But this transition to a modern application framework often leaves businesses struggling to streamline the delivery of critical applications and infrastructure while delivering meaningful results to their customers and shareholders.\n\nRackspace Managed Platform for Kubernetes (MPK), powered by Platform9’s Managed Kubernetes (PMK) solution, solves these common customer challenges by providing a:\n\nSingle pane of glass for deploying and clusters managing across private and public cloud\n\nCurated platform experience through frequently requested infrastructure services for containerized workloads and applications with a high degree of Kubernetes security\n\nSpecialized support team comprised of Certified Kubernetes Administrators versed in Kubernetes, Platform9 and multicloud\n\nDownload Kubernetes-as-a-service Data Sheet→\n\nA pod includes a small group of Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)-certified engineers, a lead architect and an engagement manager who work together to:\n\nDesign your MPK and Kubernetes deployment\n\nManage operations of the entire stack using infrastructure as code​\n\nProvide monitoring, alerting and response for the cluster, cluster services and underlying infrastructure​\n\nAssist with the platform upgrade for all Infrastructure Applications​ and Kubernetes features alongside supported cluster services\n\nEnsure clusters are properly configured and conform to official Kubernetes specifications​\n\nOptimize performance by establishing and maintaining performance targets through routine audits, analysis and recommendations​\n\nManage security through timely upgrades, sound identity posture, container image scanning, runtime security and network protection​\n\nBy design, Kubernetes offers portability across clouds. Rackspace Managed Platform for Kubernetes enables the movement of your container-based applications across multiple clouds and environments for greater flexibility and accelerated time to market.\n\nThe Rackspace Managed Platform for Kubernetes includes support for Rackspace Hosted Kubernetes on Bare Metal, AWS EKS and support for Azure Kubernetes Service.\n\nThe Rackspace Kubernetes Stack provides a consistent set of technologies across all your clusters for repeatable and scalable deployments.\n\nAt the core of the stack, you’ll find the Infrastructure, Certified, and Catalog Application categories:\n\nInfrastructure Applications are fully integrated into MPK's software with one-click virtual machine deployments and managed upgrades.\n\nCertified Applications are deployable through MPK's software, but integration is more limited with lifecycle activities managed by Rackspace Technology and the customer.\n\nCatalog Applications are commonly open source and limited to community support. We deliberately defined this category because we realize that no two customers are alike, and it is critical that MPK allows for some level of customization.\n\nWe secure your technology stack from the infrastructure to the Kubernetes cluster, including the containers running inside the cluster and the additional services required to run applications. We care of it, so you don’t have to.\n\nBased on the same technology that allows Google to run billions of containers each week, Kubernetes can easily scale to meet the needs of even the fastest-growing enterprise.\n\nKubernetes Certified Service Provider\n\n500+ Kubernetes Clusters Managed\n\n50+ Certified Kubernetes Administrators (CKA)\n\nWe’re experts on your side, doing what it takes to get the job done right — from the first consultation to your daily operations.\n\nDiscover a partnership that can help you achieve more – for your people, your business and your customers – today and into the future.\n\nConsulting and Advisory Services\n\nDiscover related solutions to help you achieve smarter business outcomes.\n\nExperience how AWS’s leading-edge cloud capabilities can help you work smarter, lower costs and innovate with agility.\n\nAccelerate your business with Rackspace Services and tailored solutions on Google Cloud's innovative technology.\n\nSolve cloud challenges with a managed Microsoft Azure solution that helps you build new revenue streams, increase efficiency and deliver incredible experiences.\n\nTap into the full benefits of the cloud by building applications with cloud native technologies, modern architectures and automated development workflows.\n\nAdopt clouds and ease migration to accelerate innovation and optimize performance.\n\nUnlocking Agility and Innovation in the Cloud with Containers and Serverless\n\nUnlocking Agility and Innovation in the Cloud with Containers and Serverless\n\nRackspace Technology and Platform9 partnership simplifies Kubernetes adoption\n\nKubernetes Explained for Business Leaders\n\nFill out the form to be connected to one of our experts.\n\nFill out the form to be connected to one of our experts.\n\nYou may withdraw your consent to receive additional information from Rackspace Technology at any time.

Learn how resilient infrastructure protects data, sustains operations and preserves patient trust amid rising cyber threats.\n\nThe new foundation for healthcare stability\n\nHealthcare depends on trust. Every clinical workflow, every care decision and every patient interaction relies on systems that must stay available and secure. As your organization adopts more digital platforms, from EHRs and clinical imaging systems to connected medical devices and patient engagement tools, the stakes rise. That reality became clear in 2024 when more than 276 million patient records were exposed, showing how modern threats can overwhelm traditional security programs.\n\nYou already know cybersecurity is essential, but the challenge has shifted. Today, the question isn’t whether you prevent every attack. It’s whether your clinical operations continue when something goes wrong. Cyber resilience provides that capability. It gives you the operational strength to anticipate disruption, withstand impact and recover with confidence while protecting patient data and maintaining trust.\n\nMoving beyond compliance to operational resilience\n\nMany healthcare security programs were designed around compliance reporting and regulatory requirements. Compliance still matters, but the threat landscape demands a broader, operational model. You need an approach that connects security, continuity and patient safety into one coordinated strategy.\n\nThat’s the purpose of our new white paper,Strengthening Healthcare Operations Through Cyber Resilience. It breaks down the four pillars that help you build a stronger foundation:\n\n1. Business impact analysisUnderstand which systems and processes are essential to patient care, revenue and daily operations. When you know exactly what matters most, you can prioritize protection and recovery with greater precision.\n\n2. Enhanced business continuity planningMove from static binders to dynamic, well-tested plans. Effective continuity work identifies how systems fail, how quickly services must return and which dependencies need isolation or backup.\n\n3. Isolated recovery environments (IREs)Recover from a secure, standalone environment designed to remain safe even if production systems are compromised. IREs help you restore critical services faster and with greater integrity.\n\n4. Infrastructure as code (IaC)Use automated, repeatable configuration definitions to rebuild environments quickly and accurately. IaC reduces guesswork and speeds up recovery after an attack.\n\nTogether, these pillars form a resilience-driven operating model that strengthens every part of your digital ecosystem.\n\nWhy cyber resilience matters now\n\nThe financial impact of a breach is significant, with the average cost in healthcare reaching $10.1 million and roughly 21 days of downtime, but the operational consequences are even more urgent. When systems fail, patient care slows. Clinical workflows stall. Decisions take longer. That disruption can have real-world consequences.\n\nRecent studies show what you may already be seeing across the industry:\n\n70% of attacks delay patient services\n\n56% postpone diagnostic tests or procedures\n\n28% correlate with increased patient mortality\n\nThese numbers highlight the reason cyber resilience has become central to operational strategy. Downtime affects more than revenue or reputation. It affects clinical integrity, care delivery and patient outcomes. A resilient model helps you reduce that risk and strengthen your ability to operate confidently in a connected environment.\n\nBuilding a more resilient future\n\nResilience begins long before an incident. You can take meaningful steps now that build real strength across your organization:\n\nRun scenario-based simulations that mimic real-world attacks\n\nValidate continuity plans under pressure, not just on paper\n\nEstablish out-of-band communication channels that remain usable even if identity systems are compromised\n\nAutomate recovery processes to accelerate the path back to normal operations\n\nEach step builds more stability into your environment and gives your teams clarity during high-stress moments. When your security, governance and operations functions align around a resilience-focused approach, you create a health system that can protect patients, preserve uptime and sustain trust, even during disruption.\n\nCyber resilience doesn’t replace cybersecurity. It elevates it. It helps you deliver dependable care with greater confidence and positions your organization for long-term stability in a world where digital systems are inseparable from clinical operations.\n\nRead the fullwhite paperto explore how a resilience-based strategy supports secure, uninterrupted healthcare delivery.", "word_count": 747, "crawled_at": "2025-11-25 09:08:02" }, { "url": "https://docs.rackspace.com/docs/run-a-trace-route", "title": "Run A Trace Route | Rackspace Documentation", "content": "Trace routes help identify connectivity issues when you are trying to connect to your Rackspace Email mailbox.

Customer Ranked as one of the top children’s hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report , Seattle Children’s Hospital serves as the pediatric and adolescent academic medical center for Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho — the largest region of any children’s hospital in the country. As one of the nation’s top five pediatric research centers, Seattle Children’s Research Institute is internationally recognized for its work in neurosciences, immunology, cancer, infectious diseases, injury prevention and much more. Seattle Children’s Foundation and Seattle Children’s Guild Association — the largest all-volunteer fundraising network for any hospital in the country — work to raise funds for lifesaving care and research. Together, Seattle Children’s Hospital, Research Institute and Foundation deliver superior patient care, advance new discoveries and treatments through pediatric research, and raise funds to create better futures for patients. “Founded over a century ago by a group of philanthropic women, Seattle Children’s remains dedicated to its mission to provide hope, care and cures to help every child live the healthiest and most fulfilling life possible,” said Dr. Zafar Chaudry, Senior VP, Chief Digital Officer and Chief AI and Information Officer. Situation As the healthcare landscape evolved, Seattle Children's recognized the opportunity to optimize its Epic electronic medical record (EMR) system. \"Epic is our core electronic medical record and a critical component of the hospital’s patient care operations,\" said Dr. Chaudry. Seattle Children’s evaluated potential Epic hosting partners against several categories: availability, security, expertise, and cost. Ensuring continuous availability and minimizing system downtime was critical, as even brief interruptions could significantly impact patient care and hospital operations. Seattle Children’s needed a partner to provide near-constant uptime while allowing for system updates and maintenance. The hospital also needed to secure sensitive patient data in compliance with HIPAA regulations, and this challenge was intensified by the growing demand for IT resources as Seattle Children's expanded its services and patient base. In addition, Seattle Children’s needed to balance these criteria with infrastructure spend to run and maintain the EMR. “Collaborating with Rackspace Technology enables my team to focus solely on supporting our continuous availability and minimizing system downtime was critical, as even brief interruptions could significantly impact patient care and hospital operations. Seattle Children’s needed a partner to provide near-constant uptime while allowing for system updates and maintenance. The hospital also needed to secure sensitive patient data in compliance with HIPAA regulations, and this challenge was intensified by the growing demand for IT resources as Seattle Children's expanded its services and patient base. In addition, Seattle Children’s needed to balance these criteria with infrastructure spend to run and maintain the EMR. “Collaborating with Rackspace Technology enables my team to focus solely on supporting our clinicians, as they manage the complexities and risks associated with our technology.” Solution Seattle Children's turned to Rackspace Technology® for a comprehensive solution to migrate, host and manage its Epic deployment. “We partnered with Rackspace because of Rackspace Fanatical Experience® and their ability to provide an infrastructure to a guaranteed uptime of 99.999%, which means that our clinicians would have secure access to our EMR around the clock at the point of care,” said Dr. Chaudry. Chaudry said Seattle Children's selected Rackspace as its infrastructure partner for Epic for several reasons. “First, Rackspace guaranteed an uptime that couldn’t be matched,” he said. “It also provided access to skilled resources because we purchased a managed service, giving us certified Epic specialists to run our system 24x7x365 — something I could not do in-house.” To meet the hospital’s immediate needs and long-term growth, Rackspace Technology designed a fully HIPAA-compliant, HITRUST-certified hosted private cloud solution. It delivers 99.999% uptime, 24x7x365 support from certified Epic specialists, and robust security controls to help protect sensitive patient data. The scalable infrastructure will adapt to future demands, while a predictable pricing model helps to improve financial planning. To address specific requirements like network configuration and security controls, Rackspace Technology partnered with Seattle Children's. \"Rackspace and Seattle Children's worked together closely to ensure that an appropriate configuration was built that factored in elements such as cost, the actual design performance of the environment, as well as ensuring that the redundancy really met our needs,\" said Nigel Hartell, senior director and chief architect at Seattle Children's. This collaborative approach ensured that the solution met technical requirements and aligned with Seattle Children's operational needs and long-term strategic goals .

This collaborative approach ensured that the solution met technical requirements and aligned with Seattle Children's operational needs and long-term strategic goals. The Rackspace team's clear understanding of both the Epic system and the unique demands of healthcare IT allowed the combined team to tailor the solution, creating a robust and flexible foundation for the hospital's critical EMR system. \"When I started working with the Rackspace team, it was apparent that they were very familiar with Epic as an environment,” said Hartell. “They didn't look at it as a series of servers or individual technology components. They were actually aware of it as a system, which supported the success of our partnership.\" Seattle Children's clinicians now have 99.999% uptime for their EMR system, maximizing uninterrupted, high-quality patient care. Outcome Through its partnership with Rackspace Technology, Seattle Children's Hospital optimized its current IT operations and positioned itself for future innovation in healthcare technology — all in service of its mission to provide the best possible care for children. The transition to the new infrastructure concluded four weeks ahead of schedule, minimizing disruption to hospital operations. \"The feedback from clinical staff was, 'Did we actually have a downtime?'\" said Dr. Chaudry. \"That's testament to the fact that it was meticulously planned, executed and communicated.\" The new infrastructure enhanced performance with improved speed and reliability. \"With our new infrastructure running our Epic EMR, we found solid reliability,” said Dr. Chaudry. “The system is very responsive with no lag time.\" The Rackspace 99.999% uptime guarantee helps to ensure that clinicians have constant access to critical patient information. Seattle Children's also benefits from a predictable cost model, which allows for better financial planning. Rackspace transitioned Seattle Children’s from a consumption-based cost model to a fixed-fee model. By transferring responsibility for Epic infrastructure management, the hospital can increase its focus on patient care. “By leveraging Rackspace Technology's expertise, I can effectively mitigate infrastructure running our Epic EMR, we found solid reliability,” said Dr. Chaudry. “The system is very responsive with no lag time.\" The Rackspace 99.999% uptime guarantee helps to ensure that clinicians have constant access to critical patient information.

By transferring responsibility for Epic infrastructure management, the hospital can increase its focus on patient care. “By leveraging Rackspace Technology's expertise, I can effectively mitigate risk,” said Dr. Chaudry. The successful migration and optimization of the Epic system has opened new possibilities for Seattle Children's, including the use of high-performance computing (HPC) environments for research in the Rackspace Private Cloud. \"The relationship with Rackspace means that we are able to actually take care of that, and our talented team can focus on adding the right kind of libraries, packages and software that advances the science at Seattle Children’s Research Institute,\" said Hartell. This expanded use of technology is enabling Seattle Children's to push the boundaries of pediatric care and research, ultimately benefiting the children and families they serve. \"We had a great experience working with Rackspace as a true partner,\" said Hartell. \"It's essential to bring different cultures together for a successful outcome, which was our experience with the Epic migration.\" Dr. Chaudry concluded, \"We're enabling our physicians to access the right information at the point of care all the time, and this empowers our clinicians to make decisions that help our patients live their most fulfilling lives.\" About Rackspace Technology Rackspace Technology is a leading end-to-end hybrid cloud and AI solutions company.

An alert action can create tickets, notify your team, collect thread dumps, or execute remediation scripts. Datadog Monitor Conditions Links Datadog monitor policies or other triggers to the desired Datadog alert action. Datadog Alert Policy Monitors that compare current application metrics, such as response time or error rates, to thresholds. Thresholds can be statically defined based on business needs, baselines automatically generated using past data, or a combination of the two. Application Performance Management (APM) APM tools take raw data from your application and transform them into useful information about how smoothly your application runs and where potential bottlenecks might be. Rackspace uses either Datadog or New Relic as your APM tooling.

GCP Projects Each Rackspace account can house one or more GCP projects from the same Google organization. We generally recommend provisioning a GCP project per application deployment phase (e.g., development, staging, and production), thereby allowing you to assign different users in your company access to the appropriate GCP projects without complex IAM policies. In this example, developers could be granted access to provision Compute Engine instances, Cloud SQL databases, etc. in your development and staging projects, but be restricted to read access of the resources in your production project. In addition to being a strong permission boundary, GCP projects also provide a convenient construct for tracking expenses, since by default, one or more GCP projects from the same Google organization.

In addition to being a strong permission boundary, GCP projects also provide a convenient construct for tracking expenses, since by default, both GCP and Rackspace charges are grouped by GCP project. For example, if four separate GCP projects are used called app1-dev, app1-prod, app2-dev, app2-prod, it is very easy to see how much is being spent on each application environment. Lastly, using separate GCP projects per environment gives you the flexibility to select different Rackspace service levels for each environment, since Rackspace service levels are applied at the GCP project level. For example, you may opt for the Runway service level on your development project while using the Aviator service level for your production project. Offboarding Offboarding While we hope to serve you for life, should you ever decide that you no longer require Rackspace’s management of your GCP project we can work with you to transition your account to a direct relationship with GCP. You would retain access to all GCP resources but would lose access to Rackspace tooling as well as Rackspace’s GCP expertise and service. If you are considering making this change, please contact your Technical Account Manager for further assistance. Billing When you sign up for Managed Services for Google Cloud Platform, Rackspace will become your reseller of GCP services. This means that all billing of both infrastructure and management charges is provided through a consolidated Rackspace bill, and you do not have to maintain a payment relationship for those projects with Google directly. The credit card you provided when signing up for your Rackspace account will be automatically billed for both your GCP infrastructure, management charges and on-demand support fees, as described below. Billing Cycles Google bills for all infrastructure on a calendar month basis. GCP charges for the previous month’s usage are typically finalized by the 10th day of each month. After the charges are finalized by Google, both infrastructure and management charges are added .

After the charges are finalized by Google, both infrastructure and management charges are added to your Rackspace account and will appear on your next Rackspace bill. Each line item will include the month in which the charges were incurred. Your Rackspace bill is created the 15th of each month, unless you are using an account originally created for the Rackspace Public Cloud, in which case you will be billed based on the anniversary date the account was created. Monthly Management Fees Monthly management fees for each Aviator GCP project will be billed at the rate agreed upon during the project’s onboarding. During your first month of management for each GCP project, your monthly management fee is prorated based on the start date of management. On-Demand Support Fees On-Demand support fees for a Runway project ticket are estimated and scoped up front for each ticket by the support team. The fee needs to be agreed to before work begins. Agreed upon fees are included in the upcoming billing cycle. On-Demand support fee is structured as a cost for the ticket and a cost for the time spent on the ticket. Time is billed in 30-minute increments, rounded up.

From there, you can add and manage existing users, selecting which parts of the Rackspace Control Panel they should have access to. GCP Project Permissions GCP project permissions are managed via Google Cloud Identity and Access Management . If you have questions regarding the permissions, you should grant users in your company, contact a member of your support team . Identity/IAM Both Google and Rackspace encourage the use of the least permissive model for IAM. In essence, access should only be granted where necessary to accomplish tasks. Due to our Google Deployment Manager (GDM) based infrastructure-as-code deployment model, minimizing users beyond the account used to allow Rackspace access for management is suggested. Using GDM to deploy infrastructure means user accounts with permission to manually create/destroy resources in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is not supported, and instead the GDM templates should be updated and used to deploy the infrastructure changes. The top-down permissions model used by Google means users granted organizational access have permissions that override more granular permissions applied at service levels, for example. Rackspace’s policy to avoid granting access unless necessary, and then grant it at the most granular level possible is necessary to ensure unintentional access is not granted. To ensure that your Aviator or Service Blocks projects meet this permissions model, Rackspace might periodically audit the permissions being passed to the project and require adjustments to use the least permissive model. Rackspace adds a primary service account with these roles to each of your GCP projects that we manage: [email protected] Project Browser Project Billing Manager Project IAM Admin Project Browser Project Billing Manager Project IAM Admin Additionally, permissions applied at service levels, for example.

Monitoring Rackspace uses Stackdriver Metrics to capture performance metric data for GCP infrastructure components. Stackdriver includes a large number of standard metrics via the default agent and can also be used to monitor third party applications and services via a variety of additional agents. Stackdriver metrics for installed agents are always captured and are subject to retention periods based on the Stackdriver tier purchased by the user (currently this is the same for all tiers). Customers who desire longer metric retention can opt for data to be copied to an external location, e.g., Google Cloud Storage or Big Query. Dashboards can be generated in the Stackdriver web interface to explore stored metric data, and Alert and Notification Policies can be created to inform users via a variety of means as to emergent conditions. Rackspace deploys standard alerts for Aviator customers using common GCP components like Compute Engine and Cloud SQL. These may be customized with the cooperation of the MGCP operations team.

Rackspace deploys standard alerts for Aviator customers using common GCP components like Compute Engine and Cloud SQL. These may be customized with the cooperation of the MGCP operations team. Rackspace configures a set of webhook notification targets in Stackdriver, one for each Rackspace ticket severity level. When an alert is posted to one of these webhooks, the data is received by a Rackspace system called Watchman. Watchman groups alerts into appropriate tickets according to the infrastructure involved and the corresponding alert policies. Rackspace operations personnel then respond to these alerts based on customer runbooks. Logging Stackdriver Logging can be used to capture system and application logs in GCP. Log capture is not currently configured by default for Aviator customers but can be activated with the cooperation of the MGCP operations team. Logs are retained for 30 days by default and may be archived to Google Cloud Storage and/or analyzed with Big Query. Log-based metrics can also be used to trigger alerts via Stackdriver Monitoring.

It introduces major changes to architecture and updated feature sets, such as visual analyzer, better life cycle management, and data mashups. This article provides information about some of the new features. Architecture The Oracle home location has been redefined, and there is no longer a middleware home. The Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server (OPMN) is no longer used in Oracle Fusion Middleware. Instead, system components are managed by the Oracle WebLogic Management Framework, which includes the WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST), Node Manager. All Oracle BI metadata, including the repository, the Oracle BI Presentation Services catalog, and user authentication, are stored in Oracle BI application archive (BAR) files. The BAR file is a mechanism for managing or moving a self-contained set of Oracle BI metadata between environments. Parameters are now changed directly in files. Parameter changes are no longer handled in WebLogic Server® MBeans or with the Oracle Enterprise Manager. A new command enables you to synchronize mid-tier database connection details when they have changed. A new script enables you to collect the diagnostic bundles that are needed by Oracle support or development to help resolve issues. The Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS) Security Store (Policy and Credential Store) is configured in a relational database rather than in a file. The database is the same as the one that is used by the Repository Creation Utility (RCU) that is available with Fusion Middleware. Globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) have been replaced with user names to make administration easier. Accordingly, GUIDS no longer need to be refreshed. BI System and BISystem User have been removed, and the system handles their functions internally. Consequently, corrupted system credentials are less of a problem. Visual Analyzer The Oracle BI Cloud Service Visual Analyzer is an interactive, web-based tool that is used to explore and analyze data. It enables you to perform rapid data discovery by using standard Oracle BI Subject Areas or by using your own external data sources (such as spreadsheets).The Visual Analyzer allows you to create different analyses and reports in the same place and shows the results immediately in the same page. Repository (RPD) Modeling Repository ( to be refreshed. BI System and BISystem User have been removed, and the system handles their functions internally.

