Aron Brand, CTO of CTERA, expanded on the benefits of caching in this area of operations, stating that it is among the most economical decisions that can be made.
“Cloud-based data centres do not provide the same performance as your on-premise data centre,” explained Brand. “By moving to a hybrid model that places some of your resources in the public cloud, you’re adding latency to the mix. Many applications that were designed to work over a LAN will operate poorly if you relocate them to a cloud datacentre that’s accessible only by WAN.
