With IT infrastructure distributed across multiple cloud environments, centralized management becomes a key element for multicloud operations. Prateesh Sharma, Product Manager, will highlight key capabilities of Dell Navigator for Multicloud Storage, including security, deployment, management, monitoring and data mobility across multicloud infrastructure.
Sharma presents the capabilities of Dell Apex Navigator for Multicloud Storage, which is a centralized management console designed to manage IT infrastructure across multiple cloud environments. He outlines five key capabilities of the tool:
1. Security: Apex Navigator emphasizes security with an API-first approach, federation, identity provider support, and single sign-on (SSO) to align with zero trust policies.
2. Deployment: It simplifies deployment to the cloud with four configuration steps, automating the provisioning of AWS resources.
3. Management: The tool offers in-context navigation to storage management tools for a seamless management experience.
4. Monitoring: Apex Navigator provides a single view for monitoring capacity and inventory, aiming to save time for users.
5. Data Mobility: It supports data movement across multicloud infrastructure, reducing manual interventions and custom processes.
Apex Navigator is built to accommodate different operating models, whether users prefer a graphical interface or API integration for automation. It can also be integrated with tools like Terraform.
The tool is offered as a SaaS-based solution, hosted on the web, and comes with a separate cost due to the value it provides in terms of automation, management, and complexity reduction. The presentation also touches on the future vision and strategy for Apex Navigator, including its support for deployments on Azure and other hyperscalers, as well as data mobility across different cloud providers.
