I received an interesting email last week Friday. StrongLink, a company that I am joining for a webinar on March 15, at 12 noon EDT, on intelligent data management, shared with me an almost unbelievable screenshot (pictured below.)

Did I read that correctly and did it really mean a 1.8 exabyte file store?! As a matter of fact, yes, yes it did.
Nasuni recently hosted Nasuni CloudBound22, a two-day virtual conference. This article summarizes key takeaways from the event.
Many data protection and data storage providers highlight and promote their products’ hybrid cloud capabilities. However, their products continue to evolve to deliver more robust cloud functionality.

Where meaningful, this digital heritage needs to be preserved. Digital preservation faces threats and risks different from its analog counterparts.
