StorageNewsletter.com, Wednesday, December 4th, 2024
Storage class is priced 85% lower than existing SSD storage class and 20% lower than traditional HDD-based deployments on premises, and brings full elasticity and intelligent tiering to NAS data sets.
When I speak to customers who are planning to migrate massive amounts of on-premises data to AWS, they tell me that they want to simplify their storage management, reduce their costs, and to make the data more accessible so that it can be used for analytics, machine learning training, genomics, and other use cases. Customers are already using NAS on-premises, and are looking for a cloud-based upgrade that offers similar capabilities including point-in-time snapshots, data clones, and user management.
