Include Cloud Storage in MFT Workflows
Are you considering using cloud storage as a component of your IT infrastructure?
Cloud storage started as a low-cost way for teams and individuals to share files and improve productivity. But reliability and security issues kept many enterprises from incorporating it into their IT infrastructure.
With considerable improvements in reliability and security, many companies are taking another look at the benefits of cloud storage. No hardware or software to manage. Almost 100% uptime. Ability to scale as you need it. Pay-as-you-go pricing.
You probably want to try cloud storage, but how do you get started?
