Analysis of Data Center Architectures Supporting Open Compute Project

June 18, 2019

Open Compute has had a significant impact on the thinking about data center design. Until now, the focus has been on systems at the rack level, leaving unanswered questions about the power infrastructure upstream of the rack. In this paper, we address critical questions about the implications of Open Compute on the upstream power infrastructure, including redundancy, availability, and flexibility. We introduce simplified reference designs that support OCP and provide a capital cost analysis to compare traditional and OCP-based designs. We also present an online TradeOff Tool that allows data center decision makers to better understand the cost differences and cost drivers to various architectures.

Data Lake Whitepaper

whitePaper | December 22, 2022

We live in a digital world in which data analytics and artificial intelligence significantly impact our daily lives. They influence what we wear, what we eat, where we travel, and how we spend our free time. In medicine the impact of data has much more drastic effects, as access to high-quality medical data is a matter of life or death for patients every day. In this particular area, the desire to save human life by discovering modern methods of therapy and diagnostics often contradicts another fundamental right of the patient - the right to privacy and the right to dispose of one’s data.

Building a Data Management Strategy for Your Nonprofit

whitePaper | June 14, 2022

In a digital-first world, every organization needs a data management plan. Yet, fewer than 25% of nonprofits report having a plan in place. This means data is infrequently shared across departments and rarely used to make decisions or predict future stakeholder behaviors. A data management plan is fundamental to make an impact and an attainable goal regardless of organization sizeor technological capacity. An effective data management plan takes into account your mission, staffing, time, budget, goals, existing technology, and more.

Enhancing data mesh: How distributed ledger solutions empower decentralized governance

whitePaper | June 27, 2023

Data mesh is an innovative approach to data management that offers a solution to the most common challenges organizations face when dealing with large-scale data management. Data mesh concept consists of four key principles for large-scale data management in a multi-tiered, multi-domain organizational structure: domainoriented ownership, data as product, federated computational governance and a self-service data platform. These all promote a more agile, efficient and scalable data architecture. However, one of the central challenges to implementing data mesh is designing decentralized governance mechanisms that align with its core principles.

Manual Replication of MySQL Database Using MySQL Workbench

whitePaper | December 19, 2022

When an Azure region is not available due to issues at the Datacenter level, this should not affect the availability of data. Hence, database replication is required to avoid data loss at any given point in time. Some Microsoft Azure regions do not support Azure database replication in different regions. (Refer to the image given below) To overcome this, manual replication of MySQL database using MySQL workbench is the only feasible option.
