You Can’t Afford to Use Cloud Storage

Can you afford to use cloud storage? Although it is elastic, agile, and simple, enterprises have faced many challenges using cloud storage. It’s difficult to manage the cost of cloud storage, since it’s so easy to set up and run. And not all applications are able to access cloud storage directly, so gateways and translation layers are needed. There are so many options now, it can be a challenge even to understand them let alone use them properly. The focus should be on selecting and managing the right type of storage for the job, not simply moving data to the cloud.
