What Is S3-Compatible Backup Storage?

Aug 24, 2026 By Mark Austen In Megaport
A backup is only useful if the data is still there when something goes wrong — and if it can be restored quickly enough to matter. As backup volumes grow, teams need more capacity without losing control of recovery performance or cost. S3-compatible backup storage gives teams another way to handle that pressure. It uses the familiar Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) API model without requiring backup data to live in Amazon S3 itself.

Why AI Adoption Fails Without Operational Maturity First

Aug 24, 2026 By Amanda Doucette-Lachapelle In Auvik
Most MSPs are already experimenting with AI in some form, and every vendor at every conference has an AI for MSPs pitch ready. Few have stopped to check whether their own operations are solid enough to scale. Our 2026 IT Trends Report found that three-quarters of IT leaders believe they have an AI policy, while fewer than half of help desk staff agree. That’s the real risk: AI doesn’t fix drift, unclear ownership, or gaps between what’s documented and what’s actually happening.

How Network Documentation Software Keeps Network Diagrams Current

Aug 21, 2026 By Poonam Lalani In Motadata
When did anyone last open your network diagram and trust what it showed? A diagram drawn in a static drawing tool is accurate on the day it is saved. One quarter, two circuit upgrades and a hardware refresh later, it describes a network that no longer exists. Nothing warns you that this has happened. The file still opens, still prints, and still gets attached to change requests, which is what makes it risky during an incident.

Why latency is important when choosing an IP backbone provider

Aug 20, 2026 By Lily Bennett In Console Connect
As businesses rely on cloud computing, AI, real-time communications and globally distributed applications, network latency has become a defining factor in overall network performance. While bandwidth determines how much data can be transferred, latency determines how quickly that data reaches its destination. Even a high-bandwidth connection can deliver poor application performance if latency is too high or inconsistent.