Repository (RPD) Modeling Repository (RPD) modeling includes the following new command-line utilities: Download Repository Upload Repository List Connection Pool Update Connection Pool Rename Application Role Delete Application Role Rename Users Delete Users List Repository Variables Update Repository Variables Oracle BI Server now accepts the DISPLAY and SORTKEY keywords in the SQL ORDER BY expression. You can use the DISPLAY keyword to override an assigned sort order column of a logical column. Visualizations All views are enhanced so that you can right-click graphs and views to sort, drill, keep, or review the column from the views. Under Column Properties > Data Format , the Scale for % (x 100) option has been added so that you can specify whether to multiply data by 100 to display it as a percentage when setting the properties of a column. A new view, the Heat Matrix view, represents the two-dimensional data. Administration The new release includes the following improvements for administration: You can invoke WLST from a single location. The Oracle Home location has been redefined, and there is no middleware home. OPMN is no longer available in Fusion Middleware. Oracle Web Cache is not part of Fusion Middleware. The move from test to production is carried out differently. There are new commands for process control. You can manage metadata in BAR files. There is a single enterprise installation. No separate software-only or simple installation is available. Configuration is simplified. You can manage system component instances by using commands. You can collect diagnostic bundles. You can configure the Database Security Store. SSL configuration is easier. You can migrate catalog groups to application roles. You can migrate the Oracle BI 11g metadata to 12c, which a two-step process that is carried out by using the BI migration script (migration-tool.sh). Data Blending Data blending is a new concept in OBIEE 12c that enables you to blend your control. You can manage metadata in BAR files. There is a single enterprise installation. No separate software-only or simple installation is available. Configuration is simplified. You can manage system component instances by using commands. You can collect diagnostic bundles. You can configure the Database Security Store. SSL configuration is easier. You can migrate catalog groups to application roles. You can migrate the Oracle BI 11g metadata to 12c, which a two-step process that is carried out by using the BI migration script (migration-tool.sh). Data Blending Data blending is a new concept in OBIEE 12c that enables you to blend your own data with corporate data. You can include dimensions and measures from external data sources in your analyses. The external data is loaded to the database, but is not part of the BI metadata catalog. You can create an analysis that includes only data from an external source, or you can blend dimensions and measures from the external data source with dimensions and measures defined in the BI metadata catalog. The external data must be stored in a Microsoft® Excel® format spreadsheet file. You import the data from the spreadsheet file into the OBIEE database as an external data source. You then add columns from the external data source to your analyses. When the data in spreadsheet file changes, you can refresh the database with the changes. Also you can add an external data source like an Excel file through the Add Data Source option. External Subject Area Cache The External Subject Area (XSA) cache is a mechanism for caching Excel files for data mashups in databases. Enabling the XSA cache improves the performance of uploaded content. Use the following steps to create an XSA cache schema: Connect to Oracle 11g or 12c databases by using SQL Developer or SQLPlus. Connect to Oracle 11g or 12c databases by using SQL Developer or SQLPlus. Create a schema owner. For example: CREATE USER XSA_CACHE IDENTIFIED BY welcome1; Create a schema owner. For example: CREATE USER XSA_CACHE IDENTIFIED BY welcome1; Grant session and create table privileges to the schema owner. For example: GRANT CREATE SESSION TO XSA_CACHE; or GRANT CREATE TABLE TO XSA_CACHE; Grant session and create table privileges to the schema owner. For example: GRANT CREATE SESSION TO XSA_CACHE; or GRANT CREATE TABLE TO XSA_CACHE; Create a table ATE USER XSA_CACHE IDENTIFIED BY welcome1; Create a schema owner. For example: CREATE USER XSA_CACHE IDENTIFIED BY welcome1; Grant session and create table privileges to the schema owner. For example: GRANT CREATE SESSION TO XSA_CACHE; or GRANT CREATE TABLE TO XSA_CACHE; Grant session and create table privileges to the schema owner. For example: GRANT CREATE SESSION TO XSA_CACHE; or GRANT CREATE TABLE TO XSA_CACHE; Create a table space and note the correct data file path. For example: CREATE TABLESPACE XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE DATAFILE '/ scratch/app/12c/oradata/CEAL/datafile/xsa_cache_tablespace.dbf' SIZE 5G Create a table space and note the correct data file path. For example: CREATE TABLESPACE XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE DATAFILE '/ scratch/app/12c/oradata/CEAL/datafile/xsa_cache_tablespace.dbf' SIZE 5G Alter the schema owner to use the table space created above. For example: ALTER USER XSA_CACHE DEFAULT TABLESPACE XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE; or ALTER USER XSA_CACHE QUOTA UNLIMITED ON XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE; Alter the schema owner to use the table space created above. For example: ALTER USER XSA_CACHE DEFAULT TABLESPACE XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE; or ALTER USER XSA_CACHE QUOTA UNLIMITED ON XSA_CACHE_TABLESPACE; Use the following steps to prepare the live repository: Open a live repository in online mode by using the OBIEE 12.2.1 Administration Tool on Windows 2012 R2.

If you need to configure your DNS for Rackspace Cloud Office Email products, see Set up DNS records for Cloud Office email . Prerequisite Applies to: Administrators and Users For more information on prerequisite terminology, see Cloud Office support terminology . DNS records The following DNS record definitions also include an example of how to configure these records at your DNS hosting provider: A record MX record CNAME record TXT record The Address (A) record is the most basic DNS record type. It points a domain or subdomain to an IP address. Example: Mail Exchanger (MX) records specify a mail server responsible for accepting messages addressed to your domain. Without these records, emails addressed to your domain cannot find your mailbox. Think of it as sending a letter to an address that does not exist. The system returns the email to the sender if the MX records don't exist. Example: Note : Email hosts might ask for multiple MX record entries. These examples are actually the MX records for Rackspace Cloud Office. We require two records entries in case the first MX server experiences a disruption. This redundancy ensures you still receive your email. Canonical Name (CNAME) records specify that a domain name is an alias for another domain. Example: Note: A common CNAME record entry is an Autodiscover Record. The example shown is the CNAME record used by our Rackspace Cloud Office users to redirect their autodiscover.example.com subdomain to our Autodiscover server ( autodiscover.emailsrvr.com ). External sources reference text (TXT) records to check for domain-specific policies such as SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. Example: Following are some common email-related TXT records: Sender Policy Framework (SPF) records help recipient mail servers identify unauthorized use of your domain in the form of forgeries (spoofing). Note: If you send email from other providers on behalf of your domain, be sure to include their sending servers in the same SPF record entry. Do not create multiple SPF records.

The recipient mail server then validates the message that you sent by using your DKIM and SPF policies. Note: SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are important because of increased “spoofing” and “phishing” attempts. Mail recipients are adopting these methods of sender authentication to combat malicious email. This authentication protects those to whom you are sending mail, and it also helps identify the mail you send as legitimate. DNS propagation When you add or edit one of the preceding records in your DNS zone file, the update must go through a propagation period. The industry standard for DNS propagation time is 24-48 hours. For example, if you change your domain MX records, the change might take up to 48 hours to complete. The propagation takes so long because your domain is associated with an IP address in thousands of databases worldwide. Updated 5 �phishing” attempts.

Prior to migrating, we recommend that you review this information for your source (current) mail server. After you have reviewed this information, you can follow the steps in the article Migrate your email by using the Self-Service Migration tool to complete your migration. POP server POP mail servers store email on the user's local computer and not the source server so you might not need to migrate your users' mail. Therefore, we recommend a local data migration, which you can perform by following the steps in these articles: (Mac) Migrating from a POP server to Rackspace email IMAP using Outlook 2011 (Mac) Migrating from a POP server to Rackspace email IMAP using Outlook 2011 (Windows) Migrating from a POP server to Rackspace Email using Outlook 2010 (Windows) Migrating from a POP server to Rackspace Email using Outlook 2010 IMAP server IMAP migrations copy the email data in the inbox and subfolders of the inbox if the data is stored on your source server. Any contacts, calendars, notes, and every other piece of information that is not stored in a user's inbox is not migrated. The migration tool typically accesses IMAP servers by using either the incoming server's address listed in the mail client or by using the webmail address for your current mail provider. You can also use the server's IP address in place of any other host name or server address. We recommend testing IMAP server access before migrating. Access can be tested using the DNS wonder tool . To use the tool, you need the following information: Source server name or IP address Server port number Login name, usually the email address associated with the source server Mailbox password If you have issues connecting to the server, try the following actions: Access the server though ports 142 and 993 using SSL. Some mail providers allow a connection only through one port. Log in to webmail to confirm that the username and password combination you used is correct Reset the mailbox password Folders names with special characters—such as commas ( , ), periods ( . ), slashes ( / ), and ampersands ( & )—commonly cause issues during migration. Before you begin migrating, revise folder names with special characters to use only alphan number Login name, usually the email address associated with the source server Mailbox password If you have issues connecting to the server, try the following actions: Access the server though ports 142 and 993 using SSL. Some mail providers allow a connection only through one port. Log in to webmail to confirm that the username and password combination you used is correct Reset the mailbox password Folders names with special characters—such as commas ( , ), periods ( . ), slashes ( / ), and ampersands ( & )—commonly cause issues during migration. Before you begin migrating, revise folder names with special characters to use only alphanumeric characters. After the migration has been performed, iPhone and Android mail users might notice messages sorted from the oldest to newest. Users might also notice gaps between the dates of messages. This is because the migration tool copies mail from the source server's mailbox in order from newest to oldest, but the user's mobile device will display information from oldest to newest. This only affects iPhone and Android users with messages that have been migrated using the migration tool. Outlook users and users of other mail services will not be affected. Exchange server Exchange migrations copy some of the email data stored on the source server, but the amount depends on where you are migrating to: Rackspace Email : Inbox and sub-folders of the inbox are migration Hosted Exchange : Inbox and subfolders of the inbox, contacts, calendars, task, and notes are migrated When migrating from Exchange, use the administrator credentials from your source server instead of individual usernames and passwords from each mailbox. For information about setting up your admin credentials on your Exchange source server, see this [reference page]( https://community.bittitan.com/kb/Pages/How do I create an administrator account for login.aspx#) from BitTitan. We recommend testing access to your Exchange before migrating. The migration tool accesses the Exchange server by using the Outlook Web App (OWA) URL. The URL should look similar to the following: https://mail.example.com/exchange https://mail.example.com/owa To test access to the server by using the OWA URL, enter the username (either the full email address or Exchange username) and password for the individual mailbox to log in. If you use admin credentials, you can enter these credentials and then open another user's mailbox.

Prerequisites Applies to: Administrator and User Difficulty: Moderate Time needed: 15 minutes Tools required: Email access For more information on prerequisite terminology, see Cloud Office support terminology . If you prefer a video tutorial, see Rackspace Email - Spoofing: How to identify & protect your organization . What is email spoofing? The word spoof means falsified . A spoofed email is one in which the sender purposely alters parts of the email to make the message appear as though someone else authored it. Commonly, the sender’s name, email address, and the body of the message appear from a legitimate source. Sometimes, the spoofer makes the email appear to come from a private citizen. A spoofed message can appear to come from a coworker, a bank, a family member, or any number of seemingly trustworthy sources. A good spoof looks like any other email that you normally receive. Warning: If you suspect that you have received a fraudulent message, DO NOT click any link in the message or enter any requested information. Why do people spoof email? Often, the spoofed email is part of a phishing (scam) attack. In other cases, someone uses a spoofed email to dishonestly market an online service or sell you a bogus product. The intent is to trick the recipient into making a damaging statement or releasing sensitive information, such as passwords. If you receive bounced (returned) emails for messages that you never sent, this could be a case of spoofing. Identify a spoofed message Scammers alter different sections of an email to disguise who is the actual sender of the message. To view the following properties, you must open the email headers of a suspected spoofed message. Following are some examples of spoofed properties: FROM [email protected] : This appears to come from a legitimate source on a spoofed message. REPLY-TO : This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual REPLY-TO address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. RETURN-PATH : This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual RETURN-PATH address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. SOURCE IP address or “ spoofed message. Following are some examples of spoofed properties: FROM [email protected] : This appears to come from a legitimate source on a spoofed message. REPLY-TO : This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual REPLY-TO address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. RETURN-PATH : This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual RETURN-PATH address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. SOURCE IP address or “X-ORIGIN” address: This is typically more difficult to alter, but it is possible. A spoofer can alter the first three properties by using settings in Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Hotmail, or other email software. They can also alter the fourth property, IP address, but that requires more sophisticated user knowledge to make a false IP address convincing. In the following example, it appears that the recipient has received a message from their office assistant requesting money. The subject line should alert you immediately. This user should contact their assistant through another form of communication to confirm that they did not send this message. Next, you want to discover who actually sent the message by opening the message headers. It should look similar to the following: In this message header snippet, we see that the From: field shows the message as coming from \"Assistant\"< [email protected] > . However, we can also see that the REPLY-TO: field lists [email protected] . That is a clear example of a spoofed message. You should Blocklist any address you find in the REPLY-TO , RETURN-PATH , and SOURCE IP field that is not an email address or IP address from which you normally receive mail. For more information on viewing and understanding email headers, see View and read Rackspace email headers . Combat spoofing User education is the first line of defense against these types of attacks. If you receive a spoofed message, you should perform the following tasks: Blocklist any email address or IP address listed in the REPLY-TO , RETURN-PATH , or SOURCE IP that you have determined to be fraudulent. For instructions, see Blocklist addresses, domains, and IP addresses in Rackspace Email . Immediately change the password of your email account if you or your users provided that information at any point. Alert the rest of your business to the situation.

Immediately change the password of your email account if you or your users provided that information at any point. Alert the rest of your business to the situation. Spoofing is possibly the most frustrating abuse issue to deal with because you can't stop it. Spoofing is similar to hand-writing many letters and signing someone else's name to it. You can imagine how difficult that would be to trace. The most impactful change you can make as an administrator is to implement SPF , DKIM , and DMARC records in that order. These are DNS records that add extra layers of protection to prevent malicious email from being sent out using your domain name. Sender Policy Framework (SPF) records help recipient mail servers identify unauthorized use of your domain in the form of forgeries (spoofing). Create an SPF record policy first. Note: If you send email from other providers on behalf of your domain, be sure to include their sending servers in the same SPF record entry. Do not create multiple SPF records.

Note: If you send email from other providers on behalf of your domain, be sure to include their sending servers in the same SPF record entry. Do not create multiple SPF records. DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) records assign a digital signature to mail sent from your domain, marking it as authorized mail sent from your domain. If you require instructions to enable DKIM for your Rackspace Cloud Office email, see Enable DKIM in the Cloud Office Control Panel . Creating a DKIM record is the second step in the process.

If you require instructions to enable DKIM for your Rackspace Cloud Office email, see Enable DKIM in the Cloud Office Control Panel . Creating a DKIM record is the second step in the process. Domain Message Authentication Reporting and Compliance (DMARC) records indicate to recipient mail servers that messages sent from that domain employ DKIM and SPF sending policies. The recipient mail server then validates the message that you sent by using your DKIM and SPF policies. Creating a DMARC record policy enables you to enforce DKIM and SPF records. This is the last step in the process. Domain Message Authentication Reporting and Compliance (DMARC) records indicate to recipient mail servers that messages sent from that domain employ DKIM and SPF sending policies. The recipient mail server then validates the message that you sent by using your DKIM and SPF policies. Creating a DMARC record policy enables you to enforce DKIM and SPF records. This is the last step in the process. Using record policies protects the integrity of internal emails, as well as the external reputation of your domain. Implementing this protection is a multi-step process that you must carefully follow. For more information, see Create a DMARC policy .

See Email migration services for a list of migration options. Both self-service and Assisted Migrations are free for the first 250 mailboxes . For migrations exceeding 250 mailboxes, please contact our Sales team for current pricing and assistance. Migration times vary depending on the amount of data, the number of mailboxes, and the speed of your existing email system. We can provide more specific timelines once the migration begins. The migration can be both. Rackspace offers a Self-Service option (manual setup using tools like MigrationWiz) or an Assisted Migration (automated process managed by the Assisted Migrations team). The Self-Service Migration Tool is available for most common migration types. However, complex environments may require an Assisted Migration. Please contact support for guidance on the best path for your specific account. You will need the server name and protocol (e.g., IMAP or POP settings) for your source email system.

Understanding email headers The following header is an example of a spoofed message. If you suspect that you have received a spoofing email, see Email spoofing explained for more information. From: Displays the message sender. Spammers can easily fake sender addresses. See Email spoofing explained for guidance on detecting fraud email. Subject: The topic of the message as indicated by the sender. Date: The date and time when the email message was composed. To: Displays the addresses listed in the To: and CC: fields. Headers do not show any addresses that were included in the BCC: field, as these addresses were intended to remain private. Received: Displays a sequential list of computer and servers that received this message, the time they received this message, and the final destination of the message. Received appear many times in a message header and should be read from bottom to top, as the first recipient is at the bottom of the header. Reply-To: Determines which email address is auto-populated when you click the reply button to reply to an email in your email client. Spammers can easily fake reply-to addresses. See Email spoofing explained for guidance on detecting fraud email. Return-Path: Like the Reply-To: address, this is where return mail is sent. Spammers can easily fake a return path. See Email spoofing explained for guidance on detecting fraud email. Message-ID A unique identifier assigned to a message. The Message-ID is read from bottom to top, as the first recipient is at the bottom of the header. Reply-To: Determines which email address is auto-populated when you click the reply button to reply to an email in your email client. Spammers can easily fake reply-to addresses. See Email spoofing explained for guidance on detecting fraud email. Return-Path: Like the Reply-To: address, this is where return mail is sent. Spammers can easily fake a return path. See Email spoofing explained for guidance on detecting fraud email. Message-ID A unique identifier assigned to a message. The Message-ID is useful for diagnosing a duplicate email issue. If you compare the Message-ID for multiple emails, and the IDs match, you know those messages are duplicates. X-Originating-Ip: The IP address of the computer that sent the message. While this is slightly more difficult to fake, it is still possible. The originating IP address is typically the most reliable information about where the message actually came from.

Monitoring allows Rackspace DBAs to review your database environment and provide insights and expert feedback. Rackspace DBA monitoring solutions are available for most database configurations. Rackspace Technology uses the following monitoring tools to track metrics and events in your database: Microsoft databases hosted with Rackspace Technology use Microsoft SCOM System Center Operations Manager (SCOM). Remote customers and Oracle customers hosted at Rackspace use either Unified Infrastructure Manager (DXIM) or work with Rackspace DB Monitoring to develop a custom solution. Cloud-native customers use either DXIM or any available cloud-native monitoring solution. The DBA team either fixes an issue when it occurs or notifies you of necessary next steps through the Rackspace Technology Portal. Typically, customers have a single monitoring solution for their entire account, but sometimes an environment requires multiple solutions. This chapter provides the following information about the DBA monitoring solution: Deploy Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) Deploy Unified Infrastructure Manager (DXIM) Additional monitoring for ADT customers Deploy Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) If you host your database on a Rackspace managed server, you can implement monitoring by using SCOM without any additional actions. Deploy Unified Infrastructure Manager (DXIM) You are responsible for helping to meet the following conditions to deploy the Unified Infrastructure Manager (UIM) within your environment: Provide a virtual machine to act as the DXIM hub. This virtual machine requires resources and proper configuration. You are also responsible for any additional costs associated with this virtual machine. Restart and patch the virtual machine as needed. Configure your network to enable the necessary flow of data and alerts in and out of the UIM hub. If Rackspace Technology is managing your environment, the DBA team provides the following assistance: Work with the corresponding Rackspace team to restart or patch the virtual machine. Deploy a DXIM agent onto each database server and configure it with the appropriate access roles. The following diagram outlines the network architecture for deploying the UIM solution. The following table summarizes the technical requirements for granting DBA services access to your environment by using a bastion host or a VPN.

If you need recommendations for sending email to many recipients, see Best Practices for Sending Emails to Many Recipients . If you receive a bounce message when sending an email, see our list of Common Email Bounce Messages for more information. Before You Begin For more information on prerequisite terminology, see Rackspace Email Support Terminology . For a video tutorial, see Rackspace Email - Spam Flags: Best Sending Practices . Best practices To ensure that the person-to-person emails that you send through the Rackspace mail system reach their destination, use the following best practices. Most reputable mail providers also provide their own recommendations, and we encourage you to read those as well. Basic Technical Trust Even for person-to-person email, your domain must be authenticated. Setting up SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail ) verifies to the receiving server that the email truly came from your domain, dramatically increasing trust and deliverability. Make your message layout clear and simple. Avoid overly dense, complex, or poorly constructed HTML. The most common spam indicator is broken or non-standard HTML (e.g., missing or empty tags, poor formatting), often created by older content programs. Simple formatting like bolding, bullet points, and simple color changes is generally acceptable. If you send HTML email, ensure that it is properly constructed. Items like missing or empty tags, poor formatting, and nonstandard conventions are spam indicators. Do not use invisible web-based tracking tools in your emails, and do not insert active components (such as JavaScript, ActiveX, and plug-ins) in your message. If you need rich media content, link to a media-rich page on your website. Use a mail client that provides features such as providing HTML and text versions of the message content, correctly constructed and formatted email headers, and adherence to specifications for sending email. Do not use links that contain IP addresses. All reputable sites on the Internet use domain names to identify themselves. Using IP addresses is a trigger for spam filters. If you link to other companies’ sites in your message content, ensure that they are reputable sites. Providing links to disreputable sites in your message content will cause your email to be marked in your message. If you need rich media content, link to a media-rich page on your website. Use a mail client that provides features such as providing HTML and text versions of the message content, correctly constructed and formatted email headers, and adherence to specifications for sending email. Do not use links that contain IP addresses. All reputable sites on the Internet use domain names to identify themselves. Using IP addresses is a trigger for spam filters. If you link to other companies’ sites in your message content, ensure that they are reputable sites. Providing links to disreputable sites in your message content will cause your email to be marked as spam. Spammers use abbreviated URLs to mask the destination of the link, which causes spam filters to flag messages with shortened URLs as spam. Note:** The reputation of sites or companies referenced in your email is determined by the whole of the Internet community. Note:** The reputation of sites or companies referenced in your email is determined by the whole of the Internet community. Avoid the following spam triggers: Excessive or unusual punctuation (especially exclamation points (!) and question marks(?)) Capitalization of all letters (LIKE THIS) Words such as urgent, free, and guaranteed Spaces between every letter in a word, such as H e l l o Misleading Subject Lines: Ensure the subject line accurately reflects the content. Spam filters are highly sensitive to deceptive subject lines meant to trick a recipient into opening the email. Use personalized greetings and salutations. For example, use “Hey Bob” instead of “Hey” or “To Whom It May Concern.” Generic greetings make your content more likely to appear as unsolicited mail to spam filters. Do not include disclaimers such as \"This is not spam\" or claims of legal compliance in your message. Legitimate communication does not need to advertise its legitimacy. Use conversational language. Message content that follows a consistent limited verbiage or template will appear to be computer-generated content and will be flagged as spam. Spellings like “str@nge” or “g00gle” in your emails will classify the emails as spam. Do not overtly reference topics that usually indicate spam. For example, highly recognized brands, medications, sexual innuendo, drugs, and financial schemes are easily recognizable as topics contained in spam. An email that mentions topics considered spam will cause your email to be marked as spam, even if the intent of the message is legitimate. . Use conversational language.

An email that mentions topics considered spam will cause your email to be marked as spam, even if the intent of the message is legitimate. Attachments are a common way of distributing viruses, making filters increasingly strict about attachments. Blocking zip file attachments is a prolific example of this. Avoid attaching files to your messages. Since attachments are a common way of distributing viruses, filters are increasingly strict. Instead, use shareable links to content stored in cloud file sharing services (e.g., Microsoft OneDrive with Rackspace , Google Drive, or Dropbox). If you need to send attachments, use attachment names that are simple and specific, and spell them correctly. Oddly named or spelled attachments are a common way of transporting viruses.

In some regions, including London, this has resulted in multiple locations within a small geographical area. Rackspace leaders identified which data centers offer the most reliability, high availability, and efficiency while offering our customers access to the full range of Rackspace products and services. Following this review, Rackspace decided to vacate suite J2 in the Global Switch GS2 (LON7) data center located at Nutmeg Lane, London, and relocate all colocation customers to either suite J1 (adjacent to J2) or to our facility in Crawley, LON5. We are also relocating all customers on managed infrastructure from both J1 and J2. If you have colocation cabinets in either J1 or J2 that need to be in the same facility as your managed infrastructure, you must relocate outside of the current facility. All colocation customers in J2 must vacate the suite by April 30, 2020. We will work with you to establish a suitable window for the move according to your requirements and the availability of any necessary Rackspace resources. Rackspace has extensive experience and success in data-center migrations. The dedicated migration team has handled multiple large-scale data center consolidation and closures for both Rackspace and legacy Datapipe data centers. The team can provide guidance and advice on all aspects of the move. For those customers who have never experienced a cabinet migration, we created a Colocation Migration Guide based on the experience of the migration team. If you think this would be useful, reach out to your service delivery manager or account manager to request a copy of the guide. Note : Rackspace operates a strict hot/cold aisle configuration in LON5, so we organize all the cabinets to fit this configuration. If you need more information on this, request it through your account team. Rackspace allocates space and power in the new location with all other services for which you contract with us. Where Rackspace provides the cabinets, we stand up new cabinets in advance of your move date if required. Additionally, if requested, we can carry out a physical audit of your environment and take responsibility for the physical move. We understand that this move is a distraction from your business focus, so we will use guide.

Additionally, if requested, we can carry out a physical audit of your environment and take responsibility for the physical move. We understand that this move is a distraction from your business focus, so we will use all our experience in data center migrations to help to minimize disruption. Rackspace needs to understand the interdependencies between the different environments and plan accordingly. If you have infrastructure in Global Switch that depends on the migrating environment, let your account team know as soon as possible so that they can inform the migration team. This request applies even if the infrastructure is in a different suite or if Rackspace does not host the infrastructure. If Rackspace provides the leased line, we take care of this and work with you to schedule the change. If not, you must work with your telco provider and Rackspace to understand the options for relocating the line. The data center you are moving to and your provider determine the options available to you. If you are relocating to the adjacent suite, this might just require a new cross connect. However, a move to a different data center might require a new line. Because lead times for new leased lines are significant, we advise you to reach out to your provider at your earliest convenience to understand the options. The facility is located at: In 2015, Rackspace designed and constructed the LON5 data center conveniently close to the M23 motorway and a short taxi journey from the Three Bridges and Gatwick Airport railway stations. The facility is operated 24/7/365 by Rackspace staff and benefits from the latest networking and electrical infrastructure. It has a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) value of 1.15% and is a state-of-the-art, tier 3 equivalent data center. Download a data center specification sheet here .

