Why Use Storage as a Service

Apr 20, 2022 By Pure Storage In OpsMatters

Most businesses are moving towards Storage as a Service for their data storage needs, and for good reasons.

You can choose to have the infrastructure on your premises and manage it using your existing IT personnel and resources or have the third-party vendor handle everything offsite. Regardless of your choice, Storage as a Service comes with numerous advantages for your business. Here are a few reasons you should consider STaaS if you haven't yet.

Apr 20, 2022 By Jenna Bunnell In WebSitePulse

DevOps: Development and Operations joined together in perfect harmony, one feeding the other and vice-versa. That's the dream. But it's easy for the link between the two to be broken. 'Dev' stops talking to 'Ops,' or Ops falls out with Dev, often because of a lack of understanding of each other's goals. That's where Monitoring and Observability come in. They're like the mediators whose job is to make sure the two main players in DevOps keep that metaphorical dialogue open.

Functional vs non-functional software testing

Apr 20, 2022 By Jacob Schmitt In CircleCI

When you think of software testing, what comes up first? For many developers, unit tests and integration tests are often top of mind.
