Private or Public Cloud Storage? It’s your choice.
STEALTH Software offers you a Freedom of Choice when it comes to Cloud Storage. We can connect you to public cloud storages like Windows Azure and Amazon S3 or to private cloud storages like Caringo CAStor™ and ParaScale. The choice is up to you.
Here are some decision criteria:
Pricing
- Do you want to outsource the complete operational management and invest cost of hardware and software to an external party or do want to keep it all within the company?
- Do you want a pricing model based on a ‘pay-as-you-store’ model used by the big public cloud storage providers or are you willing to invest in own hardware and software to create an own private cloud storage?
Nature of Content
- Does your content contain company vital information that you want in the most secure environment or is it bulk data that you want to store so that it does not take up expensive storage space and is to valuable to delete?
Perception
- What is your perception to public cloud storage?
Storage Technique (File System Structure versus Content Adressed Storage)
- Do you want your data fast? Is your content being accessed frequently?Or is it important that your data are being archived according to strict policies regarding compliance?
Depending on the answers on these criteria you can find out which cloud storage is most suitable for your SharePoint.
