This Qumulo presentation at Cloud Field Day 23 focuses on delivering business continuity and disaster avoidance through its platform. Qumulo leverages hybrid-cloud architectures to ensure uninterrupted data access and operational resilience by seamlessly synchronizing and migrating unstructured enterprise data between on-premises and cloud environments. This empowers organizations to remain agile in the face of disruptions.
The presentation dives into two main approaches. The first leverages cloud elasticity for a cost-effective disaster recovery solution. By backing up on-premises data to cloud-native, cold storage tiers, Qumulo allows for near-instantaneous failover to an active system. This approach utilizes the same underlying hardware performance for both active and cold storage tiers, enabling a rapid transition and incurring higher costs only when necessary. This is a more cost-effective alternative to building a complete, on-premises continuity and hot standby data center.
The second approach emphasizes building continuity and availability from the ground up. By deploying a cloud-native Qumulo system, the presentation highlights the benefits of multi-zone availability within a region, offering greater durability and resilience compared to traditional on-premises setups. Qumulo’s data fabric ensures real-time data synchronization between on-prem and cloud environments, with data creation cached locally and then instantly available across all connected locations. This offers significant cost savings and operational efficiency by eliminating the need for traditional replication and failover procedures.
