Optimize Costs And Safeguard Data With This Hybrid Cloud AI Solution

By David Fafel |   Feb 11, 2025

Managing AI workloads effectively is no small task. Organizations must navigate the trade-offs between public cloud, private cloud, and on-premises IT to ensure their AI applications run smoothly while controlling expenses and safeguarding sensitive data. Public cloud services offer scalable computing power, but ongoing operational costs can quickly accumulate. On-premises infrastructure, meanwhile, provides the highest level of control, yet it often lacks the elasticity needed for AI’s rapidly shifting demands. Private cloud solutions, on the other hand, help address security and compliance needs but may require significant investment in maintenance and management.

With generative text programs and image generators doing things many never thought possible, many industry leaders have focused on the application of AI technologies in content creation. Unfortunately, there is a darker application for artificial intelligence technologies. Ultimately, these complex systems are tools, and – like any tool – they can do a lot of damage in the wrong hands. In no place is that truer than in the practice of cybersecurity.

Four Reasons Why HPE GreenLake Is Ideal For Optimal Cloud Compute Management

By David Fafel |   Apr 25, 2023

In today's digital landscape, managing computing infrastructure has become an increasingly complex and challenging task. As more businesses move their data and applications to the cloud, concerns around cloud security and compliance have become increasingly prevalent. Public cloud providers, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offer a range of security features and tools to protect their customers' data. Despite these efforts, breaches may occur and businesses face limitations of liabilities from third-party providers in such events. One solution that addresses these concerns originates from HPE GreenLake.

Unify Hybrid Cloud Deployments With Nutanix Cloud Platform

By Patrick Gamble |   Apr 18, 2023

There is an ongoing shift to hybrid multi-cloud infrastructure, requiring businesses to adopt agile and seamless approaches to workload management across multiple clouds. IT professionals managing enterprise and legacy applications may initially consider virtual machines for on-premise cloud solutions. However, it may be more beneficial to refactor applications using cloud-native technologies like containers, rather than relying on the lift and shift approach.

A lift and shift method may involve moving from traditional VM environments to cloud-based environments like EC2, EBS, or Azure. However, for most modern businesses, a hybrid approach is the best option. Nutanix, a pioneer in hybrid cloud infrastructure, offers a viable solution to maintain and streamline operations while meeting business needs.
