CloudX Hyper-Converged Infrastructure for OpenStack using EMC ScaleIO

Mellanox offers a complete 10/25/40/50/56/100 Gb/s InfiniBand and Ethernet adapter, switch, cable product line which together deliver an Efficient Virtual Network (EVN)¹. The Mellanox CloudX™ OpenStack reference architecture takes advantage of the integration of the key features of the Efficient Virtual Network drivers into the OpenStack cloud management framework. While OpenStack provides a flexible framework for cloud integration and management, there are certain limitations to the classical architecture which can be overcome by using advanced scale-out software defined storage technologies. This whitepaper will demonstrate how the EMC Scale-IO Elastic Converged Storage can be integrated within the OpenStack framework to build both converged and hyper-converged infrastructure. This CloudX reference architecture based on the integration of OpenStack and ScaleIO provides a converged infrastructure platform to build the most efficient and scalable private, public and hybrid clouds possible.

Greening the Future Data Center Infrastructure via the GE Aeroderivative Technology and Microgrid Controls

whitePaper | June 15, 2022

How do you green an operation that requires reliable-resilient power 24/7/365, in a dynamically changing environment, while maintaining global environmental responsibility, sustainability, and profitability? Some data centers consume more energy than a large town or small city. But those towns and cities have time to relax and shut down. While data centers are critical infrastructure, they also run our worlds critical infrastructure – so keeping them online can be a matter of life and death. Combine this with the continued need for more sustainable operations, renewable energy goals and objectives, and a dramatic increase for data storage services – and you have an interesting challenge.

Zero Trust Maturity Model

whitePaper | June 13, 2023

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) leads the nation’s effort to understand, manage, and reduce cybersecurity risk, including by supporting Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies in evolving and operationalizing cybersecurity programs and capabilities. CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM) provides an approach to achieve continued modernization efforts related to zero trust within a rapidly evolving environment and technology landscape. This ZTMM is one of many paths that an organization can take in designing and implementing their transition plan to zero trust architectures in accordance with Executive Order (EO) 14028 “Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity” § (3)(b)(ii),1 which requires that agencies develop a plan to implement a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). While the ZTMM is specifically tailored for federal agencies as required by EO 14028, all organizations should review and consider adoption of the approaches outlined in this document.
