion and fast data access for security analytics.

You’ll learn:
- The common challenges companies see when scaling security workflows
- Why a high-performance cache works to solve these issues
- How to integrate cloud into processing and storage for additional scalability and efficiencies

Presenters will build an actionable framework in just thirty minutes and then take questions.

Enterprises aren't the only organizations that can benefit from big data. Medium and large businesses can too. The challenge is, can these businesses build the same big data infrastructure enterprises do? The short answer is, they can't. But the secret is, they don’t have to.

In this webinar, join Storage Switzerland and Avere Systems as they show you how to shift large workload compute processing into the cloud in just 10 minutes. This quick onramp to unlimited cores can level the playing field and improve your ability to compete with the global giants.

While cloud computing and storage are where IT is going, it is important to get the most value out of your existing data center assets. Seamless integration between these assets and cloud resources is key to optimizing each to match agency needs. But, how difficult is it to build a hybrid cloud architecture? How do you maximize performance while keeping security and cost in check?

Ready to learn more? Please join Avere Systems, Google, and Carahsoft for a webcast as we explore how to approach integration between your existing architecture and Google Cloud Platform.

Attendees of this webcast will learn:
- Why and when to use Hybrid Cloud Architectures
- Advantages of using Google Compute Engine and Google Cloud Storage services to government agencies
- How to provide seamless integration between existing clients, network attached storage resources, and remote Google Cloud Platforms services

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has brought an influx of large-scale data and ever-growing demands for compute, resulting in a challenge for those in science informatics. To overcome these issues, laboratories need to be able to support researchers while managing data and the infrastructure needed to deliver mission-critical results and ultimately, positive patient outcomes.

At the NGS Data Analysis and Informatics Conference in February, attendees spoke about these challenges at length. This webinar, built from content shared at the event, will review potential approaches to cost-effective data growth using cloud compute and storage. Moving genomics workloads to the cloud can provide scale and affordability, while optimizing investments in existing resources. Adding that ability to allow researchers to easily collaborate while reducing latencies to these resources is pertinent to usability.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:
- Increase computation potential
- Optimize your physical infrastructure
- Diagram common use cases to meet specific research goals
- Increase flexibility by limiting data gravity

Google Cloud Platform, Avere Systems, and Cycle Computing experts will share best practices for advancing solutions to big challenges faced by enterprises with growing compute and storage needs. In this “best practices” webinar, you’ll hear how these companies are working to improve results that drive businesses forward through scalability, performance, and ease of management.

In this webinar, you will learn:
- How enterprises are using Google Cloud Platform to gain big compute and storage capacity on-demand
- Best practices for efficient use of cloud compute and storage resources
- Overcoming the need for file systems within a hybrid cloud environment
- Understand how to eliminate latency between cloud and data center architectures
- Learn how to best manage simulation, analytics, and big data workloads in dynamic environments
- Look at market dynamics drawing companies to new storage models over the next several years

In just 60-minutes, you’ll be presented with a foundation to build infrastructure to support ongoing demand growth and have ample opportunity to ask direct questions to presenters.

Deploying applications locally and bursting them to the cloud for compute may seem difficult, especially when working with high-performance, critical information. However, using cloudbursts to offset peaks in demand can bring big benefits and kudos from organizational leaders always looking to do more with less.

After this short webinar, you’ll be ready to:

- Explain what cloud bursting is and what workloads it is best for
- Identify efficiencies in applying cloud bursting to high-performance applications
- Understand how cloud computing services access your data and consume it during burst cycles
- Share three real-world use cases of companies leveraging cloud bursting for measurable efficiencies
- Have seen a demonstration of how it works

Presenters will build an actionable framework in just thirty minutes and then take questions.
