Hi all! I am Rodolfo. I have been working in IT for more than 25 years, since Solaris 2.6, and I’ve seen a lot of changes on the industry. Can you imagine the difference between Solaris 2.6 and Kubernetes? How things were managed then and how they are managed now?

OpenStack has long been the go-to platform for building private clouds, but its architecture, particularly the control plane, has undergone a significant transformation in the 15 years since its inception. The original design, a tightly coupled 3-node control plane, provided a stable foundation but presented challenges in scalability, resilience, and operational complexity.

Docker and OpenShift solve different problems in containerization. Docker creates and runs containers, while OpenShift manages container deployments at enterprise scale using Kubernetes underneath it. Docker vs. Openshift isn’t about choosing one over the other but rather understanding which tool fits your specific use case. Docker excels at application packaging and local development. OpenShift handles production orchestration, security policies, and multi-team environments.

Ransomware attacks target your backups before anything else. Recent data shows that two-thirds of organizations faced ransomware in the past two years, with attackers specifically hunting backup infrastructure to eliminate recovery options. Once your backups are gone, you’re left with two choices: Pay up or lose your data permanently.

Historically, agent-based backup systems have been the norm. These systems operate by running software on the production machine, in tandem with the production application. The agent must communicate with its central data protection server for backups to be executed. The agent’s role is to read production data through the OS layer, process it, and transmit backup data to a media or backup server, where it is ultimately stored on a typically proprietary backup storage device.
