Read MoreMicrosoft Teams (Teams) is a collaboration platform that combines workplace chat, video meetings, file storage, and application integration. It is part of the Microsoft 365 suite of applications and is designed to help teams stay organized and connected. Teams allows users to communicate and collaborate in real-time, share files, and access applications from a single…
Read MoreIn this benchmark, we set out to test the value of the marketplace. We used the marketplace to buy and deploy three well-known products and contrasted that experience with buying each service separately. We selected a public cloud cost-saving solution provided as a service, an event streaming platform, and an application delivery solution frequently used…
Read MoreWe tested four SIEM products in this report: Micro Focus ArcSight, Splunk Enterprise Security, IBM QRadar, and Microsoft Sentinel. Micro Focus ArcSight and Splunk Enterprise Security both excelled in detecting and logging the battery of attacks, each scoring 10 out of 10 in our series. IBM QRadar failed to catch many of the attacks in…

Read MoreIn conventional information architectures, enterprise needs requires two different database technologies: online transactional processing (OLTP) database management systems (DBMS) to handle transactional workloads and online analytical processing (OLAP) DBMS to perform analytics and reporting. Data types also drive multiple technologies since many databases specialize in types like time series, geospatial, graph, JSON, etc. If there…
Read MoreCompetitive markets demand rapid, well-informed decision-making to succeed. In response, enterprises are building fast and scalable data infrastructures to fuel time-sensitive decisions, provide rich customer experiences enable better business efficiencies, and gain a competitive edge. In our comparative study, we used the Starlight for JMS feature included in DataStax Astra Streaming along with self-managed open-source Apache ActiveMQ…
Read MoreData security has become an undeniable part of the technology stack for modern applications. No longer an afterthought, protecting application assets—namely data—against cybercriminal activities, insider threats, and basic human negligence needs to happen early and often during the application development cycle and beyond. This benchmark report captures the number of policy changes required to manage…
Read MoreReal-time observability and enterprise systems monitoring have become critical functions in information technology organizations globally. As organizations continue to digitize and automate key functions, they are introducing more complex systems, hypervisors, virtual machines, Kubernetes, devices, and applications—all of which are generating more log and event data. While the amount of usable log data is growing,…
