Cloud Storage

Public vs. Private Clouds

Whether you are looking for private cloud storage or public cloud storage, Evolving Solutions will work with you to understand which one is best for you. As new cloud technologies emerge, IT organizations are looking at the pros and cons of each option. 

Public Cloud Storage

Public cloud storage services for IT organizations are growing exponentially and are designed for multi-tenancy to enable isolation of data, access, and security. The type of content stored on public clouds range from static application data, archived content, and backup and disaster recovery data. Public clouds allow for companies to be infinitely scalable while keeping the total cost of ownership low.

Private Cloud Storage

Private cloud storage is a dedicated, controlled service created specifically for your organization. A private cloud storage infrastructure is scalable as your needs increase.  As you grow, private cloud storage allows you to configure new storage quickly and inexpensively as well as having the ability to add capacity as needed. Having private cloud storage protects data from data center failures and also put objects on storage clusters close to the users who need them.

With security being a major concern surrounding cloud computing, there are fewer security and privacy risks associated with private versus public clouds.

Hybrid Cloud Storage

The hybrid cloud model uses a combination of public and private clouds. Hybrid storage clouds are often useful for archiving and backup functions, allowing local data to be replicated to a public cloud. By integrating multiple cloud services, users may be able to ease the transition to public cloud services while avoiding issues such as PCI compliance.
