SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corp. (NYSE: QTM) today announced Q-Cloud® Protect is now available as a cloud-based appliance running on top of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace infrastructure. Q-Cloud Protect™ is a virtual deduplication appliance that works with Quantum DXi® systems to provide a hybrid-cloud backup and disaster recovery (DR) solution, and is designed for companies with single sites looking to protect their business against localized disasters, organizations eliminating tape for off-site protection and companies seeking a hybrid-cloud approach to backup and DR. Q-Cloud Protect is available today in the Amazon Public Marketplace, and will soon be available in the AWS GovCloud and C2S environments.
Disaster Recovery -- A Practical First Step Toward Cloud Adoption
Companies of all sizes need to protect data from the threat of disasters. A best practice for data protection is to keep one copy of data off-site, but many companies struggle with the expense. Sending tapes off-site, or purchasing hardware for DR sites or hosted data centers requires additional capital expense and can be difficult to manage.
Off-site storage for disaster recovery as part of a hybrid approach to data protection is a practical place to start using the cloud. Cloud can make it economically viable for companies to follow the best practice of storing critical data off-site to protect against localized disasters, without capital investment.
Q-Cloud Protect Benefits
Q-Cloud Protect offers some key advantages to make DR simple, providing an easy option to protect data against localized disasters and replacing upfront costs with a pay-as-you-go OPEX model:
