Sphere 3D Introduces SnapCLOUD™ Virtual Enterprise Storage Platform for Microsoft Azure Cloud
The platform is designed to deliver fully-featured enterprise NAS functionality in the cloud.
Sphere 3D Corp. has announced SnapCLOUD™, its new cloud integrated virtual storage platform, designed to deliver fully-featured enterprise NAS functionality in the cloud.
"Explosive data growth across the enterprise and a demand for anywhere, anytime access is creating a new set of challenges for data protection, management and mobility. While many IT organizations want to embrace the cloud, 90% of the organizations we surveyed have policies in place that restrict certain types of data from being stored in a third-party cloud. These organizations are looking for hybrid cloud solutions to fit these needs, rather than adopting multiple point products," said Terri McClure, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group, Inc. "With SnapCLOUD as part of its portfolio of software defined storage solutions, Sphere 3D appears to be addressing customers' needs to be able to centrally manage and deliver all of their enterprise data, regardless of whether it is on premise, in the cloud, or which device employees prefer to use for work."
