Cloud Storage Gateways: Data Protection in the Cloud
with the increasing number of end devices (smartphones, tablets, and other devices to a Wi-Fi). In the rapidly growing number of applications to send audio and video using IP protocol (VoIP). And for all this, cloud storage is an attractive option.
The use of cloud storage stand strong arguments:
Charged only for the used space,
Scalability almost in real time,
The ability to access data from anywhere,
No concerns about security and data management.
These advantages, however, do not bring tangible benefits due to the limited bandwidth, low transfer speed, large file sizes, data security concerns and lack of integration of installed applications with data stored in the cloud. A new class of solutions - Cloud Storage Gateways - enable organizations to address these issues and the smooth transition to the cloud.
Goals are perfect for storing your backups with large size, but less demanding and more readily amenable to duplication than other applications. Many companies still use tape for data protection, which requires an investment of time management. This can be avoided by implementing Cloud Storage Gateway solutions.
Both supporters tape and cloud storage as an effective cost of each solution, So let's compare the two systems. Most goals enables encryption, deduplication, and creating external data backup without additional license fees. And most backup applications require additional software licenses for deduplication and encryption, and - in time - additional hardware to cope with the increased load. Storing data on tapes offsite associated with monthly fees and additional costs for defaulting back tapes. If a company has many remote offices, the cost of servicing the local facility to backup and the same external backup can be significant.
Savings and benefits of what we can expect using Cloud Storage Gateway solutions:
Administrators using the tapes say that the backup process requires a considerable amount of time needed to manage the rotation of tapes offsite. Costs associated with the backup in this way are considerable. Engineering firm spends more than 28 thousand dollars a year on-site tape for head office and branches. Implementation of backup storage in the cloud enabled remote workers to work on CAD files in the cloud, and a fast and secure access to data. By eliminating tape backup process, it is more efficient and up to 60% cheaper compared to the traditional model. An additional advantage is to ensure business continuity, which allows you to restore the office in less time than before.
Companies that nake the use of tape in the backup note, their administrators have more free time. Savings can be as much as 100 hours per year for a manufacturing company. Other companies, in turn, do not need to hire administrators who are responsible for backup. Highly qualified IT staff can now devote more time to projects which are key to the company, thus increasing its competitiveness in the market.
Company of the technology industry, which has decided to modernize the library backup saved around 100 thousand entering the gate instead of dollars buying larger libraries necessary to protect the increasing amount of data.