Properties of NoSQL Databases NoSQL is a non-schema alternative to SQL and RDBMSs designed to store, process, and analyze extremely large amounts of unstructured data. NoSQL databases deemphasize the principles of ACID (atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability). In addition, the process of normalization is not mandatory in NoSQL. Because of the size and speed of modern data, you should de-normalize NoSQL databases. NoSQL databases have the following properties: They have higher scalability. They have higher scalability. They use distributed computing. They use distributed computing. They are cost effective. They are cost effective. They support flexible schema. They support flexible schema. They can process both unstructured and semi-structured data. They can process both unstructured and semi-structured data.

The Rackspace Cloud environment has not been formally assessed for for compliance with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS). For information about PCI-DSS, see Cloud Security Solutions . For information about PCI-DSS when using Rackspace Dedicated Hosting services, see PCI-Compliant Hosting for E-commerce Websites . NoSQL Databases Are NoSQL databases secure, reliable, and scalable? NoSQL databases offer greater scalability and higher performance than relational databases. In addition, the data model that NoSQL databases use addresses several issues that the relational model is not designed to address. For example, NoSQL databases can store semi-unstructured and unstructured data. However, to support reliability and security, developers must implement their own code, which makes NoSQL systems more complex. This complexity limits the number of applications that can rely on NoSQL databases for secure and reliable transactions. Can I use NoSQL databases for all types of applications? NoSQL databases are well-suited for applications in social media, analytics, and big data. However, relational databases are still preferable for applications that require ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) transactions, such as banking applications. What data security, backup, and recovery work do NoSQL databases require, including database tuning and monitoring? Because NoSQL databases are decentralized, most have their own automatic backup and recovery processes. By fine-tuning certain database elements such as index use, query structure, data models, system configuration (such as hardware and operating system settings), and application design, you can significantly impact the overall performance of your application. How do I create databases and objects and read and write data without SQL? NoSQL databases are designed to enable the insertion of data without a predefined schema. Every NoSQL platform has a unique method of creating databases and objects. While few NoSQL platforms use query languages to build databases and read and write data, some enable users to perform these actions by using Java or Python scripting. Rackspace Managed Database Services What do Managed Database Services include? Managed Database Services offers varying levels of support.

Remote Management and Monitoring (RMM) : A dedicated VPN option for remote environments. A dedicated circuit : A third-party option available to large organizations with unique security requirements. A Bastion Host A bastion host is a proxy server that provides secure access to your network. It serves as a jump server to regulate access to the rest of the network. Your bastion hosts provide a safe way for the Rackspace Technology DBA team to access your environment. If Rackspace Technology already hosts your database, you can use bastion hosts to access your environment. If you do not host your database with Rackspace Technology, you can still choose to install a bastion host on your server to allow Rackspace DBAs to access your environment securely. If you decide to install a bastion host in your remote environment, you are responsible for all costs, management, and maintenance of this host. Remote Management and Monitoring (RMM) If you host your database remotely, Rackspace Technology can use the RMM-dedicated VPN to access your environment. To establish this connection, the Rackspace Technology team meets with the person in charge of managing your network to gather details about your environment, including: IP addresses VPN device make and model VPN device version DNS details After we collect this information, Rackspace works with the network contact to develop a dedicated VPN. Dedicated Circuits If you require a dedicated circuit, you can work with an internet service provider to set one up. Rackspace Technology allows the dedicated circuit to connect to the server where your database is hosted but is not responsible for managing or maintaining this option. Database Security Rackspace Technology requires administrative access to your database to deploy the DBA solution properly. Rackspace Technology put the following procedures in place to ensure the highest level of security: Only Rackspace Technology employees have access to your database. We log all activity within your database. All access to your database uses multifactor authentication. Any employee with access to your database is on the team assigned to your account and is a subject matter expert in your database technology.

How can I determine the Cloud Office system status? To view the Cloud Office system status, go to System Status . How do TLS and SSL work in Cloud Office? Transport Layer Security (TLS) and its predecessor, Secure Socket Layer (SSL), are cryptographic protocols that provide security for communications over networks. TLS and SSL encrypt the segments of network connections at the application layer to ensure secure end-to-end transit at the transport layer. For our purposes, they create an encrypted tunnel through which we send plain text emails. Cloud Office servers, by default, attempt a TLS connection for both in and outbound email. For outgoing mail (any of our servers sending to external MX servers), we perform TLS if the remote server advertises it. When performing outgoing TLS, our servers are permissive with the certificate. In other words, if the site is using an untrusted or self-signed certificate, as long as it is a working certificate, we should still accept it. Our outgoing SMTP servers use TLS in an opportunistic fashion. This means that our servers attempt to open an SMTP transaction with the recipient server by using TLS. If TLS cannot connect successfully, the communication defaults back to an unencrypted transmission of the data, also referred to as PLAINTEXT . Our servers respond to TLS and SSL requests to send mail to us encrypted. Use the Feedback tab to make any comments or ask questions. You can also Start a conversation with us .

Prerequisites Applies to: Administrator Difficulty: Easy Tools required: DNS host admin access Manage domain reputation Domain reputation, in terms of email, is a measure of how trustworthy others believe your domain's email to be. Every email recipient maintains their own specific measure of reputation, but there are many industry-accepted recommendations that domain owners can follow to build a solid reputation. As more and more email providers are strengthening their rules for what is considered untrustworthy, failure to follow these recommendations might lead to your mail being considered spam, rate limited, or rejected. The three pillars of any domain reputation strategy are Sender Policy Framework (SPF), Domain Keys Identified Mail (DKIM), and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC). These features are designed to provide two basic things: A method of verifying that the email comes from a legitimate source specified by the domain owner. A method of verifying that the email comes from a legitimate source specified by the domain owner. A way for you, as the domain owner, to tell email providers what to do with messages that do not meet those legitimacy requirements. A way for you, as the domain owner, to tell email providers what to do with messages that do not meet those legitimacy requirements. Individually, these three pillars are limited in how much they can do, but together they form a fairly clear process for identifying legitimate email from your domain. Providing these clear indicators is fundamental to establishing a good domain reputation. Rackspace recommends the following 1, 2, 3 approach to establish domain reputation: Create an SPF record . SPF is a DNS record that tells the world where your email is authorized to come from. This record typically contains entries for your email hosting provider and any email services you use, such as ticketing systems, Customer Relationship Management systems (CRMs), and bulk sending services.

Typically, each sending service listed in your SPF record has its own DKIM signature that it adds to your email. Create a DMARC policy . DMARC is built on SPF and DKIM. It combines the validation results from both SPF and DKIM, and adds a \"sender alignment check\" to protect against many forms of spoofing. The policy part of DMARC is what allows you, as the domain owner, to specify what to do with email that fails these checks. It also includes a reporting aspect that is critical to long-term management of your domain's reputation. This reporting gives you visibility into the email being sent as your domain: where it's coming from (SPF), whether or not it's properly signed (DKIM), and whether or not it is passing your DMARC policy.

Because many companies have multiple domains and use many services that require email, managing reputation across several domains can become complicated. Here are some general recommendations for managing your business email needs across many domains. The following sections offer some general recommendations for managing your business email needs accross many domains. Separate your email needs You should always separate mail by purpose and class (marketing, sales, transactional, person-to-person, and so on) by using specific subdomains wherever possible. The following table shows different email purposes and their suggested domain naming conventions: In addition to separating email by purpose, the following recommendations help to properly manage your domain's reputation: Never share DKIM keys between services. Each source should have its own DKIM key. Most services offer this as a feature. If a subdomain has multiple sending sources, then it has multiple SPF includes and DKIM keys. This is perfectly normal. Never share DKIM keys between services. Each source should have its own DKIM key. Most services offer this as a feature. If a subdomain has multiple sending sources, then it has multiple SPF includes and DKIM keys. This is perfectly normal. Segregating emails enables you to lock down each mail stream, as well as isolate each mail stream from any issues the others might have. This is important when it comes to managing the sending reputation of your different email sources. When it comes to managing your domain’s (and subdomain's) reputation, different classes of email have different considerations.

Don’t use vanity addresses on your primary domain for automated systems, such as [email protected] for your ticketing system. Don’t use vanity addresses on your primary domain for automated systems, such as [email protected] for your ticketing system. Configure an umbrella DMARC policy on the root domain, and create subdomain-specific DMARC policies based on the specific requirements and class of mail it represents. For example, you might use p=quarantine on your primary domain (person-to-person email), but p=reject on your outbound-only transactional email (support tickets). Taking this step also ensures that the root domain catches all DMARC reporting that might be missed or misconfigured at the subdomain level, as well as catching any unauthorized subdomains attempting to spoof your brand.

Managed Operations accounts include access to a dedicated support team available 24x7x365 by phone, chat, email, and online support ticket. The team supports your Cloud Servers from the operating system level through the application stack of Microsoft® SQL Server™, .NET® and Internet Information Services (IIS), as well as the Linux®, Apache®, MySQL®, and PHP (LAMP) stack on Linux®. Rackspace regularly patches and updates your Cloud Server. We also manage your Cloud Databases and provide basic database administrator assistance, such as user and table management and data backups.

Rackspace Technology determines the monthly individual account fee, which covers the monthly account administration. Every Cloud Server or Database instance incurs a service fee that represents the administration of each server instance. This fee structure enables Rackspace to provide you with our managed service at the lowest possible cost. We do not prorate the account fee. However, the service fee is a utility-based fee that bills only the amount of time that your instance is active. Not at this time. However, if you notice issues or have questions about capacity, your Rackspace Account team can work with you and recommend solutions. No, your Rackspace Account team does not troubleshoot your program code. New Cloud Servers on Managed Operations accounts have a basic Rackspace Cloud Backup configuration. This configuration backs up directories that commonly contain user data weekly. The default backup profile is not a full system backup. Our support team can assist you with adding more locations to the backup profile or changing the time interval between backups. Because Cloud Backup stores its archives in Cloud Files, standard storage and bandwidth costs for Cloud Files apply. Deleting a Cloud Server does not delete associated backup archives in Cloud Files. You must manually remove these archives. Because Rackspace offers Managed Operations at the account level, those services apply to every cloud product on an account. If you want Managed Operations to apply to only certain cloud products, you need to move the products for which you don't want Managed Operations to a separate account.

If you want Managed Operations to apply to only certain cloud products, you need to move the products for which you don't want Managed Operations to a separate account. During the upgrade process, Rackspace performs the following steps: Resets the root password for each server to gain access to the server. Creates a Rackspace management account on each server. Installs the Rackspace Cloud Backup agent. Installs the Monitoring Agent. If necessary, installs the vendor-provided kernel and prepare for updates. Because rebooting a server during the upgrade process might cause problems, you should image each server before an upgrade. Rackspace does not perform this step for you. You should also ensure that all of your services (such as MySQL) restart upon reboot before you upgrade. In addition, you need to open port 445 for Microsoft Windows® or port 22 for Linux for the automation to run successfully. Rackspace can open ports manually only after you associate a server to a Managed Operations account. We recommend that you work with your account manager (AM) throughout the upgrade process to ensure that you have the best possible experience. The following list describes reasons why you should work with an AM: If an automated server upgrade fails, an administrator must log in and complete the work. The automation occurs on port 22 on Linux and port 445 on Windows. If these ports are inactive, the server automation process fails, but the account still upgrades. If you don't want to use port 22 or 443 , Rackspace can make a manual change that enables you to rerun the automation on a different port. If you have older servers that run operating systems that Managed Operations doesn't support, an AM can provide you with options for moving to the most appropriate operating system. An AM can review your architecture to ensure that it's appropriate for a cloud-based environment. An AM can help you set expectations for your bill. Changing to a new service level agreement might also change your AM. When this occurs, the process includes a hand-off from your current AM to your new AM.

They are traditionally known as relational and non-relational databases, respectively. They differ in how the type of build, the kind of information they store, and how they store that information. Relational Databases A relational database enables you to store related data across multiple tables and link it by establishing a relationship between the tables. A relational database management system (RDBMS) is a database management system (DBMS) based on this relational model. All RDBMSs must satisfy ACID properties (atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability). This requirement provides an efficient way to store data because it enables you to enter data once and then reference it from elsewhere in the database. The relationships between data sets are classified as follows: One-to-one : One table record relates to one record in another table. One-to-one : One table record relates to one record in another table. One-to-many : One table record relates to many records in another table. One-to-many : One table record relates to many records in another table. Many-to-one : More than one table record relates to one table record in another table. Many-to-one : More than one table record relates to one table record in another table. Many-to-many : More than one table record relates to more than one record in another table. Many-to-many : More than one table record relates to more than one record in another table. Non-relational Databases The term NoSQL refers to databases that do not follow traditional RDBMS principles. NoSQL is an open-source database technology designed to handle big data. It was developed by Amazon®, Google®, LinkedIn®, Twitter®, and similar companies as they looked for ways to handle unprecedented data volumes and operation volumes under tight latency constraints. NoSQL databases, designed to overcome the limitations of transactional databases, can handle structured data, semi-structured data, and unstructured data. Unstructured data can include sensor data, social sharing details, personal settings, photos, location-based information, online activity, usage metrics, and other data. NoSQL databases can store semi-structured and unstructured data as documents in JSON or XML format. These types of NoSQL databases are document-oriented databases .

According to the Multicloud Annual Research Report 2022 by Rackspace Technology , 56% of technology decision makers surveyed no longer envision plans of owning a data center in five years. The cloud is well established, and companies are investing in public or private cloud containers, serverless and edge computing technologies.

These events are grouped into a single alert called a situation. This technology collects events as raw data and uses machine learning to group them based on similarity into situation tickets.

Interpret a Situation Ticket The following section explains how to interpret the three parts of a situation ticket: Subject line Initial and additional comments Ticket summary Subject Line When a situation ticket is generated or AIOps adds alerts to the situation, the subject line dynamically updates to reflect the most recent information. The following table describes the parts of a situation ticket subject line: Initial and Additional Comments Situation tickets update when AIOps adds an alert to the situation. Each update includes the new alert, a link to the situation, and the Rackspace Notification System (RNS). The following image shows an updated sample situation ticket:**** The following table explains how to interpret a situation ticket. Ticket Summary When the support team clears a situation, the system updates the situation ticket with summary information. The summary includes all alerts associated with the ticket, including any alerts that you did not previously receive because they were initially internal to Rackspace Technology. Refer to the following table to understand how to interpret a situation ticket summary: Navigate to Alerts in RNS The Rackspace Notification System (RNS) contains all alerts associated with a situation ticket. From within the ticket, you can navigate to the Notifications page in the Rackspace Technology Customer Portal. To navigate to the Notifications page, click the link in the ticket.

Use the right panel to see the alert message, view its details, and see the associated device. Click Actions to reply to the ticket or modify preferences so that you do not receive notification emails for each alert posted to the Notifications page. Notification Emails By default, the notification system sends you an email for each alert associated with a situation ticket. This default setting means that you receive an email for each situation ticket and all associated alerts. To receive emails for only the situation ticket, refer to Configure notification email preferences. Configure Notification Email Preferences By default, you receive an email for a situation ticket and associated alert notifications. This setting can produce many emails. For example, when a server goes down, you receive a ticket email and separate alert notification emails informing you of insufficient memory, unavailable Apache® service, and a Secure Shell (SSH) error. You can modify notification preferences to reduce the number of emails you receive. You can turn off email notifications globally for all devices or select the devices for which you do not want to receive email notifications. NOTE: When you turn off email notifications, either globally or for specific devices, you do not receive any notification emails, including warning notifications that are not associated with a situation ticket. For example, consider a disk usage scenario where the monitoring system generates a warning alert at 75% usage and an error alert at 90% usage. In this scenario, RNS displays the 75% warning alert but does not generate a ticket. When disk usage exceeds 90%, the monitoring system generates a ticket.

For more information, contact us . Upload the Repository in OBIEE 11g and 12c The following procedure is for OBIEE administrators to follow to upload a repository .rpd file in both OBIEE 11g and 12c versions under Unix or Linux environments. This step-by-step approach helps OBIEE users and administrators understand the main difference in the process between version 11g and version 12c. In version 11g, the Enterprise Manager (EM) URL https://localhost:7001/em was used for uploading the repository .rpd file. You use the following deployment path in a Business Intelligence Instance to upload the latest .rpd file: Deployment Upload > BI Server Repository > Upload New Files > Restart BI Services > Upload the latest RPD . In version 12c, the .rpd file is uploaded by using the WebLogic Scripting command uploadrpd . In Unix or Linux, get the data-model-cmd.sh script to execute at the following location: The Oracle Home that you use in OBIEE 12c is referred to as Middleware Home in OBIEE 11c. Use the following commands to upload the .rpd file, OBIEE12CBusinessIntelligence.rpd , in Unix and Linux environments: The descriptions for arguments you can use with the script are as follows: I specifies the name of the repository that you want to upload. For the preceding command, the uploaded OBIEE12C .rpd file OBIEE12CBusinessIntelligence.rpd script to execute at the following location: The Oracle Home that you use in OBIEE 12c is referred to as Middleware Home in OBIEE 11c. Use the following commands to upload the .rpd file, OBIEE12CBusinessIntelligence.rpd , in Unix and Linux environments: The descriptions for arguments you can use with the script are as follows: I specifies the name of the repository that you want to upload. For the preceding command, the uploaded OBIEE12C .rpd file OBIEE12CBusinessIntelligence.rpd ) was copied into the /temp directory in the Unix environment. You can copy this .rpd file to a convenient location and provide the path details after -I in the script. W is the repository’s password. If you do not supply the password, you will be prompted for the password when the command is run. For security purposes, Oracle recommends that you include a password in the command only if you are using automated scripting to run the command. SI denotes the name of the service instance. U specifies a valid user name to be used for OBIEE authentication. P specifies the password corresponding to the user’s name that you specified for U . If you do not supply the password, you will be prompted for the password when the command is run. For security purposes, Oracle recommends that you include a password in the command only if you are using automated scripting to run the command. S denotes the OBIEE host name. Include this option only when you are running the command from a client installation. N specifies the OBIEE port number. Include this option only when you are running the command from a client installation. SSL specifies to use SSL to connect to the WebLogic Server to run the command.

This is a common issue that you can fix by increasing the row limit in OBIEE 12c. By adding the parameter DefaultRowsDisplayedInDownloadCSV in the instanceconfig.xml , you control the number of rows that can be downloaded in CSV format. The instanceconfig.xml file is the parameter file for the Oracle BI Presentation Services and stores the configuration settings for the service. For more information, see this OBIEE Blog article . In the earlier versions of OBIEE, such as 1.1.1.6.x or 11.1.1.7.x, you could download more than 65,000 rows because there were no specific parameters that limited the number of rows that you could download to CSV format. Use the following steps to increase the row limit: Take a backup copy of the instanceconfig.xml file. Use the following paths to the instanceconfig.xml file for the different versions of OBIEE: For OBIEE 12c: /user_projects/domains/bi/config/fmwconfig/biconfig/OBIPS For OBIEE 11g: /instances/instance1/config/OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent/coreapplication_obips1 Take a backup of rows that you could download to CSV format.

Resolve Stuck Threads In WebLogic, you might receive the following warning: Stuck threads are Java Virtual Machine (JVM) threads that have been running for more than a configurable time (the default value is 600 seconds). The WebLogic Server automatically detects when a thread in an execution queue gets stuck. When a stuck thread cannot complete its current work or accept new work, the server logs a message each time that it diagnoses a stuck thread. If all threads in an execution queue become stuck, the server changes its health state to either Warning or Critical . As the number of stuck threads increase, your server might crash. Use the following steps to resolve this problem: Log in to the Administration Console. Log in to the Administration Console. Click Lock & Edit . Click Lock & Edit .

In addition to supporting the framework on which the application runs, this division of labor enables RAS Digital Experience engineers to go deeper into your application and support application deployment, troubleshooting, and optimization. To serve you better, the Rackspace Application Services team is divided into three sub-teams. Application Support Engineers An Application Support Engineer (ASE) is a specialist in large-scale, complex, and distributed web infrastructure that engages in direct customer communications regarding the availability, scalability, reliability, and performance of their applications. As the front line of the RAS team, ASEs possess a basic competency in all named applications that the team supports. ASEs include: Windows engineers Linux engineers The ASE team is staffed 24x7x365 and can escalate out to other specific teams on an as-needed basis. Named Application Team The Named Application team is composed of engineers and architects hired to support specific applications. Name Application engineers and architects possess a deep knowledge of the application. In many cases, they have worked for the application vendor and contributed code to the application. There is one team for each of the following supported named application: Linux® applications: Oracle® Web Commerce (ATG), Oracle CX Commerce, and Adobe® Experience Manager (AEM) Windows® applications: Sitecore®, Sitecore Commerce The Named Application teams are staffed Monday-Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM Central Time. Escalated to outside of office hours for P1 events. DevOps and Automation Sub-Team The DevOps and Automation sub-team is composed of engineers who automate as many facets of the application deployment and optimization work as possible. The DevOps team strives to increase the speed and accuracy of the service the RAS team provides and to develop tools that integrate into your environment. Deeper integration enables you to self-service by triggering automation tools and plugging into frameworks, such as a CI/CD pipeline.

Storage architecture planning addresses the underlying architecture required to support those needs. Capacity planning DBAs apply their experience and training to help clients determine their potential storage needs.

Identify disk space shortages and recommend workarounds before they impact normal operations. Assist with determining when RAM or CPU upgrades will benefit overall DB workloads. Storage architecture In order for databases to properly function, it is critical to plan and deploy databases on the proper storage underpinning. Ensuring proper disk storage implementation allows for the isolation of performance bottlenecks. DBAs are responsible for performing the following task as necessary: Separating the OS from the database at the disk layer. Separating the database from the backup disks. Isolating I/O bottleneck areas to discrete disk storage that can be tuned for the required workloads. These tasks are performed on storage area network (SAN) storage and local storage.

The best way to reach us is by creating a ticket in the MyRackspace portal and selecting your Cloudflare device, if applicable. You can also call us at (US) 1-800-961-4454 or (International) +1-512-361-4935. When should I contact Cloudflare®? Always contact Rackspace for support. If required, the Rackspace team escalates issues to Cloudflare where we have a direct line to quickly solve the problem. Is Cloudflare a free DNS provider? Cloudflare offers free DNS services to customers in all plans. Note : You do not need to move away from your registrar. The only change that you make with your registrar is to point the authoritative nameservers to the Cloudflare nameservers. Where do I change my nameservers to point to Cloudflare? Make the change at your registrar. Your registrar is body from whom you purchased your domain. If you don't know who your registrar is for the domain, you can find this by doing a WHOis search. Follow the instructions in your Rackspace Technology onboarding ticket to change nameservers to Cloudflare. How long does it take for a DNS change I made to take effect? The Cloudflare DNS default Time-To-Live (TTL) is 300 seconds (five minutes). Any changes or additions you make to your Cloudflare zone file push out in five minutes or less. Note : Your local DNS cache might take longer to update. Thus, propagation everywhere might take longer than five minutes. In rare cases, it could take up to 48 hours. Can I add domains to my Cloudflare account? Yes, however Cloudflare considers each separate domain unique with their own service contracts attached. This might result in a mixture of server levels in one account, so you should consider this concern when you deploy a subdomain. In the following example, we added example1.com to an account with an enterprise support agreement. Any subdomains, such as www and dev inherit this contract because we deployed them simply as a DNS record. If, however, we want to deploy and manage a subdomain as a separate entity, different service-level agreements apply.

Our history Our history Leading customers to success for 25 years Back when Rackspace Technology launched in 1998, hundreds of IT hosting companies were providing access to single-tenant servers over the internet. What those hosting companies didn’t provide, however, was customer service. Most wouldn’t even answer the phone. By contrast, we were a small player looking for a way to differentiate ourselves by providing better service than the big telecom companies and other competitors could. So, we hired smart people who were deeply committed to our cause and began providing end-to-end services branded as Fanatical Support®. We developed specialized expertise in technologies such as Linux and Windows and network security. We created the managed hosting industry. And as more and more customers recommended us, we quickly came to lead that industry. Fast-forward to 2006, when Amazon launched the first big multi-tenant public cloud. Developers could suddenly rent access to immense computing resources.

This upgrade provides many improvements, both in the user experience and in system performance. The new user experience includes a fully redesigned portal for managing the archive. Because many new core improvements fuel the upgrade, there are a few changes to your searches. Click here to read more about these changes. Here are a few notable examples. The new platform now has a direct URL for archive users to access the portal. The following is an example of the URL: https://view.archivesrvr.com/domaintld/ui/login The updated Archive Dashboard provides quick and valuable insight into the health and activity of your archive. The new portal takes a more direct approach to creating a new user to manage your archive. With this approach, the user’s role is now selected based on company needs instead of clicking a separate section to accomplish the same end goal. This update allows you to take an existing search and duplicate it as a new search. This saves time and effort by not having to start from scratch for each new search. The look and feel of the search results review, including viewing specific messages, is greatly improved. By having a more “mail client feel,” navigating through the search results is more intuitive. Better filtering to limit size, export formats, and notifications provides a better experience, especially on larger exports. The migration that accompanies this upgrade is automatic. You see one distinct difference. Any saved searches are migrated to the new archive portal as read- only, meaning you cannot edit or update the details of the search. Because administrators and users are re-created as part of the upgrade/ migration, the ownership of the migrated searches is not preserved. For these migrated searches, the new owner displays as “migrated search (unknown user).\" Updated 5 days ago", "word_count": 302, "crawled_at": "2025-11-25 11:37:39", "source": "rackspace-rag-chatbot", "num_chunks": 1 }, { "url": "https://docs.rackspace.com/reference/ticketing-rackspace-ticketing-api", "title": "Ticketing Rackspace Ticketing Api | Rackspace Documentation", "content": "Rackspace Ticketing API v2.0 The Rackspace Ticketing service enables users to create and update tickets for Rackspace using their own ticketing systems.

