Cloud native has already proven to be the future of developing software. By 2025, 80% of enterprise apps will become cloud-based or in the process of transferring to cloud native apps. IT departments are migrating to the cloud to save money and keep their designs secure off-site. Before you start t

Hybrid cloud is a combination of on-prem and third-party cloud resources ensuring a high level of flexibility and cost-efficiency. Organizations are massively exploring and leveraging modern hybrid cloud envirnoments, moving from a single on-prem or cloud solution to the best of both worlds. Accord

An IT edge is where end devices connect to a network to deliver data and receive instructions from a central server, either a data center or the cloud. While this model worked in the past, modern devices generate so much data that companies require expensive equipment to maintain optimal performanc

As cloud offerings became more diverse, companies increasingly started to rely on multiple cloud services rather than side with a single provider. While technically complex, this multi-cloud approach allows an organization to choose among different solutions to ensure optimal application performanc

For most businesses, an ideal cloud solution is not deploying a single cloud, whether public or private. Instead, the right choice is to set up two or more cloud solutions. When deploying multiple clouds, a business has two options. Either set up a hybrid cloud or go with a multi-cloud strategy. Wh

Hybrid cloud architecture allows a company to combine a tightly controlled on-premise infrastructure with the power of a public cloud service. Due to high levels of flexibility, hybrid cloud solutions are the go-to option for modernizing existing and legacy applications. This article is an introduc

Terraform, and Pulumi are two popular Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools used to provision and manage virtual environments. Both tools are open source, widely used, and provide similar features. However, it isn’t easy to choose between Pulumi and Terraform without a detailed comparison. Below is an

Technology giants like Google, IBM, Amazon, and Microsoft are pouring resources into quantum computing. The goal of quantum computing is to create the next generation of computers and overcome classic computing limits. Despite the progress, there are still unknown areas in this emerging field. This

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) simplifies the process of managing virtualized cloud resources. With the introduction of cloud-native dedicated servers, it is now possible to deploy physical machines with the same level of flexibility. phoenixNAP’s cloud-native dedicated server platform Bare Metal Clo

As part of the effort to build a flexible, cloud-native ready infrastructure, phoenixNAP collaborated with Canonical on enabling nearly instant OS installation. Canonical’s MAAS (Metal-as-a-Service) solution allows for automated OS installation on phoenixNAP’s Bare Metal Cloud, making it possible t

The demand for cloud computing has given rise to different types of cloud deployment models. These models are based on similar technology, but they differ in scalability, cost, performance, and privacy. It is not always clear which cloud model is an ideal fit for a business. Decision-makers must fa

Both web and application servers respond to user requests for content. Yet, there are several key differences between the two server types, and knowing these distinctions can help you configure the right software and hardware infrastructure for your needs. Read on to learn the differences between w

Any company that wishes to protect its cloud assets needs a cloud security policy. A policy helps keep cloud data safe and grants the ability to respond to threats and challenges quickly. This article explains the value of cloud security policies. Read on to learn what these policies cover, what be

A hybrid cloud is a cost-effective cloud solution that offers high flexibility, reliability, and performance. The adoption of hybrid cloud comes with some challenges, though. Most issues happen during the initial cloud setup, so solving these problems early on is a priority. This article examines t

The rising popularity of deep learning created a healthy competition between deep learning frameworks. PyTorch and TensorFlow stand out as two of the most popular deep learning frameworks. The libraries are competing head-to-head for taking the lead in being the primary deep learning tool. TensorFl

Over the past few years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of Cloud-based services, especially in the tech industry. IT professionals spend a lot of time managing, purchasing, administering, and upgrading IT services, often distracting them from the mission-critical objectives of their

Do you feel your business would improve from having dedicated resources available on demand? If your critical workloads need full processing capacity that you don’t usually achieve with virtualization, consider using a bare metal cloud server. But before we get to that, let’s start at the beginning

Cloud Computing is one of the most implemented methods for developing and delivering enterprise applications currently. It is also the most opted solution for the ever-expanding needs of SMEs and large scale enterprises alike. As businesses grow and their process technologies improve, there is a gr

The advancement of virtualization technology has made Cloud Computing an integral part of every industry. Cloud computing has four well-known flavors: Public, Private, Hybrid, and Bare Metal Cloud. The “Community Cloud” concept is new and falls somewhere between Public and Private Cloud. What is a

The concept of managing infrastructure as code is essential in DevOps environments. Furthermore, it would be impossible to maintain an efficient DevOps pipeline without it. Infrastructure-as-code tools such as Pulumi help DevOps teams automate their resource provisioning schemes at scale. This arti
