What do you think is a more secure way of securely removing data from a hard drive - putting it through a shredder, or doing an instant secure erase? The answer might surprise you! Companies go to great lengths to secure their data and prevent confidential information from being made available to others. When a company is done using its ICT equipment, including the storage device, it is important to render the data inaccessible. Sanitization is a process or method to render access to target data on storage media infeasible for a given level of effort.

Organizations are adopting containers at an increasingly rapid rate. In fact, there are few organizations that haven’t implemented containers in their environment today.
 
Storage implications for Kubernetes will be the topic of this live webcast where storage experts from SNIA and Kubernetes experts from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) will discuss:

Our 1st and 2nd webcasts in this xPU series explained what xPUs are, how they work, and what they can do. In this 3rd webcast, we will dive deeper into next steps for xPU deployment and solutions, discussing:

When to deploy

• Pros and cons of dedicated accelerator chips versus running everything on the CPU
• xPU use cases across hybrid, multi-cloud and edge environments
• Cost and power considerations

Where to deploy
