STG202: Is Your SaaS Covered? Best Practices for Preventing Data Loss in Microsoft Office 365 Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

Though Office 365 is a valuable tool for companies to grow faster and collaborate more effectively, it also presents some risks that aren't always obvious to the user, like accidental deletion, corruption, or malicious intent. Attend this session to explore how you can protect your critical Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business data from accidental deletion, corruption, or malicious intent using NetApp Cloud Control a Software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution leveraging Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3). Learn how an Ivy League University protects 15,000 Office 365 mailboxes with ease using Cloud Control. Infrastructure & Operations (I&O) leaders who are using or evaluating Office 365 can learn about investing in third-party backup and recovery tools for faster, more flexible recovery options, as well as reputation damage control after a malicious attack. This session is suitable for cloud architects, IT infrastructure architects, application administrators, backup administrators, DBAs, and storage administrators. Session sponsored by NetApp

STG203: Get Rid of Tape and Modernize Backup with AWS Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

Do you have on-premises tape backups or expensive VTL hardware? Worried about moving cases of tapes off site? Not sure about the integrity of your data on tape? Learn how to use AWS services, including AWS Storage Gateway, to replace existing traditional approaches. Using Storage Gateway and standard backup software, you can back up to Amazon S3 and Amazon Glacier or tier snapshots to AWS. This enables both long-term data retention for compliance, and also recovery into Amazon EC2, locally, or to another site in case of a disaster. Southern Oregon University shares how they replaced tape backups with AWS, and the lessons learned in the process.

STG204: Migrating Large Scale Data Sets to the Cloud Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

AWS now offers the simple services of data migration at a petabyte scale. You can easily move large volumes of data from onsite to the cloud. You can also quickly get started with the cloud as a backup target using data transfer services, such as AWS Snowball, AWS Snowball Edge, or AWS Storage Gateway. Learn about the available data migration options and which one is the right fit for your requirements. We discuss customer use cases and review the different applications they used with our data migration services to cut their IT expenditures and management time on hardware and backup solutions.

STG205: #EarthonAWS: How NASA Is Using AWS Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

Organizations around the world are facing a “data tsunami” as next-generation sensors produce enormous volumes of earth observation data. Come learn how NASA is leveraging AWS to efficiently work with data and computing resources at a massive scale. NASA is transforming its earth science EOSDIS (Earth Observing System Data Information System) program by moving data processing and archiving to the cloud. NASA anticipates that their data archives will grow from 16 PB today to over 400 PB by 2023 and 1 Exabyte by 2030. They're moving to the cloud to scale their operations for this new paradigm.

STG305: Deep Dive on Backup to the AWS Cloud Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

Surveys consistently rank backup as one of the first workloads to move to the cloud. But what does it really look like? This session gives backup managers and admins the straight story on streamlining AWS Cloud integration with existing on-premises data backup software, tape processes, virtual tape libraries, third-party snapshots, file servers, and archives. Learn how to choose the right integration with varying degrees of disruption, how to automatically migrate data for cost reductions and compliance, and how to recover individual files or many files fast. We discuss Amazon S3, Amazon Glacier, Amazon EFS, AWS Snowball, AWS Storage Gateway (both as VTL and File Gateway), and third-party partner integrations.

STG307: Deep Dive on Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

In this session, we explore the world's first cloud-scale file system and its targeted use cases. Learn about Amazon EFS features and benefits, how to identify applications that are appropriate for use with Amazon EFS, and details about its performance and security models. The target audience is security administrators, application developers, and applications owners who operate or build file-based applications.

STG308: Hybrid Cloud Data Management: Using Data for Business Outcomes Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

Today, data backup isn't enough. IT teams with a cloud data management strategy become a data broker for the business. Data helps the business improve company reputation, drive revenue, and satisfy customers. With a hybrid architecture approach to managing data on-premises and in the cloud, the business can be more agile and more responsive than today. Find out what your IT peers are doing with cloud data management (hint: it's more than backup). Learn how data backup, recovery, management, and e-discovery capabilities can help maximize your use of AWS. See what your peers are doing to best move, manage, and use data across on-premises storage and cloud services. In this session, you learn steps for seamless, risk-free migration to different AWS services (Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, Amazon S3, Amazon S3 - Infrequent Access class, Amazon Glacier and AWS Snowball); tactics for streamlined, enterprise-class disaster recovery; ways to save money by retiring expensive alternatives like tape storage; single view e-discovery across hybrid locations with dynamic data indexing across on-premises and cloud storage; and how to achieve holistic data protection across storage locations.