Leverage the strength of Rackspace and our VMware partnership Rackspace Technology is a trusted VMware partner with deep expertise in hybrid and multicloud solutions. We deliver managed services for VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) to help you stay optimized, secure and future-ready. Broadcom will sunset the current VMware Cloud Service Provider (VCSP) program and white-label licensing on October 31, 2025 . Starting November 1 , only invited partners can offer new services or renewals. Rackspace remains an active VMware partner and is ready to support customers and CSPs through this change. How we support you: VMware expertise: Leverage our certified engineers and proven deployment experience Specialized services: Choose from a broad portfolio of VMware-based solutions Optimized costs: VMware licenses are now bundled with managed infrastructure per Broadcom’s updated framework Managed services: Operate your environment in your data center, ours, or a colocation facility Migration funding and support: Transition with confidence using Rackspace planning, funding options, and tools Backup, disaster recovery and compliance: Stay resilient and aligned to your risk and governance needs Partner referral program : We support CSPs affected by Broadcom’s new invite-only model through collaborative service delivery Read our Frequently Asked Questions → Overview Select the best platform option for your business needs Enterprise operations: If you rely on VMware for mission-critical operations but are wary of high costs, especially for regulated workloads, it could make sense to keep using VMware for high availability and performance. For many, VMware Cloud Foundation provides the best long-term value because it eliminates third-party dependencies by consolidating tools, like SolarWinds and Puppet. Plus, it reduces costs through integrated Aria Operations and Aria Automation. Mid-market businesses: You could optimize your VMware investments by using a combination of VMware vSphere Foundation and VMware Cloud Foundation. VMware vSphere Foundation: Offers cost-effective basic infrastructure management with Aria Operations and VMware vSAN storage, which is ideal for seasonal workloads. VMware Cloud Foundation: The advanced Aria Automation can justify the additional cost. Startups: Your need for flexibility might lead you to consider re-platforming to another solution.

However, you could retain VMware for production workloads. A good option is adopting vSphere+, then gradually transitioning to VMware Cloud Foundation as your AI workloads expand. vSphere+ provides flexibility but lacks advanced automation, while VMware Cloud Foundation offers scalability and full automation. Note: As required by Broadcom’s VCSP changes, VMware licenses must now be bundled with managed infrastructure. Rackspace no longer offers standalone license or support options.

Symptoms of a compromised mailbox If any of these symptoms apply to you, take immediate steps to secure the mailbox: You have started receiving bounce messages for emails that you never sent. You notice emails that are unfamiliar. Your password has been changed. Colleagues or friends report receiving messages from you that you never sent. Forwarding rules have been added that you did not create. Your reply-to address has been changed. You received an email from Rackspace informing you that your mailbox has been disabled. Risk factors Avoiding the following factors is a small inconvenience compared to the potential damage caused by a successful mailbox compromise. If you find that any of these factors apply to you, you should take immediate steps to secure your mailbox. Weak or moderate strength passwords Delaying software updates Clicking links from unverified sources Clicking links without verifying their authenticity. Even links from what appears to be a trusted source can easily be a trick to gain access to your account. Accessing your account from a public computer, such as those in libraries or hotels. If a computer is used by strangers all day, you should assume that it is unsafe to access your mailbox from it. Accessing your account over public WiFi.

Authentication is based on the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 protocol. The SAML messages that are exchanged between an Identity Provider and Rackspace are interpreted by an Attribute Mapping Policy . This YAML Ain't Markup Language (YAML)-formatted policy maps SAML attributes to Rackspace required roles and permissions. An Attribute Mapping Policy is composed of one or more rules. These rules assign local values that are attached to a user after they log in to Rackspace, based on explicit or remote values in the SAML exchange from your third-party provider. Note : You must create a separate Attribute Mapping Policy for each Identity Provider that you want to use to log in to Rackspace. This article shows you how to create and customize an Attribute Mapping Policy. Prerequisites Before you create an Attribute Mapping Policy for your existing Identity Provider, you should have an understanding of the following languages: SAML 2.0 : SAML is a standard for defining eXtensible Markup Language (XML)-encoded assertions about authentication, authorization, and related attributes.

YAML is very similar to Javascript Object Notation (JSON) but supports useful features such as comments and the ability to easily input multi-line data. Attribute Mapping Policies are written in YAML. Configure your SAML provider to work with Rackspace Identity Federation Before you can create an Attribute Mapping Policy, you first need to configure SAML attributes and assertions in your SAML provider, such as Microsoft® Active Directory® Federation Services (AD FS) or Okta™. The SAML attributes and assertions that you configure in your SAML provider are sent to Rackspace so that they can be mapped into Rackspace permissions. Note : You can programmatically retrieve the default values for connecting your SAML provider to Rackspace by downloading the Rackspace service provider metadata file , then uploading it to your SAML provider. For instructions, see the following reference that corresponds to your SAML provider: Configure AD FS Configure Okta SAML configuration items Next, you need to export a SAML metadata file from your SAML provider. This file contains XML-encoded assertions about authentication, authorization, and related attributes. Most identity systems have a method for generating this metadata file either automatically or after some basic configuration has been completed. For specific instructions for exporting a SAML metadata file from Okta, see Configure Okta . Add your Identity Provider to your Rackspace account You can configure your Identity Provider with Rackspace in the Cloud Control Panel. Note : You can also create a new Identity Provider by using the Rackspace Identity Federation API. However, we recommend that you perform this task in the Cloud Control Panel. Use the following steps to configure your Identity Provider with Rackspace: Log in to the Cloud Control Panel . Log in to the Cloud Control Panel Most identity systems have a method for generating this metadata file either automatically or after some basic configuration has been completed.

In the Email Domains section, click Add Domain , then enter the email domain that users logging in from your organization use, such as mycompany.com . The email domain should be unique for this Identity Provider. Note : Do not enter an email format (such as @mycompany.com) in this field. If your users log in from multiple email domains using this Identity Provider, repeat this step and enter the additional email domains. In the Email Domains section, click Add Domain , then enter the email domain that users logging in from your organization use, such as mycompany.com . The email domain should be unique for this Identity Provider. Note : Do not enter an email format (such as @mycompany.com) in this field.

Default Attribute Mapping Policy A default Attribute Mapping Policy is generated when you create an Identity Provider by using the Cloud Control Panel or the Rackspace Identity Federation API. This policy shows the default attributes that are required for users logging in to Rackspace, as shown in the following example: However, you must customize the default Attribute Mapping Policy to use specific values before your users log in or are able to use Rackspace products and services. Customize the default Attribute Mapping Policy This section shows you how to retrieve, customize, and upload your default Attribute Mapping Policy to Rackspace. You can retrieve your default Attribute Mapping Policy from the Cloud Control Panel by using the following steps: Log in to the Cloud Control Panel . In the top navigation bar, select Account > User Management . Click the Identity Federation tab. Select the Identity Provider whose mapping policy you want to update. In the Attribute Mapping Policy section, click Download . You can also retrieve the policy by using the Get IDP mapping policy API endpoint. This section shows you how to edit your default Attribute Mapping Policy. We recommend that you start by reading Attribute mapping basics . Your Attribute Mapping Policy must contain the following information: A minimum of one local rule. Static or dynamically-populated values for the fields in the following table: You can set values either explicitly, or by using Attribute Mapping Policy language features such as substitutions or XPath. The following example syntax uses inline substitutions in the local rule to concisely retrieve values and simplify the policy. There are additional ways to accomplish the same scenario. For more examples and a complete guide to the Attribute Mapping Policy language, see the Attribute Mapping Policy reference guide . The following Attribute Mapping Policy example uses explicit and SAML-provided values to map the required fields. Note that it is a basic example, and more customization might be required in some cases. Note : For considerations for specific third-party SAML providers, see using Attribute Mapping Policy language features such as substitutions or XPath.

Note that it is a basic example, and more customization might be required in some cases. Note : For considerations for specific third-party SAML providers, see Configure Third-Party SAML providers . This section provides examples of assigning Rackspace permissions. All Rackspace permissions for federated users are granted through roles that are assigned in the Attribute Mapping Policy. The following code block shows a basic example of an Attribute Mapping Policy: In this example, the admin and ticketing:admin roles are explicitly assigned to any users who log in by using this Identity Provider and Attribute Mapping Policy. For basic Identity Federation setups, this example might be sufficient. For a full list of Rackspace Cloud product roles, see the Rackspace Cloud roles reference . For more complex scenarios, especially where access to Rackspace products is governed by roles or groups defined in your corporate identity system, the Attribute Mapping Policy language offers more flexible control. The following code block shows a complex example of an Attribute Mapping Policy: This example uses the substitution and piping features of the Attribute Mapping Policy in conjunction with XPath to observe the SAML groups value, and also to assign values to the local role value based on any matching scenarios. (The {0} indicator under roles causes the resultant value or values of the first remote rule to be substituted in its place.)

Each Application Serves team has participated in internal knowledge-transfer sessions that educate participants about the particular aspects of your deployment. At this time, you should have the following: Enabled automatic ticket creation Alert monitors in place A runbook that provides detailed and actionable steps to take for each alert type. From this point forward, the RAS implementation phase is complete, and your environment is being monitored. Refer to the following sections to ensure that your monitoring solution continues to run smoothly after you go live. Request maintenance Use APM to identify when deployment occurred Prepare for high volume events Resolve emergency incidents Request Maintenance You must submit a ticket to request maintenance any time that you expect Rackspace to work on your application. You need maintenance when a change results in downtime or could have an impact on service availability. While maintenance is typically associated with deploying code or configuration changes, you also need maintenance for small changes, including activating and deactivating a user. When you request maintenance, you must: Make the service request at least 48 hours in advance. We schedule maintenance on a first-come, first-served basis. Provide as much detail as possible, including the build number, the type of maintenance (deployment, patch, or configuration change), how long the maintenance should take, and any other technical details that help us provide a smooth maintenance process. The sooner you provide your detailed maintenance request, the better the outcome. Why does Rackspace request 48 hours notice? A lot of preparation goes into ensuring that your maintenance goes smoothly. As soon as you make your request, we review it, prepare for the maintenance, quality check our preparation, and then schedule the maintenance. You might receive a request from the RAS team to schedule a maintenance call within 24 hours after you submit your ticket (if necessary). Additionally, all maintenance is subject to calendar availability. The best plan is to contact Rackspace with notice as soon as you have a firm date and time preference so we can confirm availability. The technical details can come later. To notify Rackspace of planned maintenance, open a ticket in the Rackspace login portal that describes the event and includes the proposed date, time, and time zone. Rackspace uses this ticket to communicate with you for the duration of the event. The ticket is also the best place to upload written plans and the files necessary for AS team to schedule a maintenance call within 24 hours after you submit your ticket (if necessary).

Rackspace uses this ticket to communicate with you for the duration of the event. The ticket is also the best place to upload written plans and the files necessary for proper event execution. Use APM to Identify when Deployment Occurred In both New Relic and Datadog, you can set release points that enable you to compare application performance between releases. For example, if the checkout process is slower or generates more errors after you deploy changes to your environment, the APM tooling helps you identify precisely when and what kind of change you deployed. If required, you can use the APM tooling to assist with the roll back to a previous release. To enable deployment tracking, create a ticket to request that we enable deployment tracking. For Datadog, you can add an API call to your deployment process, which creates a custom even to track performance across multiple deployments. For more information, Using Datadog to track performance between releases . Prepare for High Volume Events Use the following considerations and recommendations to plan for high seasonal traffic. Your Rackspace Account team and Rackspace Application Services team can work with you to understand and implement these recommendations. They come up with a Seasonal Readiness Plan for your environment to ensure that your end users are not impacted by poor performance during peak seasonal traffic periods. General guidelines: Limit code deployments leading up to peak traffic periods to minimize changes in the environment. Consider limiting or disabling back-end administrative functionality, such as imports, catalog updates, and so on, during peak traffic periods. Consider scheduling regular, short touchpoints with all appropriate parties throughout the peak period. Two to four months before peak traffic begins Perform load testing : Engage the Rackspace Customer Success team, RAS, and Network Security to participate in load testing to observe, analyze, and take action on the results. Depending on your environment’s size and complexity, use marketing analytics data to calculate the expected peak flow of traffic and perform load testing. Refer to the following guidelines when you plan for and execute application load testing: Many environments can expect a 20- functionality, such as imports, catalog updates, and so on, during peak traffic periods. Consider scheduling regular, short touchpoints with all appropriate parties throughout the peak period. Two to four months before peak traffic begins Perform load testing : Engage the Rackspace Customer Success team, RAS, and Network Security to participate in load testing to observe, analyze, and take action on the results. Depending on your environment’s size and complexity, use marketing analytics data to calculate the expected peak flow of traffic and perform load testing. Refer to the following guidelines when you plan for and execute application load testing: Many environments can expect a 20-30 percent increase in traffic year over year. Develop a load testing plan that tests all application functions and tests for at least 125 percent of expected peak traffic. Use a load-testing tool that incorporates realistic think time to gauge the impact of real users more accurately. If you do not have a preferred vendor or tool, Rackspace has load testing partners with whom you can engage. Test against an environment that uses the same codebase and is as close to production as possible. Modern, complex applications do not scale linearly, and you cannot always accurately extrapolate real-world performance. Use metrics to establish the success or failure of a test. For example, a test is successful when at least 95 percent of transactions complete without errors. You might need to conduct multiple load tests to ensure that you can iterate through the results and achieve stability at peak user traffic levels. One to two months before the peak traffic period Integration points review : Work with the RAS team to review integration points approximately one to two months before the peak traffic period. Include internal and external integrations such as search, payment gateways, OMS, inventory, mobile, and so on. Ensure that load testing includes integration points. Where possible, review integration point architectures to determine if they are highly available. Understand the impact on users if the integration service is degraded or unavailable Configuration review : Work with the RAS team to proactively review your environment’s configuration and APM metrics, including the application, web servers, caching layers, databases, and so on. This review can uncover bottlenecks that developed during load testing. Ensure that you allow for time to make changes and then test again. APM configuration review : During the APM configuration review, engage with the Rackspace team to: Review baselines Review Service and profiling configurations Ensure that you configure health rules appropriately for the environment. Review dashboards to reduce troubleshooting time in the impact on users if the integration service is degraded or unavailable Configuration review : Work with the RAS team to proactively review your environment’s configuration and APM metrics, including the application, web servers, caching layers, databases, and so on. This review can uncover bottlenecks that developed during load testing. Ensure that you allow for time to make changes and then test again. APM configuration review : During the APM configuration review, engage with the Rackspace team to: Review baselines Review Service and profiling configurations Ensure that you configure health rules appropriately for the environment. Review dashboards to reduce troubleshooting time in the event of issues. Two to four weeks before the peak traffic period Network layer review : Engage the Rackspace Account team and Network Security team to review performance of firewalls, load balancers, and any inline devices, such as IDS, to ensure that they can handle increased traffic. CDN and caching tuning : Engage the Rackspace Account team and RAS to ensure as many static assets as possible are cached. Ideally, the CDN or cache layer should take as much traffic as possible, which reduces calls back to the application. One to three weeks before the peak traffic period Schedule jobs review : Engage the RAS team to review any scheduled jobs, such as cron jobs, scheduled tasks, and backups, to minimize impact during peak hours. Review URL monitoring : Engage Rackspace RAS to ensure synthetic transactions are in place to monitor the availability and functionality of critical business paths (for example, add to cart, checkout, search, and so on). Review account guidelines : Engage the Rackspace Account team to verify that escalation paths, return-to-service instructions, and runbooks are up-to-date and technically valid. Resolve Emergency Incidents Each production environment has a monitor that constantly assesses the availability of that environment. If the environment becomes unavailable, the monitor automatically creates an ‘Emergency’ ticket that notifies the Rackspace RAS engineer of the issue. We handle Emergency tickets, which are the highest level of severity, with urgency. The Rackspace RAS engineer takes the following actions upon notification of the Emergency incident: Acknowledges the alert in the Rackspace Customer Portal Reviews the Account Management Guidelines and the Operations Runbook to determine how to proceed. Opens a call bridge and includes the appropriate personnel on your team, such as the DBA or network administrator. Notifies all stakeholders by using a tie-in hitch that an issue has If the environment becomes unavailable, the monitor automatically creates an ‘Emergency’ ticket that notifies the Rackspace RAS engineer of the issue.

Prerequisites Applies to: Administrator and User Difficulty: Easy Tools required: Webmail Access Suspicious email is a gray area between legitimate email and spam. Webmail employs Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) indicators to determine if an email is suspicious. There are several other items you can see that indicate if an email is legitimate. These indicators are simple but are extremely valuable in determining the validity of a message. Messages that are deemed suspicious show a yellow warning banner in Webmail’s preview pane. The intent of this banner is to encourage you to confirm the legitimacy of the sender and the contents of the message before clicking on any links, downloading any attachments, or replying. Webmail clearly shows the display name and email address of the sender. Comparing the display name to the email address is a simple way to check for display name spoofing. Display name spoofing is when bad guys place a name that you recognize in the From address, such as the name of your manager, but the associated email address is not for that person. For example, Webmail shows you \"From: John Doe < [email protected] >\". Assuming John Doe is your manager’s name, < [email protected] > is definitely not your manager’s email address. Webmail shows you if the domain of the sender does not match the domain used to send the message. The domain that sent the message is represented by the 'sent from' added to the sender's address. In some cases, this situation is normal for sending services that are used for marketing and sales campaigns, newsletters, and similar email distributions. However, it can also be an indication of spoofing. Building on the previous example, if the same bad guy compromised a Gmail mailbox and is sending email pretending to be your manager, it appears in Webmail as \"From: John Doe < [email protected] > sent from gmail.com\". Assuming your manager never uses Gmail for work purposes, this is a clear indicator that the message is suspicious. To report suspicious email as spam, you can drag the message to the Spam folder, or you can click Report Spam in the More menu. Remember, it is always a best to verify any request for personal information or money that is received via email.

MongoDB stores data in JSON-like documents that can vary in structure. Because MongoDB uses dynamic schemas, users can create records without defining the data structure first. MongoDB stores related information together, which enables queries to process more quickly. To retrieve information, users leverage the MongoDB query language. Prerequisites For an introduction to NoSQL databases, see the following articles: Types of databases Examples of RDBMS and NoSQL databases Terminology and concepts Many concepts in MongoDB have close analogies to concepts in relational databases such as Oracle Database®. The following table compares the basic terminology and concepts: Feature comparison The following table compares the features of MongoDB with the features of Oracle Database: Query language Both MongoDB and Oracle Database have their own rich query language. However, there are some differences between them. Oracle Database supports procedures and functions for manipulating the data returned from the SELECT statement to handle advanced queries. In contrast, MongoDB uses callback functions for advanced queries. The mongo shell uses the JavaScript programming language to run these functions. Can you use MongoDB and Oracle Database together? Yes. There are many examples of hybrid deployments of MongoDB and Oracle Database, particularly among e-commerce applications. The flexible data model that MongoDB uses is a good fit for product catalogs because catalogs typically include multiple products with different attributes. However, Oracle Database is generally used for checkout systems because these systems require complex transactions. Oracle Database is better suited to handle such transactions because it uses ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) as its integrity model. This model gives Oracle Database integrity features that MongoDB doesn't offer, such as isolation, referential integrity, and revision control. In other cases, new business requirements push organizations to adopt MongoDB to incorporate next-generation components into their applications. For example, both MongoDB and Oracle Database use conditional entry updates, composite keys, Unicode characters, and full-text search. However, MongoDB also has a built-in map-reduce function for aggregating large amounts of data. Next step Introduction to Apache Cassandra® Use the Feedback tab to make any comments or ask questions.

RackConnect® Global is a software-defined, multi-cloud interconnection platform that links Rackspace Technology customers with other Rackspace data centers, third-party data centers, and third-party clouds through direct, private, low-latency, virtual connections. All traffic flowing between every endpoint avoids the public Internet and instead rides the Rackspace private backbone. Why should I care about avoiding the public Internet? The average enterprise uses at least five different multi-cloud platforms. A typical mix includes the following offerings: On-premises private clouds Colocation Hosted private cloud Public cloud Multiple Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Data stored and processed in each must flow from one to the other rapidly and securely. Over two-thirds of data traffic travels east-west between clouds rather than north-south to the end-user. This flow of information is susceptible to intrusion. If an adversary can make their way into the east-west traffic, there's a good chance they could make their way quickly across the network and into your platforms. How does RackConnect Global work? RackConnect Global is an ecosystem of ecosystems . Rackspace has linked the leading interconnection exchanges and cloud providers to our proprietary backbone. After you connect with the Rackspace Backbone through a Rackspace data center or edge location (backbone routers in third-party connectivity-rich colocation sites), you can spin up Virtual Connections across the Rackspace footprint as well as Partner and Provider ecosystems. These virtual connections enable Rackspace to provide multiple paths for connecting with all your workloads and applications, wherever they are across the globe for an integrated hybrid connectivity experience. For more details, see https://www.rackspace.com/cloud/hybrid/rackconnect/global . Who is the audience for RackConnect Global, and what pain points does it alleviate? Any company that uses a Rackspace service (such as colocation, dedicated hosting, server virtualization, private cloud, managed public cloud, or application services) and at least one other IT service provider should find RackConnect Global of tremendous value. The private, secure, low-latency solution saves traffic flowing between all connected environments—Rackspace and third-party—from riding the insecure and bogged down public Internet. In addition, compared to procuring long-term individual point-to-point connections from a telecommunications carrier between each of your clouds, RackConnect Global RackConnect Global, and what pain points does it alleviate? Any company that uses a Rackspace service (such as colocation, dedicated hosting, server virtualization, private cloud, managed public cloud, or application services) and at least one other IT service provider should find RackConnect Global of tremendous value. The private, secure, low-latency solution saves traffic flowing between all connected environments—Rackspace and third-party—from riding the insecure and bogged down public Internet. In addition, compared to procuring long-term individual point-to-point connections from a telecommunications carrier between each of your clouds, RackConnect Global Any-to-Any connectivity is significantly more cost-effective, more flexible, and easier to implement. What are the primary use cases? RackConnect Global is the primary mechanism for linking multiple Rackspace services across different locations. It also enables customers to link services deployed in Rackspace data centers with third-party cloud environments regardless of whether Rackspace manages them. Customers also frequently use RackConnect Global to tether Rackspace services with third-party colocation facilities and network carriers. RackConnect Global is of particular value for facilitating multi-cloud strategies. Because the public cloud scalability and elasticity make it incrementally more expensive, it’s prudent to deploy as much of the workload as possible within a static private cloud environment and only burst into the dynamic public cloud when you require additional resources. RackConnect Global is ideal for ensuring private clouds and borrowed public cloud resources across any number of providers all function together as a seamless and secure environment from an end-user standpoint. In what regions is the service available? We have RackConnect Global-enabled data centers and edge locations located across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, as shown in the following table: What are the connectivity options for users to establish a connection with RackConnect Global? Users can connect external environments by using the following methods: Physically cross-connect with Rackspace edge location routers within same colocation environment Become a participant on the Equinix Cloud Exchange Fabric or Megaport cloud exchange Procure a local loop from a telecommunications carrier to the most proximate RackConnect Global-enabled Rackspace data center or edge location What speeds does RackConnect Global support? RackConnect Global supports connectivity speeds of 50 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 200 Mbps, 500 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 Gbps. Is the traffic secure? Yes.

The attacker forges email headers in spoofing attacks so that client software shows the false sender address, which most users believe to be a legitimate source. Users will not notice the counterfeit sender in a message until they examine the sender more carefully. They are more likely to trust a name, or a company name they are familiar with and as a result, they'll click on fraudulent sites, open virus attachments, send personal information, and even wire money. Antimalware software and recipient servers can help detect and filter fraudulent messages. What to look for in a suspected fraudulent email: Fake or uncommon senders for example: “Billy Smith” [email protected] (real address) “Billy Smith” [email protected] (fake address) “Billy Smith” [email protected] (real address) “Billy Smith” [email protected] (fake address) Identify that the 'From' email address matches the display name.

