Some of the most popular use cases for the cloud are backup, disaster recovery, and long-term retention. As more and more data is stored – and copied – in the cloud, what was once a small and almost negligible cost for cloud storage has started to significantly eat into technology budgets.

As cost pressures increase, there are better ways to approach cloud storage than simply continuing to push data up into the cloud.

Attend this webinar for a thought-provoking discussion of cloud storage cost reduction, featuring ActualTech Media Analyst Scott Bekker and Quest Senior Product Management Consultant and Technology Strategist Adrian Moir.

Critically, Adrian and Scott will show how no strategy for cloud storage cost reduction can begin with costs alone. They'll examine the numerous factors that must be taken into account, from how data should be encrypted to ensuring immutability to the business reasons for keeping and protecting the data in the first place.

After covering those key considerations, they'll walk through the steps of developing a properly nuanced and realistic strategy for containing cloud costs. They'll dive into best practices like optimizing cloud object storage, managing egress costs, evaluating different cloud storage for different data, replication, and cloud tiering, among others.

Don't miss this opportunity to gain a better understanding of how to get your cloud storage costs under control!
