DESCRIPTION
Download the Whitepaper from http://lp.averesystems.com/scalable-nas-for-cloud-bursting-white-paper-0 Demand for enterprise-class computing and storage in the cloud is growing. However, creating an environment that works with existing on-premises NAS has many challenges like an unfamiliar interface, performance degradation, user disruption and potential lock-in. Take a look at this presentation to understand how easy it is easy to use cloud compute resources, store your data anywhere or replace aging on-premises infrastructure with Avere Hybrid Cloud NAS. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

With cloud services, IT infrastructure becomes a utility—managed on a large
scale and used as-needed locally
9Proprietary & Confidential
The solution is the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud.
But how do enterprise data centers cost-effectively overcome these challenges and transition to infrastructure as a utility?
And, how does it become as seamless as traditional utilities like electricity, gas and water?
What is the solution?

The hybrid cloud can be thought of as four quadrants
