Storage Trends in 2019 - Toshiba Electronics Forecast

The amount of data stored in the world not only continues to grow, but is growing faster than predicted. It was expected that the share of data stored on flash and solid state drives would increase, while the amount of data stored on hard drives and tape would decrease. However, today it is clear that all three technologies continue to evolve simply because they require a lot of storage capacities. Where are we going to store this much data? Thanks to engineers and programmers, the capacity ...

Big test Synology Active Backup for business - recovering from backup in 11 seconds!

Synology now has a free solution to back up and restore all of its infrastructure, including virtual machines, desktops, Windows servers, and NAS. We tested all its features, measured the speed and evaluated the pros and cons of this package. In 2010, the founder of Veeam Software, Ratmir Timashev, said in one of his interviews that the main thing for backups is the recovery process, how fast, easy and reliable it is. Today Veeam software solutions have become the de facto standard in large ...

Synology VMM Pro - testing failover virtualization cluster

Synology is expanding the capabilities of its hypervisor and in the Pro version it is possible to create a failover cluster. We tested non-stop migration, crash recovery and also showed how BTRFS can save disk space when using a dozen virtual machines. Traditionally for Synology, every step here is intuitive and logical. Today any small company has its own IT resources, which grow along with the growth and development of the company. One or two services can still be kept on a dedicated ...

NVMEoF: how does the fastest data protocol work?

In recent years, we have seen an increase in the performance of data storage technologies, which eventually reached the physical limits due to outdated data exchange protocols in data centers. Despite the use of 100GbE and new networking technologies such as InfiniBand, these legacy protocols continue to slow down the performance of flash drives because they are isolated within devices. In this article, we will talk about the non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) specification. Next, we'll focus on ...