Do not reply to the message in question. How Email Spoofing Works Many consumers do not check headers before connecting with an email sender, despite the fact that they reveal the genuine route and sender. The three major components of an email are: The sender address The recipient address The body of the email The Reply-To field is another component that is frequently exploited in phishing. This field can potentially be customized by the sender and utilized in phishing attacks. The Reply-To address, which can differ from the sender's address, instructs the client email software where to send a reply. Email servers and the SMTP protocol, once again, do not verify if this email is genuine or counterfeit. It is up to the user to notice that the reply is being sent to the incorrect person. An example of a falsified email is as follows: Recognize a spoof message Scammers change different parts of an email to make it appear as if the communication was sent by someone other than the intended recipient. You must read the email headers of a suspected faked message to see the attributes listed below. Some instances of faked properties are as follows: FROM: This appears to come from a legitimate source on a spoofed message. REPLY-TO: This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual REPLY-TO address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. RETURN-PATH: This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual RETURN-PATH address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. SOURCE IP address or \"X-ORIGIN\" address: This is typically more difficult to alter, but it is possible. The first three attributes can be changed by a spoofer using settings in Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Hotmail, or other email applications a lazy scammer might leave the actual REPLY-TO address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. RETURN-PATH: This can also be spoofed, but a lazy scammer might leave the actual RETURN-PATH address. If you see a different sending address here, it might be a spoofed email. SOURCE IP address or \"X-ORIGIN\" address: This is typically more difficult to alter, but it is possible. The first three attributes can be changed by a spoofer using settings in Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Hotmail, or other email applications. They can also change the fourth characteristic, the IP address, although a phony IP address takes more extensive user knowledge to be believable. CEO fraud, also known as corporate email compromise, is a frequent email spoofing attack (BEC). In BEC, the attacker impersonates a corporate executive or owner by spoofing the sender's email address. An employee in the financial, accounting, or accounts payable departments is frequently the target of this attack. When a request comes from someone they trust, especially an authority figure, even the most intelligent and well-intentioned employees might be duped into sending money. How to Protect from Email Spoofing Even with email protection in place, some harmful email messages manage to make their way into users' inboxes. There are numerous actions you may take to avoid becoming a victim of email fraud, whether you're a financial decision-maker or someone who uses personal email at work: Never click a link to go to a website that requires authentication. Always enter the official domain into your browser and authenticate there. Because the steps for viewing email headers varies depending on the email client, seek up how to view email headers for your mailbox program first. Then, open email headers and check for a PASS or FAIL response in the Received-SPF part of the headers. Use a search engine to copy and paste the contents of an email message. The text used in a typical phishing assault has almost certainly already been disclosed and published on the Internet. Emails purporting to be from an official source but with poor spelling or language should be avoided. Don't open attachments from unfamiliar or dubious senders. Emails offering huge sums of money or anything else that sounds too good to be true are almost always a scam. Be wary of emails that convey a sense of impending doom or peril. Phishing and BEC attempts to bypass receivers' inherent skepticism by implying that something horrible will happen SPF part of the headers.

Emails offering huge sums of money or anything else that sounds too good to be true are almost always a scam. Be wary of emails that convey a sense of impending doom or peril. Phishing and BEC attempts to bypass receivers' inherent skepticism by implying that something horrible will happen if they do not act promptly. If the alert warns of upcoming account closures, scheduled payment failures, or questionable behavior on one of your financial accounts, proceed with caution. Instead of clicking on the link in the email, go to the website directly through your browser. Combat spoofing The primary line of protection against these types of attacks is user education. If you receive a faked communication, you should follow these steps: Blocklist any fake email addresses or IP addresses listed in the REPLY-TO, RETURN-PATH, or SOURCE IP fields. Blocklist addresses, domains, and IP addresses in Rackspace Email has instructions. If you or your users gave that information at any stage, change your email account's password right away. Inform the rest of your company about the circumstance. Because you can't stop spoofing, it's perhaps the most aggravating form of abuse to deal with. Spoofing is akin to drafting a bunch of letters and signing them with someone else's name. You can image how tough it would be to track down that information. Implementing SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records in that order is the most important move you can make as an administrator. These are DNS records that offer extra levels of protection to your domain name to prevent fraudulent email from being sent out. Sender Policy Framework (SPF) records assist recipient mail servers in detecting illegitimate domain use, such as forgeries (spoofing). First, create an SPF record policy. Note: If you send email on behalf of your domain from other providers, be sure to include their sending servers in the same SPF record. Make no more than one SPF record. DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) records give mail sent from your domain a digital signature, indicating that it is allowed mail. See Enable DKIM in the Cloud Office Control Panel for details on how to enable DKIM for prevent fraudulent email from being sent out.

DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) records give mail sent from your domain a digital signature, indicating that it is allowed mail. See Enable DKIM in the Cloud Office Control Panel for details on how to enable DKIM for your Rackspace Cloud Office email. The process continues with the creation of a DKIM record. DMARC (Domain Message Authentication Reporting and Compliance) records inform recipient mail servers that messages transmitted from that domain follow DKIM and SPF standards. Your DKIM and SPF policies are then used by the recipient mail server to validate the message you sent. You can enforce DKIM and SPF records by creating a DMARC record policy. This is the final stage of the procedure. Using record policies safeguards the integrity of internal emails as well as your domain's outward reputation. You must carefully follow a multi-step approach to implement this protection. Create a DMARC policy for more details.\\ Use the Feedback tab to make any comments or ask questions.

Rackspace bills you on a recurring monthly basis for the PDM and ADT solutions. Rackspace Technology begins billing for your DBA subscription after we deploy a monitoring solution in your environment.

We send an invoice for any Rackspace DBA services during the month in which we render the services. Hourly Billing In addition to the recurring monthly subscription, Rackspace Technology bills you on an hourly basis for any work beyond your original contract scope. For example, if you subscribe to the PDM but request work associated with the ADT tier, we can bill you at an hourly rate. Request Out-of-scope Work You can request work beyond the scope of your current DBA subscription in the following ways: Open a ticket in the Rackspace customer portal for smaller projects such as adding more instances or upgrading a database. You can request other services, such as upgrading from DBA to ADT, by opening a ticket. Review the Portal onboarding guide for information about how to create a ticket in the Rackspace Customer Portal. The Rackspace Technology DBA team communicates with you through this ticket. You can provide any relevant information to explain your request and confirm that you agree to the charges. Contact your customer service manager to create a statement of work for larger projects, such as major version upgrades.

This article examines common password attack types and best practices to combat them. Prerequisites Applies to: Administrator and User For more information about prerequisite terminology, see Cloud Office support terminology . Common password attack types The following things are common methods used by attackers trying to compromise your accounts. Phishing is the act of impersonating a legitimate entity to obtain sensitive information from users like usernames, passwords, and credit card numbers. In email, phishing scams commonly use a method of email impersonation called spoofing . A successful phishing attack is particularly damaging because you have volunteered your current credentials to the scammer. Use the following guidelines to protect your passwords from phishing attempts: Never give sensitive information without verifying that the request is from a legitimate entity. Never give sensitive information without verifying that the request is from a legitimate entity. Never use the same password for different sites and accounts. Employing this policy helps contain the damage if you are the victim of phishing. Never use the same password for different sites and accounts.

Password best practices Meeting password requirements doesn't create a password robust enough to stop someone determined to access your account. While password requirements help prevent the most egregious of weak passwords, they don't make a password unbreakable. Use the following guidelines to protect your accounts and create strong passwords: User education . A compromise typically starts with one user and quickly spreads through a whole company. Ensure that your users are taking precautions and know password best practices. User education . A compromise typically starts with one user and quickly spreads through a whole company.

What filetypes can I export as an output? PST/NSF, File (EML), Text, PDF, or HTML. Are existing messages in my users' mailboxes added to the archive automatically? No. The fee for archiving imports is $6 per GB, regardless of the method used: If the messages already exist in Rackspace Email mailboxes, the Cloud Office team will upload the information for the user. If users have messages that do not exist in their mailboxes hosted with us, they must export their data to PST, EML, MSG, or MBOX files and compress them to either ZIP, RAR, Bz2, or GZ format.

Spam can cost millions of dollars in business productivity and infrastructure. Spammers also use spam to phish sensitive and valuable information from companies and trick people into transferring money. Knowing how to defend against spam and phishing attempts is the first step to keep your information safe. This article describes the spam filtering system used in Rackspace Cloud Office. Prerequisite Applies to: Administrators For more information about prerequisite terminology, see Cloud Office support terminology . Blocked email Rackspace Email uses industry best practice techniques to block email spam coming from known disreputable sources. We stop email we know with a high degree of certainty is not from a legitimate service, including everything from compromised servers to spam cannon services that send unsolicited spam across the Internet. Rackspace Email uses the following techniques to protect you from spam email: IP block lists provided by reputable services Blocking emails with attachment types known to exploit end-user computers Account admins can add senders to a Blocklist at both the domain and mailbox level to prevent them from reaching your inbox. Filtered email If mail passes the Blocklist checks, we apply advanced content filtering to verify spam indicators. Content filtering combines techniques to analyze email structure and content and creates key indicators that identify patterns in email. We combine these indicators with industry-wide feedback from email providers across the Internet about reported spam, phishing, and viruses. The result is an accurate, adaptive, and evolving content filtering system that is highly effective at removing spam. The filtering system does not apply to the sophisticated spammer. Instead, it scans all incoming and outgoing mail traffic regardless of sender or intent, and our filters flag message content after confirmation by the whole internet community. Outbound messages Filtering outbound email protects deliverability for all users on the Rackspace Cloud Office environment.

Ask your frequent recipients to add your domain to their safelist or whitelist to ensure they receive your messages. For more information, see Manage safelists at Rackspace Cloud Office . The recipient's mail provider likely scans outbound messages. Each provider has its own policies for flagging and filtering spam. Inbound messages When a legitimate message flags as spam, follow these recommendations: Always mark legitimate messages as Not Spam . This is the most effective method for improving the reputation of the sender and is a long-term solution. Always mark legitimate messages as Not Spam .

To combat this, many businesses are adopting a Zero Trust approach to security. What is Zero Trust? The guiding principle behind Zero Trust is “Never trust, always verify.” Effectively, in a Zero Trust security scenario, your systems wouldn’t trust a request for access to a resource just because that request is coming from within your environment. Access control is critical for Zero Trust security, which is why every request requires verification. Zero Trust security is a strategy, a mindset and an incremental journey for IT security. A comprehensive Zero Trust security model provides end-to-end protection across all of your IT components, regardless of where a service is located — multicloud or on-premises. Use Cases Strategy and consultation Making a shift in your security strategy can be challenging. At Rackspace Technology™, we work as an extension of your security staff to help guide you through the solutions that align to your security models and support your Zero Trust journey. Zero Trust is a framework that is constantly evolving to protect your organization’s sensitive data, and our experts are here to help you continually optimize your framework to protect against new vulnerabilities and emerging threats. Zero Trust Network Access To address gaps in remote worker strategy, Rackspace offers Cloudflare’s Zero Trust Network Access which includes Secure Access, Browser Isolation, and Internet Gateway into a single Zero Trust platform. Let Rackspace experts help your business reach your cloud-centric goals faster, support remote workers, and provide a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) for your cloud applications, data, users, and devices. Replace your VPN for modern remote access As remote access needs grow, organizations are increasingly shifting away from traditional VPN implementations and toward more secure and performant remote access solutions. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) creates secure boundaries around specific applications, private IPs and hostnames, replacing default-allow VPN connections with default-deny policies that grant access based on identity and context. Let Rackspace help modernize your remote network access by replacing your legacy VPN with ZTNA. Secure and optimize your applications Protect and improve the performance of your web and mobile apps, and secure cloud-native apps without slowing down development.

This article describes these issues. Email forwarding If you set up a rule on a mailbox to automatically forward messages without saving a copy, that mailbox does not archive the messages that are forwarded and deleted by using the rule. Messages are archived in the final destination mailbox only. If the final destination address is outside of your domain, messages are not archived. If you have an alias set up to forward email to an address outside of your domain, the forwarded email is not archived. When you send as an alias, Rackspace archives the sent message only if you are sending from a domain with archiving enabled or one of its accepted domains or domain aliases. If a recipient is archived, the inbound message is always archived for that recipient. When an email is sent from a Rackspace Email address to a Microsoft Exchange distribution list, the archive does not include the individual email addresses of the recipients on the distribution list. Example: If you send an email from your Rackspace Email account to the ABC distribution list that exists in Microsoft Exchange, the archive only reflects that an email was sent to the list without recording the individual recipients' names in the To field. If an email is sent to a group list that contains recipients on another domain, and the outside domain has archiving, the To field of that archived message might reveal the email addresses of all list members. If archiving is enabled for the domain but an address at that domain has a rule or filter to delete messages from specific senders, the deleted messages are not archived. If a message is flagged as spam, the message is not archived.

Information Library Data Collection Your information library data collection is another internal milestone. To reach this milestone, the RAS Digital Experience team populations an internal knowledge base with your information, such as account number, escalation contact information, build information, and so on. Coordinate APM Agent and Application Resets This milestone consists of the following tickets that require your input: Install agents : Work with the RAS team to identify the devices and applications on which to install data collection agents. It is important to ensure that the devices and applications are available and that the Rackspace Application Services team has access to them. Library Data Collection: Your information library data collection is another internal milestone. To reach this milestone, the RAS team populates an internal knowledge base with your information, such as account number, escalation contact information, build information, and so on. Create a runbook: A runbook contains procedures that the Rackspace Application Services team follows when alerts are triggered. RUM/Synthetics Define synthetic monitors: Provide the R RAS team to identify the devices and applications on which to install data collection agents. It is important to ensure that the devices and applications are available and that the Rackspace Application Services team has access to them.

RUM/Synthetics Define synthetic monitors: Provide the RAS team with detailed steps of the business transactions that you want to monitor. For more information about defining synthetic monitors. Visualizations Create Custom Dashboards: Build unified dashboards combining the APM Tool's curated views to provide actionable insights for engineering and product teams. Configure alerts: Assist the RAS team in defining alerts that fire when specific system events occur. Go/no-go live confirmed: Before you go live with your application monitoring solution, meet with the RAS team to verify the launch date, ensure that devices are monitored, and ensure that alerts are identified and properly configured. Quality control signoff The final milestone in the implementation process is a final quality control step that ensures that all tickets have been completed and closed. Add Your Teams to APM Tooling You can ask the RAS team to provide you with read-only access to either Datadog or New Relic® so that you can view the dashboard and metrics. Because you have read-only access, you must submit a ticket to the RAS team to request a change to any devices or application you are monitoring. If you want another member of your organization or a third party to access the APM tool, you must provide the RAS team with the following information for that person or party: First name Last name Email address If you want a third party to be able to create tickets or call Rackspace Support for help, consider the following guidelines: The third party must be added to the Rackspace Customer Portal. If a use is not defined in our system, we cannot provide support. Due to confidentiality, we are prevented from providing any kind of information. If you add a third party to the Rackspace Customer Portal, we assume that they are also entitled to use pre-purchased consulting hours. Write a runbook A runbook is an optional document that contains mutually agreed-upon actions that Rackspace should take on your First name Last name Email address If you want a third party to be able to create tickets or call Rackspace Support for help, consider the following guidelines: The third party must be added to the Rackspace Customer Portal. If a use is not defined in our system, we cannot provide support. Due to confidentiality, we are prevented from providing any kind of information. If you add a third party to the Rackspace Customer Portal, we assume that they are also entitled to use pre-purchased consulting hours. Write a runbook A runbook is an optional document that contains mutually agreed-upon actions that Rackspace should take on your production environment each time there is an alert. The purpose of a runbook is to return your system to service as quickly as possible. After your system returns to service, you can work with Rackspace to perform root cause analysis to determine the cause of the alert. Runbook procedures do not apply to non-production environments, including test, development, and staging environments. Why you should write a runbook You should write a runbook because Rackspace can return your system to service much more quickly than without a runbook. Because a runbook contains known issues that result in alerts firing, Rackspace engineers can skip some required diagnostic steps. If you choose not to write a runbook, Rackspace uses the following prescribed set of steps each time an alert fires: Determine if the traffic rate has increased over the last few hours or days. Determine if the error rate and response times have increased. Review warning violations that could point to a transaction or group of URLs that might have higher response times. Investigate individual transactions and determine if any method calls take a long time to return. Check the database to determine which queries are running and how much CPU time the queries require. Without a runbook, Rackspace can take much longer to diagnose an issue and return your system to service. Runbook Contents During the runbook creation process, Rackspace performs the following activities: Develops an operations runbook following the transition plan that complies with the following conditions: Where a change in law affects a change in policy, both parties discuss this change in good faith. The parties shall develop and follow specific procedures, which are described in the operations runbook, during the term of the contract. The operations runbook describes the procedures both parties use to perform the services. The operations runbook conforms to Rackspace policies and, were reasonably possible, your policies. If there is any discrepancy between the operations runbook and this service.

Common synthetic monitor transactions include a search transaction, a login transaction, and an ecommerce transaction. If any step of a transaction fails, the monitor can help identify where the problem originated. For example, the synthetic monitor can reveal a problem with the command that writes a record to a database or that the tax calculated Disaster Recovery (DR) process If the platform or application has DR, a link to the DR process that is maintained by you A hyperlink to the DR process Define a Synthetic Monitor A synthetic monitor is a NodeJS script that mimics the steps of a user transaction and tests for the success or failure of that transaction. Common synthetic monitor transactions include a search transaction, a login transaction, and an ecommerce transaction. If any step of a transaction fails, the monitor can help identify where the problem originated. For example, the synthetic monitor can reveal a problem with the command that writes a record to a database or that the tax calculated during the Add to Cart step isn’t correct. Synthetic monitors can identify problems with your site before they negatively affect your business. A synthetic monitor runs 12 times each hour, 24 hours per day. You can run synthetic monitors in different geographic locations (except Antarctica), depending on the location of your user base. You can check multiple geographies simultaneously. If there is an error in any of the 288 daily transactions, the monitor automatically creates an emergency ticket. After Rackspace acknowledges the ticket and tests the Internet connections, Rackspace consults the runbook for guidelines. Collaborating with Rackspace to write a runbook is extremely important. The user transactions that you want to test are up to you, based on your business requirements. Rackspace relies on you to identify the transactions you want to test and to provide the steps of each transaction. Rackspace sends a ticket requesting that you define your synthetic monitors. Refer to the following example when you provide Rackspace with documentation about the synthetic monitors that you want to create: Synthetic monitor name: Add Item to Cart Result of transaction: By the end of this transaction, the user has searched for and added an item to the cart. Steps : Open a browser and navigate to acme.com. On the top navigation bar, click Products > Shirts. Review the list of available shirts. Select a shirt and click Add to Cart. To begin the purchasing process, click Cart. Click Checkout. After you provide the detailed steps to Rackspace, Rackspace creates a NodeJS script that includes the steps you have documented. The following NodeJS example includes the steps identified above: You can sign off on the script before Rackspace deploys it. After you approve, Rackspace tunes the script to remove popup messages. Rackspace is responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the script. As you make changes to the user interface of your site, ensure that you coordinate , click Products > Shirts. Review the list of available shirts. Select a shirt and click Add to Cart. To begin the purchasing process, click Cart. Click Checkout.

Rackspace is responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the script. As you make changes to the user interface of your site, ensure that you coordinate with Rackspace so that Rackspace updates your synthetic monitors. Tune Business Transactions Your application monitoring solution relies on you and the RAS team to identify the critical business transactions that you want to monitor. When you come on board as a Rackspace Application Services customer, you can choose to use either Datadog or New Relic as your application performance monitoring tool. Critical business transactions are the set of pages on your site that are more important than others. For example, you might want to receive a notification when the Add to Cart page doesn’t load properly for a customer. Because this page is directly tied to revenue, it’s critical for you to know when it isn’t available. Other important pages include the Login page and the Search Results page. For pages associated with a critical business transaction, the Rackspace Application Services team can: Add custom alert thresholds that monitor page response time and error rates. Add custom alert thresholds that monitor page response time and error rates. When the defined threshold is exceeded, the Rackspace Application Services team automatically receives a ticket, and they consult the runbook for instructions on how to proceed. Configure a custom dashboard that displays business transaction metrics. Document runbooks that outline procedures to follow when responding to custom alerts. To prevent alert fatigue, limit the number of monitored business transactions to 10. As you continue to develop your application and add critical business transactions, ensure that you communicate to the RAS team about the changes you make. Development Best Practices Because applications evolve as your business evolves, your development team is critical for running and maintaining your web applications. To ensure success, approach application development in a structured, systematic fashion. When you plan your application development and deployment strategies, think about your application from a governance perspective. Ensure that the governance plan includes policies for the following DevOps areas: Source control and branch management Development tools (for example, VS, VS Code, and fatigue, limit the number of monitored business transactions to 10.

Ensure that the governance plan includes policies for the following DevOps areas: Source control and branch management Development tools (for example, VS, VS Code, and so on) Team communication Deployment tools and release management packaging, continuous integration, continuous delivery, blue/green, monitoring, and rollback) Deployment targets (don’t test in production) Testing methods (user, load, smoke, sanity, and regression) Infrastructure management (infrastructure as code, ARM templates) Escalation points (internal and external) DataOps and DevSecOps integration External integrations and APIs Rollback plan (for example, backup databases before deployment, redeploy previous code) This section includes best practices for each of the following DevOps development lifecycle phases: Planning and design Build Testing Release and deployment Monitor Planning and Design Consider the following guidelines during the planning and design phase of your project: Pick your coding methodology: A coding methodology is a framework and set of processes that organize the development process. These methodologies provide guidance about: How you gather requirements How you make decisions How the cycles of software development flow into each other and influence your choice of branching strategy and team structure. While many development methodologies are available, Agile, Lean, Waterfall, and Scrum are the most common methodologies IT organizations use to manage their projects. Keep in mind that every methodology has its pros and cons. A methodology that fits your project and available resources becomes a driving factor in steering your team toward success. Decide on your branching strategy: When you start or revamp a development process, consider which branching strategy is right for your team and project. Consider how large the development team is, whether multiple teams or a single team develop the code, and how often the code changes. While hybrid strategies are tempting, they are often more difficult to implement. All effective branching strategies include source-code management tools, such as GitHub. Standardize your environment: After you identify a strategy, you should standardize the development environment and processes that developers use when coding. We recommend that your developers available resources becomes a driving factor in steering your team toward success.

While hybrid strategies are tempting, they are often more difficult to implement. All effective branching strategies include source-code management tools, such as GitHub. Standardize your environment: After you identify a strategy, you should standardize the development environment and processes that developers use when coding. We recommend that your developers use the same integrated development environment (IDE) to enable team collaboration. By using the same IDE, developers use the same linting process that identifies code errors. When developers use the same IDE and linting process, you ensure that the application has a consistent quality level. Build Consider the following guidelines when you plan your application build processes: Incorporate unit testing: Unit tests operate on a software component to test basic functionality independent of other factors. For example, a common requirement for many web applications is to calculate sales tax. A sales tax unit test verifies that the calculated tax rate is correct. Other separate unit tests ensure that items added to the cart are visible in the cart and that the credit card information is valid. As opposed to a large, single test that incorporates all of your site’s functionality, unit tests can save development time because they help you to identify defective code efficiently. Unit tests also encourage modular coding, making it easier for you to reuse and make updates to your code. Automatic builds: It is useful to configure automatic builds in non-production environments so that a build runs whenever a developer checks in code. In addition to automating a step, which allows developers to use their time more effectively, automated builds provide real-time feedback if the code introduces a significant error. Continuous integration/Continuous deployment: Continuous integration (CI) and Continuous deployment or delivery (CD) are often linked together in modern software development methodologies. Continuous integration refers to the process of frequently merging code updates back into the main branch, often several times throughout the day, when developers address discrete features or defects. By frequently merging or integrating code, your developers’ local repositories are kept in sync, which reduces the time required to complete each merge operation. CD commonly refers to continuous deployment, a build process where deployments are performed automatically as developers check in code throughout the day. CD can also refer to the code introduces a significant error.

By frequently merging or integrating code, your developers’ local repositories are kept in sync, which reduces the time required to complete each merge operation. CD commonly refers to continuous deployment, a build process where deployments are performed automatically as developers check in code throughout the day. CD can also refer to continuous delivery, which is similar to continuous deployment in that the main branch can always be deployed, but it does not necessarily get deployed each time a developer merges code. The automation that enables CI/CD is called a CI/CD pipeline. Testing Consider the following guidelines when you plan your application testing strategy: Automate testing: You can use a tool like Selenium to run your smoke tests. Selenium automates much of the testing work and has the added benefit of performing the final, post-deployment checks on your production environment. This final check quickly catches issues during the coding process before they impact your users. Because Selenium automates testing, your QA team can perform more thorough tests than they otherwise have time to conduct. Load testing: After you update the application, you should perform load tests that identify performance bottlenecks. Apache® JMeter is an application that enables you to load test your application and identify issues that are only visible when the system is under a high load, such as during a sale or other peak times. Code reviews: Automated tests are an essential part of software development, but collaboration between developers remains an important activity that should be encouraged. Working with colleagues and mentors via code reviews not only decreases defect rates for a low investment but also provides valuable team building, employee growth, and camaraderie. Release and Deployment Consider the following guidelines when you plan your release and deployment strategy: Deployment : You, our Named Application Engineers, and our Application Support Engineers collaboratively determine the steps to take during a deployment. By using the requirements gathered during discussions with your team, our Named Application Engineers develop the automation jobs required for your deployments. The Application Support Engineers use the automation jobs and high-level processes to define deployment templates that provide detailed deployment steps. The Application Support Engineers use the deployment templates to create maintenance plans for each deployment. Another ASE reviews the investment but also provides valuable team building, employee growth, and camaraderie.

