Storage and Data Mgmt

Blockchain is a type of distributed ledger for maintaining a permanent and tamper-proof record of transactional data.

Customer segmentation is the practice of dividing a customer base into groups of individuals that are similar in specific ways relevant to marketing, such as age, gender, interests and spending habits.

Integrated access management (IAM) is a combination of business processes, policies and technologies that allows organizations to provide secure access to confidential data.

Blockchain is a type of distributed ledger for maintaining a permanent and tamper-proof record of transactional data.

A stored procedure is a group of statements with a specific name, which are stored inside a database, such as MySQL or Oracle.

If the database is a file of information, then the DBMS is the file folders, the file labels and the file cabinet.

Solid-state storage (SSS) is a type of computer storage media made from silicon microchips. SSS stores data electronically instead of magnetically, as spinning hard disk drives (HDDs) or magnetic oxide tape do.

Virtual machine replication is a process used by information technology (IT) professionals to create backup versions of virtual machines (VMs) The backup can be kept and used to restore the machine in the event that its data is corrupted or lost.

Data streaming is the continuous transfer of data at a steady, high-speed rate. To facilitate the need for real-time analytics from disparate data sources, many companies have replaced traditional batch processing with streaming data architectures that can accommodate batch processing.

Data deduplication -- often called intelligent compression or single-instance storage -- is a process that eliminates redundant copies of data and reduces storage overhead.

Data reduction is the process of reducing the amount of capacity required to store data.

Data archiving migrates infrequently used data to low-cost, high-capacity archive storage for long-term retention.

Cloud content management is the process of collecting, delivering, retrieving, governing and managing information within a cloud-based hosting environment.

Automatic content classification is a process for managing text and unstructured information by categorizing or clustering text.

A CDN (content delivery network), also called a content distribution network, is a group of geographically distributed and interconnected servers that provide cached internet content from a network location closest to a user to accelerate its delivery.

Client-server is a relationship in which one program (the client) requests a service or resource from another program (the server). At the turn of the last century, the label client-server was used to distinguish distributed computing by personal computers (PCs) from the monolithic, centralized computing model used by mainframes.

Primary storage is the collective methods and technologies used to capture and retain digital information that is in active use and critical for an organization’s operations.

TCP/IP, or the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, is a suite of communication protocols used to interconnect network devices on the internet. TCP/IP can also be used as a communications protocol in a private network (an intranet or an extranet).

Pure Storage is a provider of enterprise data flash storage solutions designed to substitute for electromechanical disk arrays.

An SSD (solid-state drive) is a type of nonvolatile storage media that stores persistent data on solid-state flash memory.

An SSD write cycle is the process of programming data to a NAND flash memory chip in a solid-state storage device.

High availability (HA) is the ability of a system or system component to be continuously operational for a desirably long length of time.

Tiered storage is a way to assign different categories of data to various types of storage media with the objective of reducing the total cost of storage.

Flash storage is any type of drive, repository or system that uses flash memory to keep data for an extended period of time.
