“CiS is a cloud-inclusive storage approach that offers enormous potential advantages for large swaths of user data, yet without requiring a large leap of faith, a huge check-book, or a total change in human nature.”

by Mark Peters, Senior Analyst

Read the Enterprise Strategy Group’s market report on the growth and end user benefits of cloud-integrated storage (CiS).

This report nets out the “what” and “why” of cloud-integrated storage:

• The WHAT is consolidation, ease, flexibility, and operational certainty (for VM sprawl, e-mail, files, etc).

• The WHY is ROI/TCO, plus improved (integrated!) resilience and recovery.
