(ent222) reduce business cost and risk with disaster recovery for aws | aws re:invent 2014
DESCRIPTION
Given the distributed nature of today's workforce, many IT organizations must support branch offices and remote sites. These multiple sites create islands of infrastructure that are necessary to meet local performance and reliability needs, but are costly to manage and increase the risks associated with distributed data. Consolidation is key to reducing costs and eliminating risks, but how do customers leverage the power of AWS as part of this consolidation? Riverbed SteelFusion is a converged infrastructure solution, encompassing server, projected storage, networking, and WAN optimization. When combined with AWS Storage Gateway, SteelFusion allows customers to connect their on-premises infrastructure to AWS. Session attendees will learn how to leverage WAN Optimization and Projected Storage technologies as part of their IT strategy to consolidate and provide disaster recovery for branch offices and remote sites.