By using the requirements gathered during discussions with your team, our Named Application Engineers develop the automation jobs required for your deployments. The Application Support Engineers use the automation jobs and high-level processes to define deployment templates that provide detailed deployment steps. The Application Support Engineers use the deployment templates to create maintenance plans for each deployment. Another ASE reviews the templates to ensure their quality and that there are no anticipatable issues. An ASE works with your team to deploy your application. Rollback plan: If a deployment fails, it is important that you have a documented and tested rollback plan in place. Deployments can fail for any of the following issues: A coding error A bug or undocumented behavior of a library An incorrect assumption An issue with the vendor Rollback plans ensure that you can restore the application to a functional state, reducing the impact on your end users and preserving your brand image. Use multiple environments: In addition to a production environment, most organizations maintain a development (DEV) environment and a quality assurance (QA) environment. As you promote code or other changes between the environments, you should test at each stage. Developers working in their local environment or workstation should test their changes before pushing the code to the development environment. Thoroughly test the application in the development environment before you promote it to the QA environment. Within the QA environment, the QA team should perform regression testing on every aspect of the application. Regression testing ensures that the new features work and that they don’t negatively impact existing functionality. After you promote the new version to the production environment, perform one final test to ensure that your end users don’t experience any issues. Monitor To ensure that your application is always available and performing as expected, continually monitor the application for critical production issues, application performance issues, and the end-user experience. As a best practice, use APM tooling and synthetic monitoring to monitor the application. While Rackspace Application Services is not a monitoring team, we are happy to use our tooling to help you achieve your monitoring goals. When the RAS team instruments your environment with our APM tool, we can create default alerts for the production environment. Those default alerts cover many common situations that indicate a performance to ensure that your end users don’t experience any issues.

When the RAS team instruments your environment with our APM tool, we can create default alerts for the production environment. Those default alerts cover many common situations that indicate a performance issue or that could lead to a failure situation. However, because you are an expert in your application, you should discuss additional monitoring needs with us based on your knowledge of past issues and application requirements. Communicate your Development Timeline It is critical that you communicate with us about your development pipeline and deployment cycles. If you schedule your releases (preferred), we can add the release schedule to the runbook. If you cannot develop a scheduled release cycle, coordinate with the RAS team to develop a method by which you communicate when you release changes. Pushing out changes to your environment can trigger multiple alerts. If we are not aware of your deployment schedule and we actively monitor your environment, we might spend support hours trying to identify the source of the alert. When your runbook contains detailed information of the transactions we monitor and the steps we take to remedy any triggered alerts, Rackspace ASEs function as your first-tier response. RAS can effectively triage and remediate many issues, which frees your team up to focus on improving your business.

We have extended this capability by creating a build_config metadata key that you can use to specify the Rackspace-provided common tools that you want installed on your Rackspace cloud servers configured with Rackspace-recommended best practices. Many of the build_config metadata key options are available only when you use the Cloud Servers API to build your servers. Building your servers through the API gives you increased flexibility to configure the server how you want it and ensures that it does not conflict with any automation that you have running. If you build servers through the Cloud Control Panel, you can select only from the most common of these options. To take advantage of this feature when using the API, you use any of the defined build_config metadata key options that are available for your specific service level (Managed Infrastructure or Managed Operations) and pass your specified values to the scripts. Note: This functionality is available only when you create a server. If you want any of the tools installed after you have created the server, you must download the tools and configure them individually on the servers. If you have the Managed Operations SysOps service level, ask a Rackspace cloud engineer to install the tools on your behalf. Build configuration options Depending upon your service level, the following options are available for the build_config metadata key: gateway Available to all customers. Used with virtual network devices, such as the Fortigate-VM. This option creates a Cloud Network suitable for routing traffic and configures the virtual network device as the gateway for the Cloud Network. rack_user_only Available to Managed Operations customers. Creates a Rackspace username and password for Rackspace Support to deliver System Administrator level support. This option does not add or configure any additional components. base_mgdops_config Available to Managed Operations customers. Builds a regular Managed Operations server from a base image with a Rackspace username and password, installs and configures the Rackspace Monitoring agent to the Rackspace defaults, installs and configures Cloud Backup to the Rackspace defaults, installs all the support packages, and enables automatic updates.

Our history Our history Leading customers to success for 25 years Back when Rackspace Technology launched in 1998, hundreds of IT hosting companies were providing access to single-tenant servers over the internet. What those hosting companies didn’t provide, however, was customer service. Most wouldn’t even answer the phone. By contrast, we were a small player looking for a way to differentiate ourselves by providing better service than the big telecom companies and other competitors could. So, we hired smart people who were deeply committed to our cause and began providing end-to-end services branded as Fanatical Support®. We developed specialized expertise in technologies such as Linux and Windows and network security. We created the managed hosting industry. And as more and more customers recommended us, we quickly came to lead that industry. Fast-forward to 2006, when Amazon launched the first big multi-tenant public cloud. Developers could suddenly rent access to immense computing resources. But, to use it, a business had to hire experts in cloud infrastructure and the many complex tools, applications and databases that run on top of it. So, we stepped in to help create a new market category: managed cloud services. This meant our customers could get the world’s leading expertise and support, on their choice of the world’s leading technologies. Today, Rackspace Technology is a leading provider of expertise and managed services across all the major public and private cloud technologies. And we’ve evolved Fanatical Support to encompass the entire customer journey — providing Fanatical Experience® from first consultation to daily operations. Our passionate experts combine the power of proactive, always-on service and expertise with best-in-class tools and automation to deliver technology when and how you need it. From a humble beginning as an idea between three Trinity University classmates, we have grown to become a global company with business customers in leading expertise and support, on their choice of the world’s leading technologies.

If you are using all the disk space on your GoGrid Cloud Server, choose a larger Rackspace Cloud flavor. For SSD-based GoGrid flavors, you should choose the Rackspace General Purpose flavor. For more information on Rackspace Cloud server flavors, see Understanding flavor classes .

In some regions, including London, this has resulted in multiple locations within a small geographical area. Rackspace leaders identified which data centers offer the most reliability, high availability, and efficiency while offering our customers access to the full range of Rackspace products and services. Rackspace operates out of two main data centers in the vicinity of London, which offer high levels of redundancy in power and cooling infrastructure and high levels of resilience in the network infrastructure, consistently providing 99.999% core network uptime. Both sites are operated 24x7x365 by a team of data center operations technicians and offer the full range of Rackspace services. Find more information on the specification of our data centers here . Following a review of our global data center footprint, Rackspace decided to reduce our footprint in the Global Switch GS2 (LON7) data center by moving all managed services customers from suites J1 and J2 to an existing Rackspace data center. This document relates specifically to customers with managed infrastructure and the Stratosphere® products (EStrat, VStrat, and PCIStrat). Rackspace assigns all customers to a move group, which we will schedule for a date in Q2 of 2021. We schedule the move groups to run in a maintenance window starting on either a Friday or Saturday night and running through to the following morning. We plan to keep the maintenance window shorter than 12 hours. We confirm the exact timings when we allocate the move groups, at least 60 days in advance of the move date. Yes, we are performing a physical migration of your environment, so it will be offline while moving to the new location. We will use a physical migration method, which means that after we power down the devices in the source data center, we remove them from the cabinets and physically transport them to the destination data center. Upon arrival, we rack the devices in their new locations and bring the environment back online. The high-level stages for the move are as follows: You are allocated a move group at least two months in advance of the date. As your maintenance date nears, Rackspace works with you and your account team to establish any specific requirements for the move. During this period, Rackspace performs non-intr while moving to the new location. We will use a physical migration method, which means that after we power down the devices in the source data center, we remove them from the cabinets and physically transport them to the destination data center. Upon arrival, we rack the devices in their new locations and bring the environment back online. The high-level stages for the move are as follows: You are allocated a move group at least two months in advance of the date. As your maintenance date nears, Rackspace works with you and your account team to establish any specific requirements for the move. During this period, Rackspace performs non-intrusive audits on your environment to make sure that the information in our system is up-to-date and to get a better understanding of how it might perform when it is shut down and re-started. The results of these audits might require input from you. We will also replicate data on our shared storage platforms to the destination data center. On the night of the migration, shortly before the maintenance window is due to start, we run a final audit, place all devices under alert suppression, and make any required changes to Rackspace management IP addresses. If you requested that we shut down your devices in a specific order, we do this shortly before the maintenance window officially opens. At the start of the maintenance window, Rackspace runs an automated script to shut down all servers. After all servers are offline, we remove physical devices from the cabinets and shut down dedicated storage and network devices and remove them from the cabinets. We place all devices onto a truck and transport them to the new facility where we rack all devices in new locations that we prepared in advance with the appropriate cabling and power. Your environment undergoes basic connectivity testing, and the team performs any custom testing that we agreed to before the maintenance. You should also be prepared to carry out tests after the move completes. You can request that we contact you after we complete our tests. In most cases, we don't need to change public IP addresses. If we need to make any changes, we will work with you to minimize the impact of the change. We might need to change private IP addresses as we transition your devices to the Rackspace Managed Backup service. This product uses a separate network exclusively for backups to avoid degradation of public traffic as it takes backups. Rackspace is responsible for making these changes to devices to which we have access. If you have devices that use managed backup that Rackspace cannot access, we can give you the new IP information so can request that we contact you after we complete our tests.

Yes, if you tell us about the order in which we should shut down and re-start devices, we can follow these steps on the night of your move. If you need us to shut down the devices in a specific order, we might need to start the process before the standard maintenance window begins. If you prefer to shut down your devices or require us to involve you in the process, let us know in advance of the move. It depends on the replication method that you have set up. We recommend that you tell us about any replication or log shipping so that we can work with you to ensure that it is re-established following the move. Because we usually have no access to your colocation devices, you are responsible for shutting these down. If you take no action, our standard approach is to perform the following steps: Remove the power cables from the colocation devices after all managed devices in the environment are offline. Rack them in the destination data center following the same cabling configuration as in the source data center. Unless you provide other instructions, we cable and rack them in their new locations and power them on. We will create a ticket in the customer portal and post all updates to that ticket. Do not close the ticket until we complete the migration. Approximately one month out from your move date, we will perform a non-intrusive audit on your environment and then complete another two weeks later. After we run the second audit, you should make no more configuration changes to the environment, such as adding hardware or expanding drives on shared storage platforms. We will remind you of the change freeze and the items that are included in that freeze nearer to the time of your maintenance window. You can make changes to your applications and data during the freeze. This migration targets environments in specific suites within our LON7 data center. Whether we move different environments together depends on until we complete the migration.

Whether we move different environments together depends on the dependencies between the different environments. If your managed environment in LON7 is linked to another environment, either with Rackspace or outside of it in Global Switch, update your notification ticket with the relevant information or speak with your Rackspace account team. Rackspace will use all of its experience with data center migration projects to help support you before and during the migration. We have assembled a dedicated migration team, made up of some of the best Rackers from across the business. This team will run audits on your servers before the migration to identify and resolve any potential migration issues in advance. Ensure that you work with the migration team and your account team to resolve any issues promptly. If you fail to resolve issues that we are auditing, we might have to perform a manual shutdown in advance of the official maintenance window start time. The team will work with you and your account team to determine and agree to any special requirements that you might have for pre-migration and post-migration instructions as we turn off and turn on your environment. The migration team will focus on successfully executing your instructions on the night of the migration. We strongly encourage you to back up your data, either by using the Rackspace Managed Backup service or making your own offsite backups. If your solution is not currently being backed up, you can talk to your account team about putting a backup solution in place before the migration date. In addition to the backups, consider taking the following steps before the move night: Correct any known disk issues before migration night. Ensure that there are no disk corruption issues by running a check disk ( chkdsk ). Doing so prevents any forced chkdsk operations when your server is turned on.

Prerequisites For an introduction to NoSQL databases, see the following articles: Types of databases Examples of RDBMS and NoSQL databases Benefits of using Cassandra Using Cassandra provides the following advantages: Cassandra is high-performing and horizontally scalable. It also offers operational simplicity. Cassandra is high-performing and horizontally scalable. It also offers operational simplicity. Cassandra is fully distributed, with no single point of failure. Full distribution enables Cassandra to provide continuous availability. Cassandra is fully distributed, with no single point of failure. Full distribution enables Cassandra to provide continuous availability. Cassandra uses a peer-to-peer distribution model that makes distributing data across multiple data centers and cloud availability zones easy. Cassandra uses a peer-to-peer distribution model that makes distributing data across multiple data centers and cloud availability zones easy. Cassandra uses a partitioner, or partitioning key, to determine how to distribute data across the nodes that make up a database cluster. A partitioner is a hashing mechanism that takes a primary key of a table row, computes a numerical token for it, and assigns it to one of the nodes in a cluster. While Cassandra has multiple partitioners from which to choose, the default partitioner randomizes data across a cluster and ensures an even distribution of all the data. In addition, Cassandra automatically maintains the balance of data across a cluster even when you remove existing nodes or add new nodes to a system. Cassandra is a good choice when you have a very large amount of data and consistency isn't a priority. Terminology and concepts Many concepts in Cassandra have close analogies to concepts in relational databases such as Oracle Database®. The following table compares the basic terminology and concepts: Feature comparison The following table compares the features of Cassandra with the features of Oracle Database: Query language Both Cassandra and Oracle Database have their own rich query language. However, there are some differences between them. To handle advanced queries, Oracle Database supports procedures and functions for manipulating the data returned from the SELECT statement. In contrast, Cassandra uses the Cassandra Query Language (CQL). This language runs through the Cassandra shell, which is called cqlsh . The following table provides a few examples of how CQL statements and SQL statements differ: Source: Datastax. DSE 5.1 Administrator Guide. Can you use Cassandra and Oracle Database together? Yes.

The following table provides a few examples of how CQL statements and SQL statements differ: Source: Datastax. DSE 5.1 Administrator Guide. Can you use Cassandra and Oracle Database together? Yes. There are many examples of hybrid deployments of Cassandra and Oracle Database. In some cases, new business requirements push organizations to adopt Cassandra so that they can incorporate next-generation components into their applications. For example, both Cassandra and Oracle Database use conditional entry updates, composite keys, Unicode characters, and full-text search. However, Cassandra also has auto-replication functions that automatically distribute and maintain data across a cluster. Replication in Cassandra is very straightforward and simple to configure and maintain. While Oracle Database uses the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) integrity model, Cassandra offers the AID portion of ACID, in which the data written is atomic, isolated, and durable. The AID model enables Cassandra users to decide exactly how strong data consistency should be for a transaction or set of batched transactions batched. The strength of data consistency refers to whether all nodes must respond or if a single node responds while the others update. Cassandra users can tune data consistency within a single data center or across multiple data centers. However, Oracle Database offers integrity features that Cassandra doesn't offer, such as isolation, transactions, referential integrity, and revision control. Both Cassandra and Oracle Database are horizontally scalable and support data replication. Limitations of Cassandra While there are several advantages to using Cassandra, there are also limitations that make Cassandra unsuitable as a general-purpose database. For example, because Cassandra doesn’t have built-in aggregation functionality, it does not group data by sum, min, or max. You have to pre-compute and store any aggregations. In addition, you can't join tables in Cassandra. Instead, you have to de-normalize data before storing it in the database. Finally, Cassandra bases search on keys and indexes only. It does not support additional search clauses, additional conditions, or sorting on non-key fields.

The acquisition served to increase the Rackspace data center footprint across the globe. In some regions, including Hong Kong, this has resulted in multiple locations within a small geographical area. Rackspace leaders have carried out a review to identify which data centers can offer the most reliability, high availability, and efficiency while offering our customers access to the full range of Rackspace products and services. To enable long-term growth within the region, Rackspace is currently building a new Singapore data center, SIN3, based on Rackspace standards. Find more information on the specification of our data centers on our data center page . After reviewing our global data center footprint and considering the lease for SIN2 that comes to an end in 2021, Rackspace decided to reduce our footprint in Singapore and close the SIN2 facility. This document relates specifically to only colocation customers. If you are a customer of managed or shared infrastructure, request a copy of the SIN2 Managed Customer FAQ . When is the closure expected to take place? We ask all colocation customers in SIN2 to vacate SIN2 by 31st July 2021 How do I prepare for the relocation? Rackspace has extensive experience and success in data-center migrations. The dedicated migration team has been responsible for multiple large-scale data center consolidation and closure exercises for both Rackspace and legacy Datapipe data centers. The migration team can provide guidance and advice on all aspects of the move. For those customers who might not have any experience of a cabinet migration, we created a Colocation Migration Guide based on the experience of the migration team. If you think this would be useful for you, reach out to your service delivery manager or account manager to request a copy of the guide. What support does Rackspace provide for the move? Rackspace allocates space and power in the new location with all other services contracted through Rackspace. Where Rackspace provides the cabinets, we can stand up new cabinets in advance of your move date if required. Additionally, if requested, we can carry out a physical audit of your environment and take responsibility for the physical move in one of two ways. We can decant the cabinet in SIN2 and transport the devices to SIN3, where we deploy the devices into new cabinets. Alternately, we can investigate the delivery manager or account manager to request a copy of the guide. What support does Rackspace provide for the move?

This document outlines how customers can procure and manage licenses for: Operating Systems: Windows Server, Linux (various distributions) Databases: Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle DB Other Licensing Services: VMware, bundled licensing Licensing via Image Deployment (OS & DB) When deploying a virtual machine (VM) from the Rackspace-provided image library, the image name will clearly indicate the included software. For example: Windows Server 2022 + SQL Server 2022 Enterprise Linux CentOS 7 Windows Server 2019 (No SQL) See an example here: Note: For an exhaustive list of image options please refer to the content library within your platform of choice. For more information on how to deploy an image on your specific platform please navigate to that platform’s section within this page. ✅ What This Means for You: Automatic License Billing: By selecting and deploying an image with bundled software, you are accepting associated license charges for that software. No Separate Procurement Required: No manual license registration or request is needed. Rackspace will add the charge automatically to your monthly invoice. Licensing Audit Support: These images ensure compliance with Microsoft and Oracle licensing models. Note: If you want to check what a particular deployed VM is consuming in terms of 3rd party licenses you can go to the ‘Resources’ UI and click the VM to get next level of detail as seen here: Host-Based Licensing (Optional) Rackspace also supports host-based licensing , allowing licenses to be pooled and tied to the physical host instead of each VM. 🔒 Important Requirements: Pre-enrollment is required via contract or addendum. Must be explicitly included in your host sale agreement or added later by contacting your Rackspace Account Executive . Automation will detect valid host-based licensing and suppress per-VM license billing accordingly. If host-based licensing is not detected , per-VM license charges will apply by default.

Key concepts Bot - An autonomous program on a network that can interact with computer systems or users, imitating or replacing a human user's behavior, performing repetitive tasks much faster than human users could. Good bots - Bots which are useful to businesses that they interact with, such as search engine bots like Googlebot or Bingbot, or bots that operate on social media platforms like Facebook Bot. Bad bots - Bots which are designed to perform malicious actions, ultimately hurting businesses, such as credential stuffing bots, third-party scraping bots, spambots, and sneaker bots. Bot management - Blocking undesired or malicious Internet bot traffic while still allowing useful bots to access web properties by detecting bot activity, discerning between desirable and undesirable bot behavior, and identifying the sources of the unwanted activity. Web Application Firewall (WAF) - A security system that monitors and controls network traffic based on a set of security rules. The following image shows the difference between good and bad bots: The module All bot detection mechanisms are applied on every request in real time during the request processing stage in the bot management module that runs on every machine at Cloudflare's edge locations. When a request comes in, we extract and transform the required request attributes and feed them to our detection mechanisms. Detection Mechanisms The Cloudflare Bot Management platform currently uses five complementary detection mechanisms, producing their own scores, which we combine to form the single score going to the firewall. Most of the detection mechanisms are applied on every request, while some are enabled on a per-customer basis to better fit their needs. Overall globally, more than a third of the Internet traffic visible to Cloudflare is coming from bad bots, while Bot Management customers have the ratio of bad bots even higher at approximately 43%. Summary Cloudflare has the unique ability to collect data from trillions of requests flowing through its network every week. With this data, Cloudflare can identify likely bot activity with machine learning, heuristics, behavioral analysis, and other detection mechanisms. Cloudflare Bot Management integrates seamlessly with other Cloudflare products, such as WAF and Workers.

Managed Public OpenStack Cloud has the following service levels: Managed Infrastructure : Rackspace manages the data center, infrastructure, and virtualization layers. Managed Operations : Rackspace manages the data center, infrastructure, virtualization layers, operating system, database layer, and web server. What is the service-level pricing model? The Managed Cloud pricing model provides greater transparency of your total cloud expense by separating infrastructure and support costs. The infrastructure rate depends on the number of gigabytes (GB) of random-access memory (RAM) used during the billing cycle, not on the server types. This way, many small servers are the same price as fewer larger servers. The support cost, or Service Level Rate, is determined by the total Compute power used. The Service Level Rate covers the maintenance and support of all your cloud Compute products (such as servers) and depends on your service level. OnMetal servers have a flat hourly rate independent of RAM. If you do not meet the minimum Service Level Rate during your billing cycle, we assess the difference to your account. Your service level and support cover all products, but we assess the Service Level Rate against only Compute products. Storage services, such as Cloud Files and Cloud Block Storage, have no Service Level Rates associated with them. Can new customers choose other service levels for Managed OpenStack Public Cloud? No, new customers can choose Managed Infrastructure or Managed Operations. Customers with an older service level, such as the infrastructure service level, can stay on that level or move to one of the new levels. Customers who upgrade to a new service level can't return to the old level. What happens with customers who are on the old Infrastructure service level? Customers who have the infrastructure service level keep their current pricing plan and continue to receive the same support. Is Rackspace improving the support experience? Yes, we are always looking at ways to improve our support. What do I get from Rackspace support?

Last year, as part of our 2025 State of Cloud Report , we conducted a global survey of 1,420 IT professionals. The results quickly revealed that a hybrid cloud model is fast becoming the linchpin of successful cloud operations. And it makes sense, as the hybrid model allows for optimal workload placement. When workloads run in the right cloud model, businesses can improve flexibility, scalability, cost efficiency and overall performance. Hybrid cloud enables organizations to strategically distribute workloads across private and public clouds, using private clouds to support security-sensitive or compliance-driven tasks, while public cloud handles less critical applications. It’s clear that for most organizations, workload optimization requires a mix of private and public clouds. Below are some of the findings from our research that support this perspective: Hybrid cloud is seen as a connector: Hybrid cloud allows for the integration of public, private and edge environments. It allows businesses to leverage the scalability and flexibility of public cloud while maintaining the security and control of private cloud. Hybrid cloud brings increased efficiency: 82% of IT decision-makers using a hybrid strategy are satisfied with its efficiency — higher than any other cloud model. Hybrid allows for expansion: 22% of respondents plan to expand hybrid cloud capabilities in the next 12-24 months, reflecting its growing importance. Hybrid cloud bridges future and past: Hybrid cloud helps bridge legacy systems and modern cloud initiatives, with 92% of workloads already on some cloud platform and only 8% remaining on-premises. Hybrid cloud is flexible and resilient: Hybrid cloud strategies are favored for their ability to provide flexibility, agility, and a unified approach to managing diverse workloads, making them indispensable in modern IT environments. Hybrid offers decision-makers using a hybrid strategy are satisfied with its efficiency — higher than any other cloud model.

