Discussion of Tiered Storage.
Building information modeling is providing significant benefits to the design and construction process, but achieving its full promise presents new technology and business opportunities. This blog is dedicated to making the journey with eyes wide open.

The Nasuni Filer is a drop-in replacement for Windows file servers, suitable for use in a medium-enterprise environment with anywhere from several hundred gigabytes of traditional file storage up to dozens of terabytes. The filer integrates well with Active Directory, provides shared resources to users in the traditional CIFS / Windows manner (mapped drivers, UNC names, etc.), and is highly secure at both the file level (with support for NTFS permissions), and at the cloud level with strong AES-256 security and tier one cloud storage providers. With built-in disaster recovery and restore features, the Nasuni filer also eases continuity concerns for primary file storage.

Affordable NAS DR in Minutes from the Cloud
Affordable NAS DR in Minutes from the Cloud:
"Cloud-based file services can offer some attractive benefits and features, but the recovery can still be a problem as the time or cost to replace a failed NAS system may be unacceptable. Cloud-based NAS systems that run as a virtual machine offer an alternative solution providing affordable NAS DR in a few minutes."

Technology News: Data Storage: Storage: The Achilles' Heel of Data Center Virtualization:
"Unstructured data is growing by 60 percent per year, according to industry analyst firm IDC, creating a need for vastly different storage economics. More than 20 percent of all compute workloads are now virtualized, creating a need for vastly different shared storage architectures, and the cloud is expected to account for 14 percent of all IT spending by 2014 -- creating a need for storage that works both on-premise and in the cloud."

BIM and the Cloud--The Economics of Private Cloud Computing: AECbytes Feature Article
BIM and the Cloud--The Economics of Private Cloud Computing: AECbytes Feature Article:
Great article by Chris France
"Traditional IT vs. Private CloudTraditional IT is the way most firms operate today. They design, build, and manage their own IT infrastructure inside their offices. There is an IT maxim that was true 30 years ago and will be true 50 years from now: “Centralize when you can, Distribute when you have to.” Until recently, we HAD to distribute design applications and design data to be close to the end user. When it became possible to successfully push a “BIM Workstation” to a data center, we entered into a new era of IT. What we once had to distribute, we can now centralize to gain better capabilities, economies of scale, and cost reductions. Below are the metrics of a typical “traditional IT” 300-person firm."
