Easy Planning for Software-Defined Storage with OSNEXUS and Western Digital

With the massive shift to remote work in 2020, IT managers needed to quickly adapt to supporting a remote workforce. Now, with business data scattered across employees’ laptops at different locations and cloud services like Microsoft 365, it’s time to evaluate data protection strategies and ensure valuable business data are well protected.

In this webinar, we will cover:
- Backing up data on remote (and BYOD) PCs
- Risks of not having on-prem backup for cloud data
- Protecting data in cloud services like Microsoft 365
- Best recommended storage solutions

One lucky attendee will have the chance to win a Synology DS220+ NAS.

Losing valuable data is a situation no one wants but everyone should prepare for. As data and information is quickly becoming the most valuable resource, from personal use, home use, small offices to multinationals, QNAP and Western Digital have come together to present the perfect storage solution for backup and disaster recovery. Join our free webinar on “Data is King. Protect your data with VM Backup, Replication & Disaster Recovery.”

As we make the leap into Industry 4.0, it is not surprising to see massive volumes of data generated from a myriad of connected devices and data hungry applications. A trend that brings new challenges to IIoT deployments. This webinar will focus on three prominent challenges you may be facing right now. Whether you’re trying to minimize system downtime, handle an influx of valuable Data, or build a scalable IIoT system, join our session to explore more forward-thinking data storage strategies.

Western Digital explains the differences between using SAS for sharing SSD storage and sharing NVMe-based storage between servers.

Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) have typically moved from cloud-based storage and compute infrastructures to enterprise datacenter infrastructures as they grow, both to reduce costs and to control the performance and user experience of their services Join a panel of experts to learn how to use NVMe™ and NVMe-oF™ storage devices, storage software, and storage networking hardware to meet the performance needs of Cloud Service Providers.

SweRV Core™ RISC-V embedded storage controllers are designed to span the demands of reliability, performance, and power consumption to multi-tennant cores and simple tasks. This session will cover SweRV Core processors EH1, EH2, and EL2. You’ll also learn about Coremark and Embench benchmarks and compare performance of single and dual-threaded operational modes.

Ethernet-attached NVMe-oF™ disaggregated storage systems aim to address workload agility and improve infrastructure efficiency. This session will review Ethernet-based protocols – RoCE, iWARP, TCP – for disaggregated storage systems and the requirements for successful and wide deployments of these types of systems.

Cloud architects will learn how to improve SSD total-cost-of-ownership (TCO) and address Latency/QoS performance at scale with ZNS SSDs. Learn the benefits of ZNS SSDs over conventional SSDs, how to leverage the ZNS command set, and real-world examples with respect to the software ecosystem.

Gain insights for cloud-native data center architectures to scale digital transformation initiatives. From the Flash Memory Summit 2020, Western Digital leaders discuss the storage trends for 2021 for data-intensive and compute-intensive workloads. They will also discuss the finer points on data movement and cloud infrastructure TCO.

Join us as we discuss the developments in modern SDS deployments and how OSNEXUS and Western Digital have collaborated to simplify design and deployment of both scale-up and scale-out architectures.

While the value of composing hardware into variable sized virtual servers is appealing, current HCI solutions are limited to the hardware resources available from the vendor who sells the chassis. Open Composable Disaggregated infrastructure provides the value of disaggregating compute, storage, and even memory resources plus the benefit of enabling multiple vendors to compete for your business.

Any downtime in your business (or homelab) can spell disaster. In this webcast we will take a deep dive into different Synology and WDC solutions for backing up and storing your virtual machine data. You will learn how to integrate VMware with Synology’s high availability cluster, set up Synology license-free backup software, select right storage from Western Digital’s NAS optimized portfolio, and implement a complete recovery strategy.