AI is redefining the future of BFSI The true power of AI lies in its ability to transform operations today while guiding organizations toward a continuously adaptive future. Across the banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) industries, leaders are already taking decisive steps to modernize their systems, build resiliency and embrace innovation. What we’re also quickly learning is that AI can significantly accelerate these efforts, empowering institutions to stay ahead of evolving customer expectations and market demands by creating flexible, future-ready operations that confidently respond to emerging opportunities. Insights from the Impact of AI on the BFSI Industry Flash Report from Rackspace Technology® highlights 12 compelling findings that reveal how BFSI leaders are leveraging AI responsibly and effectively. Among these, I believe three areas stand out as critical to success: product development, autonomous tooling and operational resiliency. These areas not only showcase the transformative power of AI but also its role in building secure, sustainable, and customer-centric organizations. Let’s explore how these priorities are shaping the industry’s transformation. Developing personalized products with AI-driven insights AI is revolutionizing product development in the BFSI industry by helping institutions better understand and respond to customer demands. I Industry Flash Report from Rackspace Technology® highlights 12 compelling findings that reveal how BFSI leaders are leveraging AI responsibly and effectively. Among these, I believe three areas stand out as critical to success: product development, autonomous tooling and operational resiliency. These areas not only showcase the transformative power of AI but also its role in building secure, sustainable, and customer-centric organizations. Let’s explore how these priorities are shaping the industry’s transformation. Developing personalized products with AI-driven insights AI is revolutionizing product development in the BFSI industry by helping institutions better understand and respond to customer demands. According to the 2024 Global AI Report , product development and customer experience are top priorities shaping both IT and business strategies in BFSI organizations. This focus reflects an increased commitment to using AI where it can have the most impact. BFSI respondents reported a higher emphasis on product development (15%) compared to the 13% surveyed average. At the core of this transformation is AI’s ability to analyze vast amounts of customer data quickly and accurately. Using advanced analytics, financial institutions can extract actionable insights, such as identifying customers’ propensity to purchase specific products. For instance, AI-driven tools analyze historical data and segment customers based on demographic, geographic and psychographic profiles. This approach helps organizations predict trends and design products that meet evolving customer preferences with greater precision than traditional methods. A powerful example of AI’s impact can be found in customer segmentation. By identifying clusters of customers who share similar attributes and behaviors, institutions can infer which segments are likely to adopt new solutions. For example, a financial institution might identify a segment of younger customers who are inclined toward digital-first banking solutions and develop tailored offerings to meet their needs. Generative AI also holds promise in augmenting these efforts by creating innovative product concepts or refining marketing strategies, but it complements rather than replaces traditional analytics. The real value lies in combining predictive analytics with segmentation to deliver personalized, data-driven products that resonate with customers. Institutions that effectively use AI for product development aren’t just meeting current demands — they’re positioning themselves to anticipate future needs and maintain a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving market. Driving efficiency and security with autonomous tooling Autonomous tooling refers to software tools that operate independently, using AI to analyze data and make decisions with minimal human intervention. For BFSI organizations, these tools are transformative, enabling them to achieve key outcomes like enhanced security, improved efficiency and reduced costs. than replaces traditional analytics.

Driving efficiency and security with autonomous tooling Autonomous tooling refers to software tools that operate independently, using AI to analyze data and make decisions with minimal human intervention. For BFSI organizations, these tools are transformative, enabling them to achieve key outcomes like enhanced security, improved efficiency and reduced costs. For example, autonomous agents used in intrusion detection systems automate monitoring, reducing the need for human oversight while increasing response accuracy. This automation not only streamlines operations but also frees up resources for higher-value tasks. Institutions leveraging autonomous tooling are finding significant cost savings by reducing redundancies in their IT and operational processes. Realizing the full potential of autonomous tooling, however, requires a forward-looking approach to IT architecture. Many BFSI organizations still rely on legacy systems that are unable to support the scale and complexity of AI-driven tools. Too often, infrastructure modernization efforts are undertaken with only current needs in mind, leaving systems obsolete by the time they are deployed. To avoid this, organizations must design their architecture with a future-oriented perspective. The question isn’t just about addressing today’s needs but also about planning for infrastructure that can accommodate emerging AI capabilities and innovations. This proactive approach to architecture planning is essential for unlocking the true potential of autonomous tooling. Building resiliency to strengthen operations Operational resiliency is critical for BFSI organizations as they navigate an increasingly complex and dynamic environment, where disruptions can threaten sensitive operations and customer trust. AI has become a pivotal tool for enhancing resiliency by supporting key functions such as cybersecurity, intrusion recovery, disaster recovery, regulatory compliance, data stewardship and business continuity. AI-driven solutions bolster resiliency by automating monitoring and detection processes. For example, autonomous agents can identify anomalies and flag potential intrusions, reducing reliance on manual oversight and accelerating response times. This automation not only strengthens security but also improves efficiency by reallocating human resources to higher-value tasks. Additionally, AI enables predictive analytics that helps organizations anticipate disruptions and prepare accordingly, further reducing downtime and minimizing risks. Resiliency isn’t just about responding to threats; it’s also about embedding proactive measures into IT and cybersecurity, intrusion recovery, disaster recovery, regulatory compliance, data stewardship and business continuity.

Additionally, AI enables predictive analytics that helps organizations anticipate disruptions and prepare accordingly, further reducing downtime and minimizing risks. Resiliency isn’t just about responding to threats; it’s also about embedding proactive measures into IT and operational frameworks. By leveraging AI, BFSI organizations can enhance their ability to protect sensitive data, ensure regulatory compliance and mitigate risks associated with data breaches. However, it’s essential to address the vulnerabilities that come with AI adoption. While AI strengthens security, it also exposes organizations to new risks, such as potential misuse by bad actors. Mid-tier and smaller institutions, in particular, must invest in robust AI-driven security measures to protect themselves against these threats. Operational resiliency, supported by AI, isn’t so much of a competitive advantage as it is a necessity. Institutions that prioritize resiliency not only safeguard their operations but also position themselves for long-term growth and sustainability. Take a deeper dive into the application of AI to BFSI Overall, the 2024 Rackspace Technology Global AI Report found that industry leaders are motivated to adopt AI quickly and responsibly. AI has the potential to drive product development and innovation, expand autonomous tooling and strengthen operational resiliency — paving the way for more secure, sustainable and profitable organizations.

Prerequisites Applies to: Administrator and User Difficulty: Easy Tools required: Webmail Access Suspicious email is a gray area between legitimate email and spam. Webmail employs Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) indicators to determine if an email is suspicious. There are several other items you can see that indicate if an email is legitimate. These indicators are simple but are extremely valuable in determining the validity of a message. Messages that are deemed suspicious show a yellow warning banner in Webmail’s preview pane. The intent of this banner is to encourage you to confirm the legitimacy of the sender and the contents of the message before clicking on any links, downloading any attachments, or replying. Webmail clearly shows the display name and email address of the sender. Comparing the display name to the email address is a simple way to check for display name spoofing. Display name spoofing is when bad guys place a name that you recognize in the From address, such as the name of your manager, but the associated email address is not for that person. For example, Webmail shows you \"From: John Doe < [email protected] >\". Assuming John Doe is your manager’s name, < [email protected] > is definitely not your manager’s email address. Webmail shows you if the domain of the sender does not match the domain used to send the message. The domain that sent the message is represented by the 'sent from' added to the sender's address. In some cases, this situation is normal for sending services that are used for marketing and sales campaigns, newsletters, and similar email distributions. However, it can also be an indication of spoofing. Building on the previous example, if the same bad guy compromised a Gmail mailbox and is sending email pretending to be your manager, it appears in Webmail as \"From: John Doe < [email protected] > sent from gmail.com\". Assuming your manager never uses Gmail for work purposes, this is a clear indicator that the message is suspicious. To report suspicious email as spam, you can drag the message to the Spam folder, or you can click Report Spam in the More menu. Remember, it is always a best to verify any request for personal information or money that is received via email.

Migrations of mailboxes that are between 350 MB and 1.5 GB typically take up to an hour, and you can migrate groups of mailboxes overnight. The following sections provide more detail about the factors that can affect how long a migration can take to complete. Simultaneous mailbox migrations The migration tool that Rackspace Technology® uses, MigrationWiz , has reached speeds of over 1.5 GB per hour per mailbox when connecting to high availability infrastructures. Migrating more mailboxes at the same time allows parallel processing and reduces the duration of your migration. MigrationWiz can migrate hundreds of thousands of mailboxes simultaneously at no additional cost to you. If you migrate all of your mailboxes at the same time, the migration duration is the time it takes to migrate the largest mailbox. Network speed How fast are the source and destination servers connected to the Internet? MigrationWiz is only as fast as the slowest link. MigrationWiz can work across even the slowest links, connecting to networks that range from T1 speed to networks that host multiple gigabit connections. Network latency The network latency depends on the quality of the connection between the source and destination servers. Number of mailbox items Mailboxes with more email messages take longer to migrate. For example, if two mailboxes are the same size but have a different number of items, the mailbox with fewer items migrates faster than the mailbox with more items. The servers talk to each other to introduce each message, so multiple messages have more overhead from network chatter than a single large message. MigrationWiz greatly reduces network chatter. It has moved over a thousand items in less than a minute in some cases. Mailbox size Although the volume of data in a mailbox can affect a migration, the number of items in a mailbox has a much greater impact on the duration of a migration. Mailbox errors Errors can occur for many reasons, including corrupt items and network outages. MigrationWiz contains automated self-healing technology that can automatically manage errors in most cases. Throttling If the source or destination system throttles the amount of data the system can read or write, the migration might not than a single large message.

Escalate additional needs (such as hardware replacement, SEAP-related activities, and so on) as necessary. Data rescue If a user deletes important data, Rackspace can restore the database by using the backup files to an earlier time on another server to recover that data. Clients require redundant database hardware to benefit from this service.

However, if your production system is down or you’re experiencing a highly urgent and severely disruptive issue, call us directly after you submit a ticket. This chapter contains the following sections: Who can contact the RAS team Submitting tickets Service levels Spheres of Support Who can contact the RAS team While you might work with internal and external resources such as system integrator, content teams, and other agencies, our contract is with you. All requests (for production systems or otherwise) must come from a member of your team or one of your approved contacts so we can ensure that any requested actions are in line with the details of the established support agreement. To speed communication and issues resolution, you can add your systems integrator or partners as approved contacts. It’s our preference to have regular communications with your entire decision-making team so that we can better understand critical road-mapping discussions for activities such as expansion, upgrades, and migrations. To request the addition of a system integrator or partner as a contact, open a ticket providing their information and any details on when to contact them (for example, contact them if an off-hours outage requiring a custom code fix occurs). Lastly, if you have any general billing or account-related questions, your Account Manager or CSM can assist you. Open a ticket and state that you have an Account Management question. Submitting Tickets You can submit RAS Digital Experience support requests at any time by creating a ticket in the Rackspace Customer Portal or by phone. To create a support ticket or view existing tickets, log in to the Rackspace Customer Portal and then click Tickets in the top navigation bar. The Rackspace automated systems also create tickets for events on your account that require either your attention or a Rackspace employee’s attention. You can also call the 24x7x365 Support team at any time. Any actionable information needs to reside in a ticket because this is the Rackspace system of record to ensure that we fully document any issues or requests from identification to resolution. An example of an action might be as simple as viewing a particular log file for data, such as resolving an application issue, or as complex as managing an application code release or upgrade. The ticket provides the immediate value of centralized information and communication while meeting the long-term needs of cross-referencing events for correlation or viewing your attention or a Rackspace employee’s attention.

The ticket provides the immediate value of centralized information and communication while meeting the long-term needs of cross-referencing events for correlation or viewing historical activity or decisions that impact the application. Keep the following guidelines in mind regarding ticket communication: RAS Digital teams recognize that many enterprises social media and communication tools (such as email, Slack, Yammer, and instant messaging) offer powerful collaboration functionality and play a role in the timely communication of critical information related to an issue, but they are not systems of record, nor are they actively monitored. Using these tools for critical communication leads to the risk of inaction or missed issues. If you have questions or require Rackspace assistance, open a ticket in the Rackspace Customer Portal. Using tickets ensures that communication does not get lost in email or isolated to a single individual. Instead, it’s rather supported by the team for timely resolution. If your production system is down or you are experiencing a highly urgent and severely disruptive issue, call us directly after you submit a ticket. There might be instances in which you and Rackspace need to speak instead of writing. If a meeting is required, the Rackspace Customer Success Manager schedules that meeting. Depending on the meeting outcome, we might generate tickets to track items for a timely resolution. Ongoing roadmap discussions are scheduled with you by the Rackspace Account Manager or CSM at a regular cadence to discuss any open items and future plans for your Digital Application environment. You must open a ticket for any items that require action. The Rackspace application monitoring system generates tickets if certain thresholds are met or issues are discovered. There might be instances in which Rackspace proactively discovers issues and opportunities and brings them to your attention, such as an issue generated by a code deployment made by your team. The vast majority of issues that Rackspace discovers relates to deployed code or configuration changes. If you don’t respond to a ticket that requires immediate input, such as a site down, Rackspace might contact you by using the information on file.

Refer to the Rackspace Email to Open-Xchange Migration FAQ Split domain routing (SDR) allows you to have a single domain's mailboxes distributed between our system and an external system, working together as if they were in one environment. You use this primarily when you are migrating a large number of mailboxes over to our system from another server over an extended period of time. You can move mailboxes in batches to make the move more manageable for administrators and to make the transition almost seamless for the users. Though it is not common, you can also use SDR when you need to maintain some mailboxes on an existing system for an extended period of time or permanently. If SDR is a permanent feature of your setup, they can point to either your external mail server or us. You might want to point your MX records to Rackspace because then all your messages get the benefit of our spam and anti-virus filtering instead of just the Rackspace-hosted mailboxes. Setting up SDR There are two parts to setting up SDR, and they relate to enabling our system and the external system to have two-way communication. If you are using SDR as part of a migration, you should keep your MX records for the domain pointing to your existing server (described as your external mail server in this documentation). After the migration completes, you can switch them to the Rackspace MX records listed here: Set up DNS records for Cloud Office email and Skype for Business . Enabling SDR through the Cloud Office Control Panel When you enable SDR, our environment forwards to your external server any messages addressed to recipients on your domain that do not exist in our system. To enable it, you need the hostname of your external mail server (usually one of the MX records that point to your external system) and a valid email address within the designated domain hosted on that external mail server. We use this address only to validate the server. You must also open port 25 on the external mail server so that our system can connect to it. Log in to the Cloud Office Control Panel .

Configuring SDR from your own external server to Rackspace This type of functionality has several names, including non-authoritative mail delivery or message routing for a shared address space . The idea is to set up the external server so that if it cannot deliver a message locally, the server forwards to another system (Rackspace). Different mail systems have their own procedures for configuring this. The following Microsoft articles show how to accomplish this: Exchange Server 2007 Exchange Server 2010 Subdomain message routing We suggest that you use subdomain message routing to route messages from your external server back to Rackspace. Subdomain routing uses contacts (or forwards) set up on your external system to route the messages to a subdomain email address. You should add this same subdomain as a domain alias on our system in order for this to work. Make sure you have the following elements in place: A subdomain created with your DNS host pointing to Rackspace MX records: For example, rackspace.example.com with its own set of MX records pointing to mx1.emailsrvr.com . Contacts (aliases) created on the external system for each mailbox hosted by Rackspace. Your contact must forward the yourdomain.com address to the rackspace.example.com address. For example, [email protected] (on your external server) should have a forward set to [email protected] . Your server then sees the @rackspace.example.com address and query DNS, which resolves back to mx1.emailsrvr.com and delivers to the user in the Rackspace environment. Ensure that you have requested your rackspace.example.com subdomain as a domain alias . To do this, contact Support (chat, phone call, or open a ticket). If Rackspace is your DNS host, enter this subdomain name in the Mail Records (MX) section of the DNS Settings page in the Control Panel. Note: For a migration, when changing the MX records, ensure that you are changing them for the new subdomain (such as, .example.com address and query DNS, which resolves back to mx1.emailsrvr.com and delivers to the user in the Rackspace environment. Ensure that you have requested your rackspace.example.com subdomain as a domain alias . To do this, contact Support (chat, phone call, or open a ticket). If Rackspace is your DNS host, enter this subdomain name in the Mail Records (MX) section of the DNS Settings page in the Control Panel. Note: For a migration, when changing the MX records, ensure that you are changing them for the new subdomain (such as, rackspace.example.com ) and not the primary domain. After all mailboxes are on our system, you should change the MX records for the primary domain.

If you prefer a video tutorial, see Rackspace Email - DMARC / DKIM: What It Is & How to Setup . DMARC enforces SPF and DKIM . DMARC is useful only if you have already set up SPF and DKIM records. Before creating your DMARC policy, you must perform the following tasks: Create an SPF record policy Create a DKIM record Create a DMARC record policy. Considerations for DMARC To set up DMARC the way that works best for your needs, answer these questions: How do you want questionable mail handled? Decide whether you want the system to reject a questionable email outright or classify it as a soft fail , which means that the system further scrutinizes the email or sends it to spam. Who should receive DMARC reports? When the receiving host processes mail that comes from the domain, the host generates reports and sends them to the address specified in the DMARC policy. Parts of a DMARC policy The policy definition is the following: dmarc : Identifies the TXT record as a DMARC policy. v=DMARC1 : Indicates the version of DMARC used. p=quarantine : Determines the policy action. none : Do nothing or report only. quarantine : Treat the mail as spam. reject : Refuse mail that fails DKIM and SPF. none : Do nothing or report only. quarantine : Treat the mail as spam. reject : Refuse mail that fails DKIM and SPF. rua= : Identifies the destination for the aggregate reports. p Parts of a DMARC policy The policy definition is the following: dmarc : Identifies the TXT record as a DMARC policy. v=DMARC1 : Indicates the version of DMARC used. p=quarantine : Determines the policy action. none : Do nothing or report only. quarantine : Treat the mail as spam. reject : Refuse mail that fails DKIM and SPF. none : Do nothing or report only. quarantine : Treat the mail as spam. reject : Refuse mail that fails DKIM and SPF. rua= : Identifies the destination for the aggregate reports. pct=100 Specifies how much traffic to subject to policy validation. Create a DMARC policy in your DNS settings Note: If Rackspace does not host your DNS, you need access to your DNS provider to add the DMARC policy. If you do not know who hosts your DNS, see Find DNS host . To add your DMARC policy as a TXT record in the Control Panel, follow these steps: Log in to the Cloud Office Control Panel. Log in to the Cloud Office Control Panel. In the Domains section of the home page, click the DNS settings link. In the Domains section of the home page, click the DNS settings link. On the DNS Settings page, click the domain for which you want to add this record. On the DNS Settings page, click the domain for which you want to add this record. Under the Advanced Settings section, select DNS records . Under the Advanced Settings section, select DNS records . Under Hosting Records , click Add Additional Record . Under Hosting Records , click Add Additional Record . Select TXT Record for the record type, and enter the following values, replacing the email address example with your chosen reporting address: Type : TXT Hostname : _dmarc Destination : v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto: [email protected] Priority : NA TTL : 3600 seconds or lowest allowed Select TXT Record for the record type, and enter the following values, replacing the email address example with your chosen reporting address: Type : TXT Hostname : _dmarc Destination : v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto: [email protected] Priority : NA TTL : 3600 seconds or lowest allowed Click Add Record . Click Add Record . Your new settings take 24 to 48 hours to propagate. For more information on propagation, see DNS propagation . Select an aggregator Your DM none; rua=mailto: [email protected] Priority : NA TTL : 3600 seconds or lowest allowed Select TXT Record for the record type, and enter the following values, replacing the email address example with your chosen reporting address: Type : TXT Hostname : _dmarc Destination : v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto: [email protected] Priority : NA TTL : 3600 seconds or lowest allowed Click Add Record . Click Add Record . Your new settings take 24 to 48 hours to propagate. For more information on propagation, see DNS propagation . Select an aggregator Your DMARC policy is more valuable when you use an aggregator to help filter the content of the returned reports. Without an aggregator, the reports are in an XML format and are virtually unreadable. An aggregator formats this information and sends out weekly reports to the email address specified. The weekly report contains the sending source (domain or IP address) and information about whether the message passed or failed SPF and DKIM. This information enables you to monitor your domain activity and helps to prevent spoofing and domain abuse.

In many cases, you can't migrate this data with our migration tool when it does not exist on your source mail server. This article walks you through performing a manual migration of POP data by using Outlook® to a Rackspace Email account via IMAP. You accomplish this task by adding your new Rackspace Email IMAP account to the same profile that your POP account is on. This change enables you to move all of the locally stored email messages to your new Rackspace Email account. To learn more about the differences between POP and IMAP, see IMAP and POP mail protocol comparison . Prerequisites Before performing the steps, ensure that you have already created mailboxes on the Rackspace environment and updated the MX records so that email routes correctly to Rackspace.

Our customer Rena Ware International, Inc is a direct selling company specializing in the global distribution of high-quality cookware, kitchenware, water filtration systems and other household products. Rena Ware emphasizes the importance of healthy cooking and living and promotes its products as a means to achieve a balanced lifestyle. The company was founded in 1941 by Fred Zylstra and is based in Bellevue, Washington, U.S. The obstacles they faced After years of successful global expansion and growth, Rena Ware today finds itself operating in seven regional markets: Costa Rica, Columbia, Peru, El Salvador, Thailand and North America. Like just about every company, the global COVID-19 pandemic put pressure on Rena Ware’s operations. The pressures brought about by regional differences in licensing and operational requirements were magnified by the pandemic. The impacts of communication and integration challenges also began to be felt. So, when Rena Ware emerged from the global pandemic, its leadership was determined to transform and optimize the operations at the very foundation of its business. “At some point after the pandemic, we realized that we needed to transform our process across the board,” explained Juan David Gutierrez Delgado, Global IT Director at Rena Ware. “When I arrived at the company, my main goal was to increase collaboration and integration across all markets by streamlining communication and automating processes. That’s when I decided that Microsoft 365 would be the best fit.” “I think this project was successful because we didn’t approach this as a one-time interaction. We took the approach of ‘let’s become the extension of your team.’ That was our mantra. I feel like that positively influenced the way we carried out the project.” How we helped During the RFP phase, Rena Ware was attracted to Rackspace Technology due to the direct support offered and the value added by the qualifications of the team. “I had a very controlled budget,” recalled Gutierrez “I was very clear from the beginning and very honest, and I liked that Rackspace understood that and gave me access to the best resources possible, aligned to my strategy and the priorities in the budget that I had.” Under pressure to complete the project quickly, Gutierrez leaned heavily on the Rackspace our mantra.

Prior to engaging with Rackspace, Gutierrez was preparing to accommodate a “big-bang” approach with Microsoft 365 adoption, in which every region would cut over simultaneously to the new system. The downside to this approach is the potential for 24 to 48 hours of disruption. After conducting its thorough initial assessment, Rackspace determined that the risk of downtime could be minimized with a different approach. “Because Rena Ware had a very limited IT staff across seven different regions, each within different time zones, and all trying to get moved over at one time, we proposed a regional phased approach, instead,” recalled Nora Hernandez, Migration Manager at Rackspace Technology. Rackspace recommended splitting the project up by region for a more graceful cutover process that was less disruptive, while being transparent that this would increase the cost of the project. “I think that really helped establish a good rapport,” said Hernandez. “We were upfront with Rena Ware from the very beginning, and we let them know all the pros and cons for them to make the decision they needed to make.” What we achieved together Rackspace Technology was able to seamlessly cutover each region, often during a lunch break, and without employees noticing. The migration went so smoothly that Gutierrez was still able to take planned time off, maintaining his work/life balance while Rackspace handled the migration to Office 365. The results of the migration to Office 365 have been phenomenal. On top of a 40% reduction in monthly costs, Gutierrez has witnessed a dramatic expansion in the storage capacity of his SharePoint infrastructure. And the use of Microsoft Teams for project management has increased the quality and ease of communication across all regions. “This outcome aligns perfectly with our initial objective of establishing a user-friendly and reliable email and collaboration platform,” said Gutierrez. “Our ability to collaborate .

Our collaboration potential is now huge compared to where we were one year ago. In fact, I haven’t even closed out the project yet as I still want to work with Rackspace Technology on other initiatives.” About Rackspace Technology Rackspace Technology is a leading end-to-end hybrid cloud and AI solutions company.

Answer: No. This service transition will not affect the terms of your existing contract. Question: Can I still request a restore from the old backups after backups are transitioned to Rackspace Data Protection? Answer: Yes. All backups will still be retained through their original retention settings. Restores from the legacy product will remain possible until that data ages off. Question: Will there be overlap with the backup products? Answer: Both products will not run concurrently. Legacy Managed Backups will be disabled once Rackspace Data Protection begins. The Commvault agent will remain installed on servers after they have been cutover to Rackspace Data Protection to facilitate restores of legacy data. Question: Will this service transition impact my servers? Answer: We do not anticipate the service transition to have a negative impact on servers. Software can be installed without the need for a reboot. Generally, we expect Rackspace Data Protection powered by Cohesity to have a positive effect on server resource utilization. Incremental forever technology means that there is no need to run a true full each week, which cuts down runtime and resources significantly. Question: Will my backup schedule change? Answer: Backups will run at the same cadence. There may be slight adjustments to backup timing, of less than a few hours, but generally the backup policies will be at parity when migrated to Rackspace Data Protection. Question: Are backups encrypted with Rackspace Data Protection? Answer: Rackspace Data Protection encrypts data in flight and at rest. There is no additional charge for encryption, as it is an inherent part of Rackspace Data Protection.

