It can be a challenge moving mission-critical databases from an on-premises data center to the cloud and getting the performance (IOPS, throughput, latency) these databases need. Most times, the databases end up overprovisioned. The average is 30% overprovisioned, but we’ve seen as high as 70-80% to get the performance these databases need in the cloud. Worst case, a company’s mission-critical applications and the databases supporting them cannot be moved to the cloud due to performance limitations. 

There is a better way! 

Using a virtualized data platform that sits between your databases and cloud storage infrastructure, you can utilize a shared compute pool and get 5-10x faster performance and consistent sub-millisecond latency compared to native cloud alone. The platform is enterprise-ready and can support tier 1 workloads. Resources are shared across workloads for maximum efficiency. It also comes equipped with enterprise data services, including thin provisioning, data reduction, and instantaneous, zero-footprint snapshots.
