The latest News and Information on Cloud monitoring, security and related technologies.
Hybrid cloud has become a popular computing model in recent times. Find out all you need to know, including its features, pros and cons As computing needs evolve, enterprises continuously find it difficult to scale their business offerings on private or on-premises computing environments. That’s why there are third-party or public cloud providers to enable businesses to carry out larger computational workloads.
You launch a startup or a new project in your organisation. You decide to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) as your primary cloud platform. You estimate costs based on listed prices, and rest assured that your startup/project will meet its budget. And then, suddenly, at the end of the month, you receive an invoice from AWS for an amount two times higher than you originally expected.
In the first post of this series, I detailed ways companies considering cloud adoption can achieve quick wins in performance and cost savings. While these benefits of the cloud certainly remain true in theory, realizing these benefits in practice can be increasingly difficult as applications and their networks become more complex.
You might think that colocation has been replaced by the cloud. But that’s only true in marketing terms. The reality is that colocation and the role it plays in modern edge computing has never been more important or more required. Believe it or not, cloud computing doesn’t happen in the actual sky – it happens in a data centre. And knowing where that data centre is, and how fast it links to your network and the internet, can be challenging with hyperscalers.
When it comes to cloud computing and the migration of services to the public cloud, we’ve been hearing the hype for years. “Just migrate to the cloud and everything will just work. Things will be bigger, faster, cheaper, and better.” The reality is that a migration to the cloud can result in serious disappointment from unrealistic expectations.
We are proud to introduce SUSE Edge 2.0, which will empower customers to accelerate and scale edge infrastructures and transform edge operations.
Lambda is the glue that holds serverless architectures together. Before its release, most users felt it was a matter of luck as to whether AWS would let you connect a service to another. If not, you had to spin up a VM or a container to transform the events from one service in a way that your target service could handle them. Since Lambda was easier to set up, people assumed that all code they would deploy on it would run faster and cheaper than on other compute services.
