  • A Computer Weekly buyer's guide to multicloud

    In this 15-page buyer’s guide, Computer Weekly looks at:

    • SD-WAN requirements for a multicloud environment.
    • Juggling clouds: Is it worth it? Will the benefits of multicloud end up being too hard-fought to make it viable for most enterprises? The cloud services making Windows 10 updates easier for administrators.
    • Microsoft’s road to multicloud support. Why multicloud is more about portability than resiliency for Microsoft.

  • It's hyper converged-with-everything in today's datacentre

    Hyper-converged infrastructure has taken the datacentre by storm.

    At heart it is the marrying of compute and storage in one box, but with a couple of crucial additions.

    These are the ability to combine multiple nodes into a single cluster, with resources shared in grid-like fashion between them. And, at the same time, that is usually accompanied by a built-in virtualisation hypervisor.

    Those characteristics make hyper-converged infrastructure simple to roll out and manage, and well-suited to use cases that range from SME deployments to multiple-node enterprise implementations.

    In fact, it's almost a case of "We're all hyper-converged now", as the datacentre-in-a-box threatens to eclipse the shared storage array.

    In this e-guide we look at the key hyper-converged vendors and their products, as well as hyper-converged tailored to disaster recovery, backup, cloud functionality, and the software-defined hyper-converged products available.
