Learn how to control your performance in the cloud and win an SSD worth £360!
67% of all workloads will be run in the cloud by 2016. This isn't a surprising stat, given that cloud services are providing the necessary tools we need to overcome traditional storage challenges. Our next webinar, Controlling performance in the cloud: taking charge of your hosting environment, shows you how.
In a Q&A with Stuart Oliver, senior program manager at storage experts SolidFire, we'll be finding out how to overcome the historical challenges of traditional storage architectures, and asking which key applications have the most to gain by using flash storage in the cloud.
In the past, sharing a multi-tenant environment meant it was difficult to control individual performance because the I/O usage of other tenants would affect the storage performance available to you. The inability to throttle performance independently from capacity means you end up with an inconsistent service. To get around the problem you end up dedicating storage to each tenant which isn't really what cloud computing is all about and pushes costs up.
Given that most of our customers' main objectives are to increase operational efficiency and ideally reduce cost (whilst keeping application performance consistent), dedicated SSD storage seems to tick all the boxes. Join us on the 20th February at 10am as we quiz Stuart on the top 5 must-ask questions when choosing high-performance storage, including what to expect in terms of SLAs and guaranteed IOPS.
If you have any questions of your own regarding storage performance in the cloud, we'll be holding a Q&A session at the end of the webinar. By staying until the end, you automatically enter yourself into our prize draw to win a 300GB Solid State Drive worth £360, or a SpheroBall worth £100. Winners will be announced on the day – so we hope to see you there and good luck!
