Summer has come and it's time to start the holiday season. However, this does not mean that the "cucumber season" has arrived in UpGreat. On the contrary, many of our clients use their holidays for various implementations, tidying up systems, renovations and "shutdowns".

Therefore, we are also busy during the holidays, but at the same time we want to make good use of the time when it is green, warm and the sun is shining. Cycling, professionally or with the family, is a great way to spend your free time. A few days ago, we organized a BIKE DAY in our company - a professional review of all family bikes combined with non-business conversations, eating chips, pizza and drinking non-alcoholic beer, as befits responsible cyclists.

The service was carried out by our friendly company BIKE MASTER from Poznań, whom we sincerely support. In total, 14 bicycles were inspected.

We believe that safe use of bicycles and a healthy and ecological lifestyle are important. Of course, we also encourage our customers to go on bicycle trips 🙂

Our "Spring Morning with Technology - Netapp / Fortinet / Microsoft Azure Hybrid Environments" is behind us! As planned, we met with our clients yesterday, June 13 at the Mercure Poznań Centrum Hotel.

We provided a large dose of information about our services and Netapp, Fortinet and Microsoft solutions. Despite several hours of technical presentations, the Customers persevered and assessed the whole event well in surveys. Thank you!

Yesterday's presentations are also available for download upGreat, netapp, Fortinet and Microsoft.

A brief summary is provided below.

NetApp this leader in data storage technology – their domain is safe and efficient disk arrays, allowing for tens of times faster application work and shortening the backup time. NetApp is one of the few companies that successfully offers hybrid solutions that combine on-premise and cloud computing. In Poland, we can observe an impressive increase in interest in the implementation of cloud solutions, including efficient and functionally rich ONTAP "arrays" in the cloud, which naturally integrate with other local resources. We will show some interesting examples of using Microsoft Azure resources.

Fortinet is a provider of network solutions designed with digital security in mind. The impressive development of the provided functionalities goes hand in hand with the maturity and stability of the technology. Their Security Fabric platform is an integrated system that includes network appliances, firewalls, threat intelligence, device protection, and cloud security. Fortinet is once again shown as a leader among providers in the Gartner Magic Quadrant SD-WAN based on their flagships FortiGate series firewalls.

Both NetApp and Fortinet provide on-premise hardware solutions, as well as virtual and cloud-based appliances. For this reason, Microsoft Azure is a natural environment for both vendors' products. The NetApp-Fortinet-Microsoft synergy is a functional wealth that cannot be overlooked. Our customers know this more and more often, choosing hybrid solutions that provide them with flexibility, scalability and reliability.
