Hyperconverged operations: moving secondary storage to the cloud, seamlessly
Secondary storage is one of those “necessary evils” that any company with data is always looking for ways to solve. Whether it’s digital information hanging out on a tape drive in a closet, or multiple versions of an email wending its way through the system, that data has to be stored somewhere for backup and compliance. However, such data is a bulky, drag on resources. With the advent of cloud technology, one of the newest concepts is hyperconverged secondary storage.
Cohesity Inc., a leader in the industry, targets this pain point. “We have a very simplistic solution that allows anyone to take their workloads or their applications from on-prem to Microsoft Azure, seamlessly. One single task, one place,” said Rawlinson Rivera (pictured), chief technology officer, Global Field, at Cohesity.
Rivera spoke with Stu Miniman (@stu) and Rebecca Knight (@knightrm), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during the Microsoft Ignite event in Orlando, Florida. In addition to secondary storage capabilities, they also discussed the importance of enterprise ecosystems. (* Disclosure below.)
Ecosystem flexibility
Moving data from one place to another can incur a great deal of risk; for example, moving data from a privately held data center to a public data center while also maintaining continuity and day-to-day business operations. Cohesity now has a solution that can move the data and have it validated without having to run a disaster recovery scenario to see if it really works. That kind of solution helps business executives sleep better at night, according to Rivera.
“Whenever you introduce any new solutions to any infrastructure, to any business, the biggest challenge is not the technology; it is how am I going to take that into my operating procedures and consume it as one?” Rivera explained.
One of the important issues for Cohesity is retaining the flexibility to work within any and all ecosystems, particularly Microsoft Azure. Cohesity provides the ability for its platform to be consumable for everyone within the ecosystem, within the industry. If there’s a particular application that a customer is using, it may be beneficial to use it on Cohesity’s platform, leveraging its unique capabilities, Rivera concluded.
