Cloud has many advantages, but it also has
challenges for enterprises

With cloud services, IT infrastructure becomes a
utilitymanaged on a large scale and used
as-needed locally

What is the solution?
The solution is the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud.
10
The hybrid cloud can be thought of as four
quadrants
Compute Cloud
Storage Cloud
App servers
Bucket 1
Bucket n
Bucket 2
Cloud Compute and Storage
On-premise Compute and Storage
NAS
Object
On-premises Storage
On-premises Compute

Each quadrant is made available to the others

• Deliver scalable NAS for cloud compute servers
  such as Amazon EC2
• Hide latency to on-premise and in-cloud storage
• Allow for burst compute and permanent IT
  infrastructure

Virtual Edge Filer

• Cache data near compute
• Hide latency to storage

• Enable scalable NAS performance
• Provide low latency
• Save cost by allowing data to be stored wherever
  it makes sense
• Support global namespace
• Allow data mobility
