When organizations first start to leverage cloud resources they typically try to use the cloud to solve their biggest problems first; data protection and unstructured data management. The rapid and unprecedented growth of unstructured data has made both of these problems worse. Data protection is a safe first step since the cloud is only storing a copy of production data and doesn’t impact production performance. Cloud NAS is more significant because the cloud may be storing the ONLY copy of data and retrieving data from the cloud will impact performance unless latency is accounted for.
Selecting the right Cloud NAS solution is critical. In our white paper, “Not All Cloud NAS are the same – Understanding Cloud NAS Architectures”, Storage Switzerland details the various methods that Cloud NAS can be delivered to help IT professionals select the right solution for their organization.
The white paper is exclusively available to attendees of our on demand webinar. Register now and get the paper right away.