Prerequisite For an introduction to relational databases and NoSQL databases, see Types of databases . Features of relational databases and NoSQL databases The following table provides a high-level comparison of the characteristics of relational and NoSQL databases: The following image visualizes the structures of various types of databases, as well as the data complexity that they accommodate by design: The following table compares the characteristics of relational databases and NoSQL graph databases: Questions to ask before choosing a NoSQL database If you are evaluating whether a NoSQL database is appropriate for your production environment, you should address the following technical, business, and deployment considerations. Technical Considerations Before deciding to use a NoSQL database, ask the following technical questions: Can the database serve as the primary data source for the online application? Does the database have features that prevent the loss of critical data? Are writes durable in nature by default so that the data is safe? Is the database fault-tolerant, and is it capable of providing continuous availability? Can the database easily replicate data located in the same data center, across multiple data centers, and across different cloud availability zones? Does the database offer read/write anywhere capabilities? (Can the system write to and read from any node in the cluster?) Does the database provide a robust set of security features? Does the database support backup and recovery procedures that are easy to create and manage? Does the database require special caching layers? Is the database capable of managing big data and delivering high performance regardless of data size? Does the database offer linear scalability for adding new nodes? Can new nodes be added and removed online without impacting your business? Does the database support key platforms and developer languages? Does the database provide a query language that is similar to SQL? Can the database run on commodity hardware with no special requirements? Is the database easy to implement and maintain for large deployments? Does the database offer data compression that results in significant storage savings? Is it easy to run analytic operations on the database? Can the database easily interface with and support modern data warehouses or data lakes that use Hadoop? Is it easy to carry out search operations and functions directly on the NoSQL database? Can the database isolate the online, analytic, and search workloads within a single application? Does the database have solid command-line and developer languages? Does the database provide a query language that is similar to SQL? Can the database run on commodity hardware with no special requirements? Is the database easy to implement and maintain for large deployments? Does the database offer data compression that results in significant storage savings? Is it easy to run analytic operations on the database? Can the database easily interface with and support modern data warehouses or data lakes that use Hadoop? Is it easy to carry out search operations and functions directly on the NoSQL database? Can the database isolate the online, analytic, and search workloads within a single application? Does the database have solid command-line and visual tools for development, administration, and performance management? Business Considerations The following list presents business-related questions that you should ask before deciding to use a NoSQL database: Does a commercial entity back the database? If so, does the commercial entity provide 24x7 enterprise-level support and services? Does the database have professional online documentation? Does the database have customers across a wide range of industries that use the product in critical production environments? Does the database have an attractive pricing structure? If the database is open source, does it have a thriving open-source community? Deployment Considerations You can use a NoSQL database as part of a new application, to augment an existing application, or to fully replace an application. Before choosing a database, consider your deployment needs. Many organizations begin using NoSQL on a new application. This approach enables you to avoid rewriting applications, migrating data, and performing related tasks. Some organizations choose to augment an existing system by adding a NoSQL component. This often happens with applications that have outgrown a relational database due to scale problems, the need for better availability, or other issues. Parts of the existing system continue to use the existing RDBMS, while the developers modify other application components to use the NoSQL database. If a system is too costly or is breaking due to increased user concurrency, data velocity, or data volume from cloud applications, you can replace it fully with a NoSQL database. Guidelines for deciding between a relational database and a NoSQL database The following questions can help you determine whether a relational database or a NoSQL database is best for your application. Do you need a flexible data model that includes a combination of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data? Are complex JOIN operations overwhelming your RDBMS and slowing response times? Do you care more about the value derived from the relationships between tables than the tables themselves? a system is too costly or is breaking due to increased user concurrency, data velocity, or data volume from cloud applications, you can replace it fully with a NoSQL database.

Do you need a flexible data model that includes a combination of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data? Are complex JOIN operations overwhelming your RDBMS and slowing response times? Do you care more about the value derived from the relationships between tables than the tables themselves? Do you need continuous availability with redundancy in both data and function across one or more locations, rather than simple failover for the database? Do you need a database that runs in multiple data centers and cloud availability zones? Do you need to handle high-velocity data originating from sensors, mobile devices, and similar sources? If so, do you need to handle this data with extreme write speed and low-latency query speed? Do you need to go beyond single-machine limits for scale-up? Does your system require a scale-out architecture that makes it easy to add more processing power and storage capacity? Do you need to run different workloads (such as online, analytics, and search) on the same data without manually loading it onto separate systems or machines? Do you need to manage a widely distributed system with minimal staff? Get Support For more information about relational databases and NoSQL databases, see the Managed Operations FAQ .

Cloudflare doesn't require additional hardware, software, or changes to your code. The following graphic illustrates how Cloudflare works to protect your site against malicious traffic: Security Cloudflare stops malicious traffic before it reaches your origin web server. Cloudflare analyzes potential threats in visitor requests based on several characteristics: Visitor's IP address Requested resources Requested payload and frequency Customer-defined firewall rules A Domain Name Service (DNS) lookup or ping of a proxied Cloudflare subdomain returns the Cloudflare IP addresses. Cloudflare masks your origin IP address for proxied (orange-clouded) DNS records so attackers cannot bypass Cloudflare and directly attack your origin web server. Performance Cloudflare optimizes the delivery of website resources for your visitors. Cloudflare's data centers server your website's static resources and ask your origin web server for dynamic content. Cloudflare's global network provides a faster route from your site visitors to our data centers than would be available to a visitor directly requesting your site. Even with Cloudflare between your website and your visitors, resource requests arrive at your visitor sooner. Reliability Cloudflare's globally-distributed anycast network routes visitor requests to the nearest Cloudflare data center. Cloudflare-distributed DNS responds to website visitors with Cloudflare IP addresses for traffic that you proxy to Cloudflare. This distribution also provides security by hiding the specific IP address of your origin web server. Cloudflare-proxied domains share IP addresses from a pool that belongs to the Cloudflare network. As a result, Cloudflare does not offer dedicated or exclusive IP addresses.

With private cloud, you gain the immediate benefits of public cloud — agility, speed and cost savings — while keeping your data secure in your own private environment. Today’s private cloud is more versatile than ever. For example, it can run a software-defined data center (SDDC) on top of a single-tenant infrastructure to create a complete cloud-like experience while opening up new possibilities for your business. Private cloud delivers a wide range of advantages for businesses that need to: Move from a capex cost model to an opex model with consumption-based pricing Flex transaction capacity within minutes Move out of a data center, but keep applications and data nearby Whatever your modernization goals, there’s a Rackspace Technology® private cloud solution that meets your needs.

After installation, Directory Sync cannot automatically synchronize existing passwords because they are unreadable from the Active Directory. Passwords must be reset after installation to ensure password synchronization. Directory Sync is compatible only with Hosted Exchange 2010, Hosted Exchange 2013, Hosted Exchange 2016, and Rackspace Email. You must have Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.0 on the target DC and any other DCs in the system. You can download the appropriate .NET Framework from the Microsoft Download Center .

Enable the following ports on the Directory Sync server: 443 - Outbound HTTPS connections from the Directory Sync service to the Rackspace API. 8732 - Open for connections from other DCs to the Directory Sync server, but not used for any connections outside your network. This port is used by DC password hooks. 8080 - Used only locally on the Directory Sync service server for a web browser user interface. You can block this port for any external connections. Communication between Directory Sync and Rackspace is secured through HTTPS. Communications between the Active Directory password hook and Directory Sync are secured with Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) transport security, which uses Windows authentication and encryption.

This synchronization type initiates only on the first synchronization process. Delta synchronization finds changes available for synchronization in Active Directory that occurred since the last synchronization. This synchronization type runs automatically every 5 minutes by default but can also be performed manually. To manually run a delta synchronization, click the Sync History tab and then click the Sync Now button. Note: The Directory Sync services never make changes to the directory. All access is read-only. Synchronize users and groups For information about how to start synchronizing your Active Directory objects to your mailboxes and distribution lists, see the Rackspace Directory Sync Operations Guide . Install password synchronization for multiple DCs (optional) The main installer for Directory Sync is installed on one DC that communicates directly to Rackspace. The DC communicates through the Rackspace API to the Cloud Office Control Panel over an HTTPS connection on can also be performed manually. To manually run a delta synchronization, click the Sync History tab and then click the Sync Now button. Note: The Directory Sync services never make changes to the directory. All access is read-only. Synchronize users and groups For information about how to start synchronizing your Active Directory objects to your mailboxes and distribution lists, see the Rackspace Directory Sync Operations Guide . Install password synchronization for multiple DCs (optional) The main installer for Directory Sync is installed on one DC that communicates directly to Rackspace. The DC communicates through the Rackspace API to the Cloud Office Control Panel over an HTTPS connection on port 443. This DC, or primary DC, includes the Directory Sync UI and is where Directory Sync is configured. If you have multiple DCs to manage the Active Directory, you must install the Password Handler on all DCs except the primary DC (the Password Handler is installed during the initial setup). Normally, password changes in a network occur locally and then are replicated to the other DCs. Directory Sync is unable to see those password changes after replication because of encryption. To ensure that password changes are synchronized, each DC requires the Password Handler to be installed directly. This installation requires each DC to restart. Password changes made in the other DCs are delivered to the primary DC over port 8732. Multiple DCs communicate internally with the primary DC and do not send any password changes outside of the network. All password synchronizations are funneled through the primary DC and then synchronized to Rackspace. The following figure illustrates this communication process. During the installation of the Directory Sync service on the primary DC, the Directory Sync Password Handler Install folder was created on the desktop. Use the installer in this folder to synchronize your users' passwords across multiple DCs. Note: The .msi file within the folder should be installed only on the secondary DCs. This process applies to multiple DCs (two or more). Repeat the following steps for each additional DC in the Active Directory forest. Important: You must restart each DC to complete this process. Consider performing these steps during off-hours. Copy the .msi file to the secondary DC. Double-click the installation file and click Next on the welcome page of the wizard. On the next page, click Install . After the restart, click Finish . The Password Handler of Directory Sync is installed. Note: This application runs in the background. You do not have to configure any settings. Settings are taken from the primary DC. Now that the installation is complete, see DCs (two or more). Repeat the following steps for each additional DC in the Active Directory forest. Important: You must restart each DC to complete this process. Consider performing these steps during off-hours. Copy the .msi file to the secondary DC. Double-click the installation file and click Next on the welcome page of the wizard. On the next page, click Install . After the restart, click Finish . The Password Handler of Directory Sync is installed. Note: This application runs in the background. You do not have to configure any settings. Settings are taken from the primary DC. Now that the installation is complete, see the Rackspace Directory Sync Administrator's Guide and the Directory Sync Operations Guide to learn how to use Directory Sync and its features.

To get the most out of their inventory investment, it's critical that they avoid known issues by being patched up to the most recent product patches available. The Patch Wizard is a key tool to use to keep patches up-to-date. The Patch Wizard is an interface that analyzes and compares patches currently applied in your instance to the patches included in the Recommended Patch List (RPL). It allows you to set your execution preferences, then performs impact analysis, and allows easy download of the patches that you decide to apply. You can easily access the Patch Wizard from the Oracle Applications Manager menu by using the System Administrator Responsibility. Oracle EBS 12 has an integrated Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Gateway that leverages the Multiple Organization Access Control (MOAC) security feature to ensure that only authorized users have data access privilege within an operating unit. Businesses can define multiple organizations and the relationships between them in a single installation of EBS. Examples of multiple organizations are sets of books, business groups, legal entities, operating units, or inventory organizations. The following table shows the relationship between security profiles, responsibilities, and operating units for a sales company: With MOAC, a system administrator can predefine the scope of access privileges as a security profile, and then use the profile option MO: Security Profile to associate the security profile with a responsibility. By using this approach, multiple operating units are associated with a security profile and the security profile is assigned to a responsibility. Therefore, .

Payment on Receipt enables you to automatically create standard, unapproved invoices for payment of goods based on receipt transactions. Invoices are created by using a combination of receipt and purchase order information, which eliminates duplicate manual data entry and ensures accurate and timely data processing. Payment on Receipt is also known as Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS) and Self Billing. You can automatically create invoices with multiple items and distribution lines and include tax. You define which supplier sites participate in Payment on Receipt and enforce matching rules to ensure the proper payments are made to the suppliers. The Pay on Receipt Auto Invoice program automatically creates an invoice batch depending on the options in the Payables Options window. Invoice count and invoice total are calculated automatically. Oracle Payments does not allow you to select random invoices for payment. However, you can use the PRIORITY_NUMBER option for this purpose. This option has a default value of 99, which indicates top priority. Make sure that you set appropriate value for PRIORITY_NUMBER on invoices to be selected for next payment process to use this feature. The Oracle Payments process in release 12 creates each line for each remittance (invoice). If the payment batch selected 1000 remittances, the Payments process creates 1000 lines. The Check Template creates a number of overflow checks based on the Number of remittances per page setup value. Some clients don’t want to see so many VOID checks. They want to print one check with a summary line. The regulatory reporting feature available in the Oracle Payments module can be used by corporations to manage the reporting that is required by a regulatory body, such as a country-specific government, a central bank, or an individual bank. This feature provides the following fields with seeded values in the Regulatory Reporting region of the Payment Process Profile page. These fields enable you to determine the conditions under which regulatory reporting can be generated. No Reporting Reporting Directly to Central Bank Reporting Made by Bank Oracle Payments also provides a SQL function to personalize the conditions and implement business criteria.

Oracle iProcurement can automatically forward documents when users do not respond to notifications. This tool is used to prevent documents from holding up business productivity. Oracle workflows manage this functionality, typically set up to send a first and second reminder after pre-determined time periods. If no response is received, the system forwards the notification to the next approver. For more information, see the Oracle iProcurement User Guide . Receivables Tips This section includes tips about working with receivables in EBS. Oracle Receivables supports revenue contingencies with a robust, event-based revenue management process. The event-based model is based on stringent revenue recognition requirements authorized by US GAAP or International Accounting Standards Board. In Oracle Receivables Revenue, contingencies are terms and conditions in a sales contract or order that prevent revenue from being immediately recognized. Following are typical contingencies that can delay revenue recognition: Fiscal funding clauses (for government contracts) Cancellation clauses Customer acceptance clauses Customer creditworthiness Nonstandard payment terms Nonstandard refund policies Oracle Receivables uses event-based revenue management to automatically evaluate your invoices and determine whether to immediately recognize revenue, or temporarily defer revenue to an unearned revenue account. Revenue is subsequently recognized depending on certain events, such as customer acceptance or receipt of payment. For more information, see the Oracle Receivables Implementation Guide . Oracle Advanced Collections provides a robust feature called Universal Work Queue (UWQ). UWQ provides a high-level list of all actionable work assigned to or owned : Fiscal funding clauses (for government contracts) Cancellation clauses Customer acceptance clauses Customer creditworthiness Nonstandard payment terms Nonstandard refund policies Oracle Receivables uses event-based revenue management to automatically evaluate your invoices and determine whether to immediately recognize revenue, or temporarily defer revenue to an unearned revenue account.

Oracle Advanced Collections provides a robust feature called Universal Work Queue (UWQ). UWQ provides a high-level list of all actionable work assigned to or owned by a collection's agent. In UWQ, the work is automatically populated on a screen as part of the automated collections management flow provided by Oracle Advanced Collections. Collections agents save their time and effort in finding work or remembering follow ups to be taken for various customers. For more information, see the Oracle Advanced Collections User Guide . If you use Invoice Credit Memo Netting in Oracle Receivables release 12, ensure that the credit memo LINE and TAX link is the same as the invoice LINE and TAX link. Otherwise, the netting will not work. When you are importing multiple, pre-calculated TAX lines, the link between TAX and LINE is critical. In release 11i, you can assign all TAX lines to one LINE , but in release 12, you need to assign a distinct TAX code to each LINE . If enough LINE lines are not available, create $0.00 dummy LINE lines and use them for the TAX line. Scoring in Oracle Advanced Collections is another feature that forms the foundation of business collections activities. Oracle Advanced Collections uses scoring in the following ways: To determine transaction status - Current, Delinquent, or Pre-delinquent When scoring transactions, Advanced Collections looks at transactions from Oracle Receivables, including the following transactions: Invoices, debit memos, and chargebacks Lease invoices originating in Oracle Lease Management Loan invoices originating in Oracle Loans In general, if a customer has delinquent transactions, the customer is considered to be delinquent.

Oracle Projects determines the default expenditure date for project-related supplier invoice items by using the PA: Default Expenditure Item Date Source for Supplier Costs profile option. This profile option is used to determine the default expenditure item date for supplier invoice distribution lines and derives the item expenditure date during the invoice match process and when you enter unmatched invoices. The default expenditure date is derived when the concurrent process, PRC: Interface Supplier Costs , is submitted to interface project-related supplier costs into Oracle Projects from Oracle Payables. For the transactions that are rejected during the validation and interfacing to Oracle Projects, the default expenditure item date can be updated for invoice distribution lines on the Invoice Workbench in Oracle Payables. Additionally, you can update the expenditure item date using the Review Transactions window within Oracle Projects. For more information, see Oracle Projects Implementation Guide . Oracle Projects allows you to track project costs against project budgets. Project Budgets can be defined in the following ways in Oracle Projects: Directly via budget screens in Oracle Projects Import budgets from external systems via import process.

The Payables Cash Requirement Report produces output based on the Payment Template defined in the payment process request. The Payables Cash Requirement generates output for all business units that Payables Manager has access to enter invoices and process payment requests. The Payables Manager can run the report from several pages in Oracle Payables including Manage Scheduled Processes and Create Payment Process Request Template . Oracle has alternatives to full blown implementations of advanced supply chain planning. Options such as Min Max Planning and Reorder Point Planning assist in getting your demand history and might serve as a quick win until there is proper funding or an approved advanced supply chain planning implementation project. If your financial data is spread across multiple ledgers that do not share the same chart of accounts and accounting calendar combination, or the ledgers are on separate instances, consider using the Global Consolidation System within Oracle General Ledger to consolidate results. You can leverage a proven methodology called Data Transfer Consolidation (DTC) in the Global Consolidation System. DTC methodology is used to move your financial data from diverse ledgers and data sources into a single consolidation parent ledger. You can then report on and analyze consolidated financial information from this consolidated ledger. Use the Global Consolidation System in situations where you need to physically move the data to a consolidated location rather than simply report off multiple ledgers in a set. Global Consolidation System is the traditional consolidation methodology in Oracle Financials. The Global Consolidation System imports in the form of balances and journal level vouchers, and from appropriate accounts from the trial balances of subsidiary ledgers.

Rackspace Managed Platform for Kubernetes enables the movement of your container-based applications across multiple clouds and environments for greater flexibility and accelerated time to market. The Rackspace Managed Platform for Kubernetes includes support for Rackspace Hosted Kubernetes on Bare Metal, AWS EKS and support for Azure Kubernetes Service. Rackspace Kubernetes Stack The Rackspace Kubernetes Stack provides a consistent set of technologies across all your clusters for repeatable and scalable deployments. At the core of the stack, you’ll find the Infrastructure, Certified, and Catalog Application categories: Infrastructure Applications are fully integrated into MPK's software with one-click virtual machine deployments and managed upgrades. Certified Applications are deployable through MPK's software, but integration is more limited with lifecycle activities managed by Rackspace Technology and the customer. Catalog Applications are commonly open source and limited to community support. We deliberately defined this category because we realize that no two customers are alike, and it is critical that MPK allows for some level of customization. Enterprise Grade Security We secure your technology stack from the infrastructure to the Kubernetes cluster, including the containers running inside the cluster and the additional services required to run applications. We care of it, so you don’t have to. Highly Scalable Based on the same technology that allows Google to run billions of containers each week, Kubernetes can easily scale to meet the needs of even the fastest-growing enterprise.

Our Anti-Abuse and Acceptable Use teams work diligently to maintain the best possible reputation with mail providers. By following these best practices, you partner with us to ensure high deliverability for everyone.### Use a Bulk Email Service (Like Mailchimp) Rackspace Email does not offer bulk email services. To ensure your bulk emails are not blocked, you must use a reputable third-party bulk email service provider (ESP) to send out your content. Reputable ESPs deliver your bulk email in a way that mail providers accept as legitimate mail and handle much of the technical compliance for you. Marketing, Advertising, or Promotional Emails : Use services like Mailchimp or Marketo . Transactional Emails (e.g., password resets, order confirmations): Use services like Mailgun or SendGrid . For more information on prerequisite terminology, see Rackspace Email Support Terminology . 1. Critical Technical Best Practice: Sender Authentication (Mandatory) Modern email ecosystems require cryptographic proof that an email legitimately came from your domain. For any organization sending over 5,000 emails per day, implementing DMARC, SPF, and DKIM is mandatory . 2. Recipients and List Hygiene The quality and engagement of your recipient list are primary factors in determining your sender reputation. List Accuracy and Spam Traps Ensure lists are current and accurate. Sending emails to a large number of invalid recipients ( hard bounces ) is a clear indicator of a poor list quality, which negatively affects your sender reputation. Avoid Spam Traps . Mail providers and ISPs use common invalid or aged email addresses as spam traps . Sending mail to these traps will result in immediate blocklisting of your domain. Use a validation service regularly. Bounce Messages: Hard vs. Soft Bounces When an email cannot be delivered, the receiving server sends a bounce message (or Non-Delivery Report/NDR) with a code indicating the reason. Understanding these types is crucial for list management: Hard Bounce (Permanent Error) : Indicates a permanent delivery failure (e.g., the email address does not exist or the domain is misspelled). Addresses resulting in a hard bounce must be immediately and permanently removed from your list. Soft Bounce (Temporary Error) : Indicates a temporary issue will result in immediate blocklisting of your domain. Use a validation service regularly. Bounce Messages: Hard vs. Soft Bounces When an email cannot be delivered, the receiving server sends a bounce message (or Non-Delivery Report/NDR) with a code indicating the reason. Understanding these types is crucial for list management: Hard Bounce (Permanent Error) : Indicates a permanent delivery failure (e.g., the email address does not exist or the domain is misspelled). Addresses resulting in a hard bounce must be immediately and permanently removed from your list. Soft Bounce (Temporary Error) : Indicates a temporary issue (e.g., the recipient's mailbox is full, the server is temporarily down, or the message is too large). Soft bounces may resolve themselves, but repeated soft bounces often signal a need to remove the recipient. If you received a bounce message when sending an email, see our list of common email bounce messages for more information. Confirmed Opt-In (Permission) Use confirmed opt-in practices when collecting email addresses for mailing lists. This means the user signs up and then clicks a confirmation link in a follow-up email. This greatly reduces the chances of your email being reported as unsolicited. Engagement and Sunset Policy Prioritize Engagement : Mailbox providers track how recipients interact with your emails (opens, clicks, replies). Low engagement rates signal to ISPs that your mail is unwanted, even if it’s not marked as spam. Implement a Sunset Policy : Periodically identify and remove or stop mailing subscribers who have not engaged (opened or clicked) with an email in the last 6 to 12 months . These inactive users contribute to low engagement rates and damage your reputation. 3. Unsubscribe Compliance (Critical) Allowing recipients to easily and immediately unsubscribe is mandatory and prevents users from hitting the \"Spam\" button instead. Provide an Unsubscribe Link : You are legally required to provide a clear, visible link in every marketing or newsletter email that allows recipients to remove themselves from your mailing list. Mandatory One-Click Unsubscribe : Implement the List-Unsubscribe header in the email's metadata. This enables recipients to unsubscribe with a single click directly from the email client interface (e.g., a banner in Gmail or Outlook), fulfilling a core 2024 compliance requirement. 4. Reputation and Platform Management Your sending infrastructure requires a dedicated strategy to protect your reputation. Website Reputation Maintain a safe and reputable business website that includes easy access to any privacy policies Unsubscribe Link : You are legally required to provide a clear, visible link in every marketing or newsletter email that allows recipients to remove themselves from your mailing list. Mandatory One-Click Unsubscribe : Implement the List-Unsubscribe header in the email's metadata. This enables recipients to unsubscribe with a single click directly from the email client interface (e.g., a banner in Gmail or Outlook), fulfilling a core 2024 compliance requirement. 4. Reputation and Platform Management Your sending infrastructure requires a dedicated strategy to protect your reputation. Website Reputation Maintain a safe and reputable business website that includes easy access to any privacy policies and clear contact information. Spam filter providers often audit high-volume senders by visiting their websites. Vet Partners : If you allow other companies to include references to your business in their emails, ensure they are reputable. If they send out spam, your domain could be flagged as being related to that abuse. **Dedicated Subdomains and IP Warming Isolate Sending Traffic with Subdomains : Use different subdomains to separate critical transactional mail from bulk marketing mail. Example : Use trans.yourdomain.com for password resets and receipts, and marketing.yourdomain.com for newsletters and promotions. This ensures that if a bulk marketing blast encounters a reputation issue, your critical transactional mail remains unaffected. Example : Use trans.yourdomain.com for password resets and receipts, and marketing.yourdomain.com for newsletters and promotions. This ensures that if a bulk marketing blast encounters a reputation issue, your critical transactional mail remains unaffected. Implement an IP Warming Protocol : If you are a high-volume sender using a new, dedicated IP address, you must follow a slow, deliberate IP warming schedule. This means starting with a low daily volume and gradually increasing the send rate over several weeks to build a positive reputation with ISPs. 5. Message Content We recommend that you follow our person-to-person best practices when creating message content. Avoid using excessive use of spam triggers such as all-caps, excessive exclamation marks, or misleading subject lines.
