Video Blog: Choosing A Cloud Storage Gateway
During this video blog I provide you with a brief description of cloud storage gateways. Additionally, I review three general types of cloud storage gateways and what questions you need to ask when choosing a cloud storage gateway. I briefly address the main concerns which businesses and organizations have about storing their data in the cloud.
During the video blog I talk about cloud storage gateways and cloud storage providers, at one point I use these terms interchangeably. Therefore, let me clarify:
- A cloud storage gateway is a software package, virtual appliance, or NAS server (with a cloud component embedded) which sits at your business locations. It is not the public cloud itself.
- A cloud storage provider is typically the public data center such as Amazon S3 or Microsoft.
Hope you enjoy the video blog and please feel free to contact me if I can assist your business in developing a cloud storage strategy.
