In this on demand webinar, join Storage Switzerland and Cloudian as we describe three ways cloud storage and on-premises storage can complement each other. Learn how the new world of multi-cloud storage coupled with scalable on-premises storage can: * Achieve limitless scalability and seamless capacity expansion * Enable unified data management across clouds and on-prem * Consolidate object and file data to a single storage environment * Reduce costs and eliminate complexity

1. Webinar
Cloud Storage vs.
On-Premises Storage
Learn how the new world of multi-cloud storage
coupled with scalable on-premises storage can:
1. Achieve limitless scalability and seamless capacity
expansion
2. Enable unified data management across cloud and on-
prem
3. Consolidate object and file data to a single storage
environment
4. Reduce cost and eliminate capacity

3. ● Cloud Storage Architectures are Built
from Object Storage
● Object Storage is:
○ A data storage / organizational
method
■ Traditional file systems use
folders and directories
■ Object Storage uses unique IDs
instead
Level Set: Object Storage
IS Cloud Storage

4. ● Massive scale
● Rich Metadata
● Petabytes managed by single
administrator
● Uses commodity hardware
● Enterprises need those capabilities
(obviously)
Why Do Cloud
Storage Providers
Use Object Storage?

5. ● Unstructured Data Storage
● Next Generation NAS / File Server
● Archive Storage
● Backup Storage
Enterprise Object
Storage Use Cases

6. ● It should be but…
○ Most object storage systems don’t
actually connect to cloud storage
○ If it does connect to cloud storage
it treats it as a separate silo
● Instead object storage should
integrate the cloud into the existing
cluster
But is Object Storage / Cloud Storage an
Either-or?

7. ● More than just cloud scale or cloud copy
○ The cloud is another node in the cluster
○ Location determined by object storage’s
node policy
● Enables Unstructured Data Consolidation
● Consolidates Object and NAS
● Reduces Costs and Complexity
The Advantage of
Cloud Integrated
Object Storage

8. ● Use the cloud as a long term
storage area
● Use on-premises as long term and
cloud for compute
● Leverage object to move
traditional file data to the cloud
Cloud Flexibility

9. Summary
● Take a Crawl, Walk, Run Approach
○ But with the end in mind
● Crawl
○ Object Storage to solve Today’s Use Cases
○ Lay the foundation For Next Generation Apps
● Walk
○ Leverage ONE Cloud for
○ Archiving
○ Disaster Recovery
○ Cloud Processing
● Run
○ Multi-Cloud
○ Cloud Freedom
○ Leverage Unique Cloud Capabilities
