There is an increasing and understandable buzz around blockchain and its potential to solve data sharing issues in the criminal justice system. However, caution is required. Lars Davies, CEO of Kalypton explains.

Let’s face it, the cloud isn’t for everyone, but nevertheless it has its merits. Yet before you go and invest in new technology or move to it, you should examine whether your existing infrastructure is sufficient to do the job you need it for. Ask yourself questions, including: “the hyperconvergence story: what’s really important?” In…

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. If you haven’t started the process yet, then start saving up for the fines because these are not going to be cheap. For example, last year, Talk Talk’s fine of £400,000…

“…Not every cloud has a silver lining”, says David Trossell, CEO and CTO of Bridgeworks. He argues that believing the hype about the cloud isn’t necessarily the way to go. “You have to consider a number of factors such as hybrid cloud, keeping your databases locally, the effect of latency and how you control and…

An International media company wants to consolidate its video editing operations in New York and London. This will split their video data between their offices in the two cities. In London 60TB will be stored there,…

Given that the AWS outage was caused by human error, the first question I’d ask is whether blaming the public cloud for the outage is fair. ComputerWeekly’s Cliff Saran writes that ‘AWS Outage Shows Vulnerability of Cloud Disaster Recovery’ in his article of 6th March 2017. He cites the S3 outage suffered by Amazon Web…

Why do people think edge computing will blow away the cloud? This claim appears in many online articles. Clint Boulton, for example, discusses it in his March 6 article at Asia Cloud Forum, “Edge Computing Will Blow Away the Cloud.” He cites venture capitalist Andrew Levine, a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz, who believes more…

One large global banking firm wanted the ability to back up, restore and recover their data from their datacentres. It thought it had to build another datacentre – not too close, not too far away from its existing datacentre. The thing is this company probably has the facilities it needs on site already.
