Trilio announced that TrilioVault for Kubernetes is available with IBM Cloud Paks on Red Hat Marketplace. This increases interoperability between the two companies as well as bringing TrilioVault to all the customers IBM can reach. This partnership allows for TrilioVault for Kubernetes to be integrated with the IBM Cloud Pak for Data System, IBM Cloud Pak for Multicloud Management and IBM Cloud Pak for Applications.
SIOS Technology Corp announced that its SIOS AppKeeper is now available in AWS Marketplace. As we said previously, SIOS AppKeeper has three key capabilities. The first and most important is that it can reduce downtime by automatically restarting AWS EC2 services or rebooting instances when services become unavailable. It can also monitor and proactively respond to other kinds of AWS EC2 service alerts. Last but not least, setup takes only a few minutes because there is no software to install. Users simply connect to their AWS account and select which instances and services to monitor, and the level of protection they want.
XPG announced the launch of its GAMMIX S50 Lite PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD. The new drives has quoted speeds of 3.9GB/s read and 3.2GB/s write with random throughput as high as 490K IOPS. The drive also supports LDPC error correcting code technology to detect and fix a more comprehensive range of data errors for more accurate data transfers and a higher Total Bytes Written (TBW) rating.
AWS announced the expansion of its Graviton2-based EC2 instances with the launch of new T4g. These are new lost-cost, burstable instance types. The new instances leverage AWS Graviton2 and the custom built by AWS using 64-bit Arm processor and Neoverse cores. AWS claims performance benefits up to 40% at a 20% lower cost.
Aerospike announced it was upgrading and expanding its Aerospike Connect product line. Along with this Aerospike Database 5 with popular open-source frameworks, including Apache Spark, Kafka, Pulsar, and JMS. The Expanded Product Line of Aerospike Connect includes:
As we previously said: AWS Outposts bring native AWS services, infrastructure, and operating models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility, all with lower latency. As a bonus the solution is fully managed by AWS, and the physical infrastructure is delivered and installed by AWS. This means that users don’t have to worry about updates or patches as AWS operates and monitors its Outposts, saving on downtime and maintenance. These companies include: WekaIO, Clumio, Commvault, CTERA, Rurik, Veritas, Nasuni, and Zadara, amongst others most likely. Of course, each of the companies listed bring their own unique capabilities to AWS Outposts.
Back in April of 2020, Synology announced that its VPN Plus licenses will be free from April 6 until September 20, 2020 in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The company is now extending that time frame all the way until September 30, 2021. This will help many of the small businesses that are struggling through the remote working issues with their employees.
Silicon Power released another new microSD card in the Golden Series Superior microSDXC Card. Aside from its fancy name, the card is a Class 10 / UHS-I U3 / V30 / A1 card that features high-endurance performance built for 24/7 surveillance with up to 256GB of storage capacity.
