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.

Enterprise Hybrid Cloud: Enabling Flexibility & Simplicity
Why cloud? Deploy faster with lower risk Lower costs Keep up with data growth Simplify data management Proprietary & Confidential
Cloud has many advantages, but it also has challenges for enterprises Compute Cloud Storage Cloud App servers Bucket 1 Bucket 2 Bucket n NAS Object On-premises Storage On-premises Compute Proprietary & Confidential

With cloud services, IT infrastructure becomes a utility—managed on a large scale and used as-needed locally Proprietary & Confidential
What is the solution? 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? The solution is the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud. Proprietary & Confidential
The hybrid cloud can be thought of as four quadrants Compute Cloud Storage Cloud App servers Bucket 1 Bucket 2 Bucket n Cloud Compute and Storage On-premise Compute and Storage NAS Object On-premises Storage On-premises Compute Proprietary & Confidential
Each quadrant is made available to the others… Compute Cloud Storage Cloud App servers Bucket 1 Bucket 2 Bucket n NAS Object On-premises Storage On-premises Compute Proprietary & Confidential
