Organizations are increasingly focused on addressing the growing challenge of managing and analyzing vast data volumes, while making sure that their data teams have timely access to this data to enable rapid insights and decision-making. Data analysts and scientists need self-service analytics capabilities to build and maintain data products, often involving complex transformations and frequent […]

Organizations often struggle to extract maximum value from their data lakes when running generative AI and analytics workloads due to data quality challenges. Although data lakes excel at storing massive amounts of raw, diverse data, they need robust governance and management practices to prevent common quality issues. Without proper data validation, cleansing processes, and ongoing […]

Users often use backups to help recover data after a disaster or security incident. However, what is often overlooked is the need to restore data due to an operational incident such as a data corruption event or deleted file. The ability to identify files and directories within a backup and restore them is an important […]

When it comes to running enterprise workloads, Microsoft SQL Server sits at the heart of many of these solutions providing the data needed to drive important business decisions. However, what is often not considered is the storage service underpinning the delivery of that critical data, and with the right tools and management applied, how that […]

Editor’s note: AWS is not responsible for UCI’s public GitHub repo linked in this post, which has been provided so that interested parties can explore the solution described in this post in more detail. The University of California, Irvine (UCI) is a public land-grant research university with troves of research data stored on servers in […]

When was the last time you found yourself trying to look at rows and rows of data in a spreadsheet struggling to interpret and draw conclusions? Many analysts and engineers experience the same challenge every day. Whether it’s analyzing sales trends, monitoring operational metrics, or understanding customer behavior, the challenge lies not just in interpreting […]

Health plans process billions of claims electronically each year. Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare (CAQH) estimates that approximately 10% of claims still arrive as paper documents, accounting for hundreds of millions of paper submissions annually in the U.S. These paper claims create processing bottlenecks and consume a disproportionate share of operational costs and resources, with […]

Data caching is a critical strategy for optimizing application performance in today’s data-intensive environments. By storing frequently accessed information in high-speed storage locations, organizations can dramatically reduce access times, optimize the use of compute resources, and improve overall system responsiveness. Effective caching strategies become particularly essential for workloads that require consistent low latency, such as […]

Over the past two decades, virtualization, specifically VMware was the key technology trend that has helped organizations reduce costs, improve operational efficiency, and simplify infrastructure management. However, the technology landscape is rapidly evolving. Cloud service providers now offer advanced hypervisor capabilities that match or exceed traditional on-premises virtualization solutions, while providing seamless integration with a […]

Encryption serves a fundamental role in securing sensitive data both in transit and at rest. Server-side encryption offers simplicity and ease of implementation, with data encrypted where stored, and enables seamless integration with other services. In contrast, client-side encryption secures data where ingested or created, and offers additional capabilities to meet specific security requirements around […]
