Spectra Logic has announced a partnership with Wasabi Technologies, that integrates Wasabi cloud storage with the Spectra Vail unified data management solution.
With the integration, Spectra Vail customers can now take advantage of Wasabi’s low-cost storage service, with no fees for egress or API requests, to further optimise data storage costs and accessibility across cloud and on-premise infrastructure.
By ensuring that data resides in the location where it brings the most value and at optimal cost, Vail enables organisations to extend their data centres, unifying on-premise storage with Wasabi hot cloud storage for a “modern, scalable hybrid cloud architecture”.
Wasabi promises to provide simple, predictable and affordable hot cloud storage for businesses all over the world. It enables organisations to store and instantly access an infinite amount of data at “one fifth of the price of the competition”, with no complex tiers or unpredictable egress fees.
“As enterprise data continues to grow, IT professionals are turning to cloud storage for the instant scalability and flexibility that the cloud offers. However, this raises the challenge of managing data between on-premise and cloud storage in an efficient, intuitive and cost-effective manner,” said Whit Jackson, vice president for technology alliances, and media & entertainment, at Wasabi Technologies.
“With Spectra Vail software, organisations can easily manage data from a single view across virtually any environment, and move data in and out of Wasabi hot cloud storage without incurring ingress or egress fees, thereby enabling true storage cost optimisation.”
Betsy Doughty, vice president of corporate marketing at Spectra Logic, added: “Spectra Vail software in combination with Wasabi enables organisations to enhance their data centres by providing the ability to transfer data back and forth seamlessly to the most optimal storage tier, whether that be on-premise, in Wasabi’s cloud storage, or both.”
