By integrating different cloud platforms and tools to create a unified and flexible infrastructure, organizations can achieve Innovation. IBM and Wasabi Technologies join hands to drive data innovation across hybrid cloud environments.
Businesses can adopt a hybrid or multi-cloud strategy to run applications across multiple environments. This involves deploying applications across different environments, such as on-premises, public cloud, and edge, and managing them through a centralized management platform.
This partnership strives to allow businesses to run applications across any environment – on-premises, in the cloud, or at the edge – and enable users to cost-efficiently access and utilize critical business data and analytics in real time. This allows organizations to leverage the benefits of each environment and optimize their infrastructure according to their business needs.
“In today’s digital-first world, data can be an organization’s greatest asset – empowering them with valuable insights that can transform business. Our collaboration with Wasabi technology will allow clients to re-imagine business processes enabled by data while focusing on resiliency, performance, security, and compliance. As a result, we are helping organizations across all industries, even those that are highly regulated, uncover game-changing insights from any environment, without sacrificing security,” said Howard Boville, Head of IBM Hybrid Cloud Platform.
Both partners are committed to providing their clients with resiliency, performance, security, and compliance abilities. In addition, Wasabi hot cloud storage does not cost for API requests when they want to get their data, which Wasabi reports can assist with cost predictability for customers.
Data can be stored and accessed depending on the requirements. The hybrid cloud approach, delivered with IBM Cloud Satellite, can support customers in managing cloud object storage and workloads operating across environments from one control point, using innovative security and controls no matter where data is being collected, processed, or shared.
The Red Sox plan to leverage Wasabi hot cloud storage across its hybrid cloud infrastructure while piloting IBM Cloud Satellite to house data, including player video, analytics, surveillance data, IoT, and more, across Fenway Park and bring the flexibility and agility of public cloud services to its secured on-premises data center.
Organizations can use services from various providers to take advantage of each provider’s strengths, such as pricing, performance, and features. Multi-cloud also allows organizations to optimize their infrastructure and avoid dependence on a single provider.
“Wasabi is on a mission to store all the world’s data. Organizations storing an enormous amount of data, including sports organizations, need to be able to store it in an affordable, accessible way without being locked into a single vendor with exorbitant fees,” said David Friend, co-founder and CEO of Wasabi Technologies.
Adopting a multi-cloud strategy while focusing on resiliency, performance, security, and compliance requires careful planning, selecting cloud providers, ensuring workload portability, implementing data protection measures, monitoring and managing cloud resources, implementing a multi-cloud disaster recovery plan, and implementing security and compliance policies.
