If you’re evaluating your current disaster recovery (DR) strategy or developing a new one, you’re probably considering the best way to incorporate cloud storage. There are a number of factors that contribute to why you should consider using cloud storage. Maybe you don’t want to build and staff another data center right now; or, perhaps you want to decommission your secondary center without spinning up a new cloud disaster recovery (DR) site. Or, maybe you’ve just outgrown your current solution.
Tune in to our next Tech Tuesday webinar where Ryan Meek, Principal Solutions Architect, and Jose Marcos, Sales Engineer, discuss strategies for incorporating cloud (public, private and hybrid) into your storage architecture. Bringing expertise from working on hundreds of storage deployments, Ryan and Jose will explain how you can easily:
<ul>
<li>Tier data to a DR site using automated policies</li>
<li>Reduce risk and cost by using a deep storage archive for DR</li>
<li>Use the cloud to simplify your storage DR</li>
<li>Leverage Caringo’s expertise in data recovery processes</li>
</ul>
The webinar will include a demonstration of Caringo’s new Swarm Cloud DR powered by Wasabi and a live Q&A session.

Caringo Swarm Object Storage provides an active archive (limitless & seamless pool of data) with data protection, management and search capabilities.

Backup &amp; Recovery

Cloud architecture are the components needed for cloud computing. Typically, front-end and back-end platforms, cloud-based delivery and a network.

Cloud Architecture

Object-based storage (e.g., Amazon S3-compliant Caringo Swarm Object Storage) is the basis for all Cloud Storage⏤private, public or hybrid).

Cloud Storage

Swarm Object Storage is a valuable tool in disaster recover (DR) strategy, giving you data resilience and simplifying recovery of data on or off prem.

Disaster Recovery

Hybrid Cloud is storage that has a mix of on-premises, private cloud storage (e.g., Caringo Swarm Object Storage) & 3rd-party public cloud services.

Hybrid Cloud

Swarm Cloud Disaster Recovery (DR) powered by Wasabi provides a seamless way to instantly add a remote DR site. Backups are customizable and data is replicated to one of Wasabi’s globally distributed data centers. Swarm Cloud DR is offered as a 3-year add-on to an existing Swarm deployment or Swarm Server Appliance purchase.

How to Incorporate Cloud into Your DR Strategy

Backup & Recovery

For years, security experts have recommended the “3-2-1” data protection method. That is, keep a minimum of three copies of your data—two on site and one off site—for data protection. Unfortunately, this simple-sounding approach can be both complex and costly given data migration applications, storage capacity and unpredictable expenses (e.g., offsite/cloud costs and manual recovery processes and fees).
By integrating Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage with the Caringo Swarm on-premise object storage server line, these issues disappear. The combined solution leverages the enterprise data protection methods that have always been present in Swarm with the ability to instantly add a remote Disaster Recovery (DR) site powered by Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage. In this webinar on demand, David Boland, Wasabi Director of Product Marketing, and Eric Dey, Caringo Head of Product, explain how you can leverage Swarm Cloud DR to:
<ul>
<li>Enhance data protection with managed, offsite DR</li>
<li>Reduce risk with a more modern approach to DR</li>
<li>Optimize resources so you keep costs low and predictable</li>
<li>Meet any data protection requirement</li>
</ul>

Enhance data protection with managed, offsite DR Reduce risk with a more modern approach to DR Optimize resources so you keep costs low and predictable

Caringo uses Amazon S3 protocol for seamless policy-based tiering of data from primary storage to private Swarm cloud to public cloud.

How to Enhance Data Protection with Managed, Offsite Disaster Recovery

Long before the term “cloud” was being used, the lively debate regarding on-premises versus offsite/managed storage raged on with questions such as:
<ul>
<li>Should you be moving all of your data to the cloud?</li>
<li>Should you keep your data on-prem?</li>
<li>Is there a middle ground, and is hybrid cloud storage practical?</li>
</ul>
In this episode of our Brews & Bytes live webcast, David Boland, Wasabi Director of Product Marketing, and Eric Dey, Caringo Director of Product, join host Adrian J Herrera, VP Marketing at Caringo, to discuss these questions. With perspectives as leaders in companies that specialize in cloud storage and on-premise storage and also as technology industry professionals with multiple decades of experience, this is sure to be a lively conversation. You don’t want to miss this one!

