Amazon Web Services (AWS) is used by many users and organizations given its scalability, reliability, and other advantages. When migrating data to the AWS cloud, you should take into account certain features. By default, Amazon provides the web interface for managing the cloud environment and uploading/downloading files. However, using the web interface for regular uploading of high amounts of data may be inconvenient.

When it comes to recovery from backups, one of the core functionalities needed is recovering a file or files that may have been accidentally or intentionally deleted, corrupted by a system failure, or a possible ransomware infection. When it comes to file recovery, we want to be able to quickly and easily recover from a backup and have the flexibility to choose the restore points we need.

Hybrid cloud backup is a data protection strategy that combines both on-premises and cloud-based storage for backup data. This approach stands out from other backup strategies by including a cloud component to enhance redundancy, availability, resilience, and cost efficiency.

Amazon S3 is reliable cloud storage provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Files are stored as objects in Amazon S3 buckets. This storage is widely used to store data backups due to the high reliability of Amazon S3. Unlike Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS), where redundant data is stored in one availability zone, in Amazon S3, redundant data is distributed across multiple availability zones.

In the previous posts, we took a look at setting up VMkernel networks, including storage and vMotion. Now, we discuss configuring ESXi networks for the VMs themselves. VM networks provide connectivity of the VMs to the production network. Let’s walk through how these are configured. NAKIVO for VMware vSphere Backup Complete data protection for VMware vSphere VMs and instant recovery options. Secure backup targets onsite, offsite and in the cloud. Anti-ransomware features.

Virtualization is widely used nowadays due to the advantages for business IT infrastructures, such as scalability, cost-efficiency, and convenient administration. Hardware resources of physical servers can be aggregated to resource pools and provisioned for virtual machines (VMs). Sufficient resources allocated to VMs are required for the expected performance of a guest operating system and applications running on the VM.

A VMware hypervisor allows you to run virtual machines on a single server. You can run multiple virtual machines on a standalone ESXi host and deploy multiple hosts to run more virtual machines. If you have multiple ESXi hosts connected via the network, you can migrate virtual machines from one host to another.

When configuring processor settings for a new virtual machine, there are several key concepts to understand: how to calculate the number of processor cores per CPU and CPU cores per socket and how these settings affect the speed of virtual machines. In addition, it is important to understand what ensures better VM performance: limiting the number of processors and having more CPU cores or having more processors with fewer cores?

Do you regularly back up Office 365 emails? If not, there’s bad news. Even cloud giants like Microsoft can experience outages and disruptions. And contrary to popular belief, Microsoft holds your organization responsible for any data loss due to these events. Moreover, according to Microsoft’s Shared Responsibility Model, protecting all your data within Microsoft 365 infrastructure is solely your responsibility.

You may encounter issues when using any application, and Office 365 is no exception. Not all issues are caused by bugs left unpatched by the software vendor or by third-party applications like the recent Crowdstrike incident that caused a global O365 outage. Many issues that you may face day-to-day can be fixed on the client side. If you encounter an issue in Office 365 that can only be fixed by the vendor, Microsoft usually releases an update to resolve any known issues as soon as possible.
