Storage as a Service FAQs
Storage as a service (STaaS) is a model where the cloud service provider subscribes storage on a monthly basis to their customers.
Simply determine how much storage you require and what you’re trying to achieve (simple backups, DR etc). From there we will assign that to your company and link via the method you require.
Some of the popular use cases for STaaS are; production storage to supplement cloud compute, Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), and Backup services.
With Production Storage, this is simply linked to your hosted servers to act as your main storage source. DRaaS typically also uses Production Storage as it’s designed to be used in the case of an emergency to continue business operations without slowing performance. And lastly, backup services would typically use the backup/archive storage tier, where you will offload your on-site and/or cloud data to another location in the cloud.
