  • With WAN and data acceleration and their ability to maximise the WAN capacity regardless of the distance involved, it is now possible to have datacentres, or the cloud thousands of miles away, whilst retaining performance and the RPO requirements.

  • As the adoption of cloud moves into more and more organisations along with the growth in unstructured data, there will be a move towards object storage. This will not just occur in the cloud, but as the standard for on premise storage. Object storage removes the limitation on a file systems name space that traditional…

So, if one goes down, two others can keep you operational – and that’s even better when disaster recovery is achieved seamlessly…

  • By conducting the analysis at the edge, it becomes possible to mitigate some of the effects of latency, and there will be occasions when connected and autonomous vehicles will need to function without any access to the internet or to cloud services. The other factor that is often considered, and why an increasing number of…

  • The role of telematics in locking hackers out of vehicles explored by Graham Jarvis. Many cyber-security techniques focus on securing the perimeter of critical computer systems and on recovering in the event of failure. Yet, there is a role for telematics to play in locking hackers out of connected and autonomous vehicles. David Leporini, director,…

  • Graham Jarvis writes for TU Automotive magazine, and looks at how protecting consumer data will help to sell usage-based insurance.

  • Time is also running out rapidly for GDPR compliance; the regulations come into force in May 2018, and so there’s no time to waste.