Before the term “cloud” was coined, the debate regarding on-prem vs offsite/managed storage raged on. Hear what storage leaders have to say.

Caringo Brews and Bytes talks offer insight into top storage professionals in technology, storage and common questions which exist in the markets.

Brews and Bytes

Object storage (object-based storage) is computer data storage architecture that manages data as objects, as opposed to file storage & block storage.

On-Premises and Cloud Storage — Friends or Foes?

The shift to all-digital workflows has increased in momentum and so have malware, ransomware and crypto-locking attacks. So, how do you keep the CIA promise (Confidentiality, Integrity and Accessibility) for content repositories and archives in light of these constant threats? In this episode of Brews & Bytes, Toon Geens, Xenit CEO, Ronny Timmermans, Xenit Managing Director, and Ryan Meek, Caringo Principal Solutions Engineer, join host Adrian Herrera, Caringo VP Marketing, to discuss these questions:
<ul>
<li>How does an organization get started addressing threat prevention and detection?</li>
<li>Are there ways to contain threats and mitigate exposure?</li>
<li>Can repairing and healing from data integrity issues be automated?</li>
</ul>

Learn how you keep the CIA promise (Confidentiality, Integrity & Accessibility) for content repositories/archives in light of constant threats

Data integrity (i.e., maintenance of accurate data) is a critical function of storage systems. Caringo Swarm uses Content-MD5, Integrity Seals & WORM.

Data Integrity

Caringo revolutionized data storage and changed the economics of storage in 2006 by launching the first Object Storage product in the marketplace. 

Data Storage

Ransomware⏤malicious software or malware⏤is designed to deny access to systems & data until ransom is paid. Object storage can help protect your data.

Ransomware

As you define your storage strategy, what are the required characteristics for each tier of your storage and what variables affect each storage tier?

Security

Using the CIA promise to protect data (…the other CIA)

The volume of data that comprises High-Performance Computing (HPC) data sets is exploding, resulting in compromised performance and speed and putting research and business objectives at risk. In this webinar, hear how Swarm Object Storage Solutions are being used by organizations such as the UK STFC Scientific Computing Department to:
<ul>
<li>Streamline data management and access</li>
<li>Reduce storage TCO up to 75%</li>
<li>Provide continuous data protection</li>
</ul>

High-Performance Computing professionals are streamlining data management and access while providing continuous data protection with Swarm.

HPC data sets are exploding. Swarm Object Storage streamlines data management/access & reduces storage TCO up to 75% with continuous data protection.

High Performance Computing

Caringo Swarm Object Storage represents a new storage paradigm with read performance equivalent to parallel file systems for S3 throughput.

Performance

Scaling from small to 100s of PBs is one of the hallmarks of the Swarm pure object storage approach and a testament to our longstanding installations.

Scalability

Scale-out storage allows for expansion of data capacity through addition of devices that can be plugged in and configured as the need arises.

But, by selecting the right solution and applying the appropriate parameters you can control both the probability of data loss, as well as the size of the data loss based upon your business requirements.
In this webinar, Paul Carpentier (Caringo’s CTO and Co-founder) will cover:
<ul class="indent">
<li>The inconvenient truth most storage vendors don’t tell you about data protection</li>
<li>Why you need both replication and erasure coding</li>
<li>An introduction to Caringo’s Elastic Content Protection</li>
<li>Data loss resulting from replication versus erasure coding</li>
<li>Calculating storage efficiency and data durability (as a factor of 9s)</li>
</ul>

Caringo Swarm Object Storage uses both replication and erasure coding for flexible choice and automatic, adaptive transition between protection forms.
