Caringo was founded in 2005 to change the economics of storage by designing software from the ground up to solve the issues associated with relentless data growth. Caringo’s flagship product, Swarm, decouples data from applications and hardware providing a foundation for continued data access and analysis that continuously evolves while guaranteeing data integrity. Today, Caringo software-defined object storage solutions are used to preserve and provide access to rapidly scaling data sets across many industries.

With the continued compounding effect of infrequently accessed data, organizations need to look beyond scaling infrastructure to intelligent data lifecycle management and sustainable cost while making sure their data remains secure. For these cold-archiving use cases, a two-tiered approach with server-based object storage and a tape object archive can bring many benefits, including the ability to:

--Economically achieve optimal price/performance for multi-petabyte environments
--Meet stringent security and compliance requirements by deploying a high-security air-gapped solution
--Satisfy corporate policies for long-term preservation of data on tape storage

In this Tech Tuesday webinar, Chris Kehoe, Fujifilm Head of infrastructure Engineering, joins Ryan Meek, Caringo Principal Solutions Architect, and Jose Marcos, Caringo Sales Engineer to discuss how to build a complete, on-prem object storage solution with Caringo Swarm and  FUJIFILM Object Archive.

Building a Complete, On-Prem Object Storage Solution, Tech Tuesday

The traditional online, offline, nearline and archive storage models are expensive and slow storage paradigms that just don't cut it for digital video in 2021! As a result of the drastic consumption model changes that 2020 required, we’ve emerged from this year with the need for bigger archives, stronger workflow models, and faster content delivery. 

Subscribers and viewers are demanding to watch video on their terms, at any time and on any device. Join Eric Dey, Caringo Head of Product, Ben Canter, Caringo Global VP of Sales, and Adrian J Herrera, Caringo VP Marketing, as they discuss:

--Factors that will drive on-prem and cloud storage growth in the digital video market 
--Different storage and content distribution requirements for M&E, Sports Video, Broadcasters, and VOD services
--Modern strategies for tiering video assets to increase storage cost-effectiveness

Bigger, Stronger, Faster: Digital Video Growth for 2021

The notion of an archive has stayed consistent for many years, with cost and workflow integration being the most common evaluation criteria. As content libraries increase in size and workflows become more distributed, the primary function of an archive as the secondary tier is splitting into two—a hot/warm tier enabling distributed workflows and a cold tier optimized for cost. 

Join Adrian J Herrera, Caringo VP Marketing and host of Brews & Bytes, for a lively discussion with Eric Dey, Caringo Director of Product, Rich Gadomski, Fujifilm Head of Tape Evangelism, and Nami Matsumoto, Fujifilm Director of Data Management Solutions. They will discuss:

--The functional role of the archive in today’s workflows
--Leveraging tape, HDD and object storage to optimize accessibility and cost 
--Where archive technologies are headed, and a look at active archiving

The Future of Data Archive, Brews & Bytes, ep 13

Caringo’s John Bell, Sr. Consultant, and Jamshid Afshar, Sr. Software Engineer, will explore how Elasticsearch, a distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine, is used by object storage. By watching this webinar, you will learn:

--The benefits of using Elasticsearch with object storage
--Best practices for using Elasticsearch with object storage
--How simple it is to upgrade from Elasticsearch 6 to Elasticsearch 7 
--How to deploy Elasticsearch on Kubernetes

How Elasticsearch is Used by Object Storage, Tech Tuesday

The holiday season is a time of reflection for many around the world. On episode 12 of Brews & Bytes, we will take a look at the characteristics of data storage to be thankful for! From entertainment, education, healthcare, connecting with friends and family and everything in between, storage has played a critical role in keeping the world connected this past year. Join Adrian J Herrera, VP Marketing, Tony Barbagallo, CEO, and TW Cook, VP of Engineering, for a discussion about:

--How storage has evolved over the last decade
--Stories from the field…top 3 times organizations were “thankful” for storage 
--Where storage is headed in the coming decade

Storage Trends to be Thankful For!

No matter your line of business, it’s likely driven by data. Storing that data comes with various challenges, including:

--Adding capacity continuously while transparently providing data access
--Complying with industry and government regulations
--Keeping both your TCA (total cost of acquisition) and your TCO (total cost of ownership) within your budget
--Developing a long-term plan for archiving data securely
--Making sure your remote staff has access to the data they need

Caringo is empowering content-driven organizations across the globe with the Swarm Intelligent Data Management & Object Storage Platform. Our solutions are designed to easily enable local and global secure access, content delivery and archive.

Join John Bell, Sr. Consultant, as he hosts Eric Dey, Director of Product, to learn about updates to the Caringo storage product line, including Swarm 12, SwarmFS (formerly SwarmNFS) and FileFly. Throughout the presentation, you can submit questions about our latest releases. Don’t miss this opportunity to get the jump on your 2021 storage strategy!

Intelligent Data Management for Access, Archive and Content

Developers today are increasingly concerned with developing cloud-native applications, and with good reason. Applications developed for cloud native services can scale as needed, and can leverage immutable infrastructure, containers, service meshes and declarative APIs flexibly on private, public or hybrid cloud storage.

Tune in to this month’s Tech Tuesday webinar to learn:

--The benefits of a cloud-native approach
--The top 3 mistakes developers make when developing cloud-native applications
--Best practices for developing cloud-native applications
--How Caringo Swarm Intelligent Data Management uses the cloud-native approach to provide massively scalable, self-healing object-based storage

At Caringo, we’ve worked with customers on cloud-native applications (although they weren’t called that yet) since 2006. Ryan Meek, who joined Caringo in 2006 and was one of the early application developers with what is now known as Swarm, will be our subject-matter expert for the topic. Stick around until the end of the webinar for the Q&A. Sarah Cook, Director of Marketing and this month’s host, will make sure you get the answers you need.

Developing Cloud-Native Applications, Tech Tuesday

The rate of data growth for many organizations is outpacing budgets and resources needed to store it all efficiently. One of the solutions is increasing the density of storage, enabling you to store more data in a smaller footprint. In episode 11 of Brews & Bytes, we will tackle these questions:

--What are the trends in HDD density and how quickly have things advanced the past few years?
--Should everything digital that is created by businesses and individuals be stored?
--With 14 and 18 TB HDDs on the market, when is a good time to go dense? 
--How are organizations approaching this issue? 

Caringo VP of Marketing and Brews & Bytes host Adrian J Herrera will be joined by Eric Dey, Caringo Head of Product, and Scott Hamilton, WD Sr. Director of Product Management and Marketing.

Storing Data: When Does Dense Make Sense? Brews & Bytes ep 11

In this educational webinar, DataCore domain experts for each storage type will translate the technological differences into the value they deliver using real world examples and experiences gathered over the course of hundreds of deployments.
