Instead, the key consideration ends up being <strong>cost<\/strong> with there being two key questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How much will this cost me to spin up?<\/li><li>How much will this cost me each month?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Every conversation with customers about operations in the public cloud always come down to cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that&#8217;s why the latest ESG analysis comparing PowerProtect Data Manager with Data Domain Virtual Edition shows you&#8217;re on a cost winner with it compared to products from other vendors. To quote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>ESG compared a deployment of the Dell Technologies solution to four top competitors in Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to validate its cost advantages. A reduction of cost of more than 80% was confirmed during ESGs analysis of multiple modeled scenarios.<\/p><cite><strong>Understanding the Economics of In-cloud Data Protection: A Dell Technologies Data Protection Solution Designed with<br>Cost Optimization in Mind<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This is quite a comprehensive analysis. It looks at a comparison between Data Manager+DDVE running in AWS, Azure and GCP against four other vendors for a variety of FETB protection sizes, ranging from 10 to 500 TB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m not going to steal the thunder from the report, so I&#8217;ll provide two links below with a strong recommendation to review them. If you are running workloads in the public cloud, you might have gone to the cloud for a variety of reasons, but now you&#8217;re there, cost is king. And this report gives you the details you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Dell Technologies Blog Post, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.delltechnologies.com\/en-us\/blog\/leading-the-way-in-multi-cloud-data-protection-efficiencies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Leading the Way in Multi-Cloud Data Protection Efficiencies<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li><li>ESG Report, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.delltechnologies.com\/asset\/en-us\/products\/data-protection\/industry-market\/esg-economic-validation-dell-emc-powerprotect-cloud.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Understanding the Economics of In-Cloud Data Protection: A Dell Technologies Data Protection Solution Designed with Cost Optimization in Mind<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NIST Cloud Computing framework defines the following essential characteristics of cloud computing: On-demand self-service Broad network access Resource pooling&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1229,1520],"tags":[230,231,1633,1634,1307,1616,770],"class_list":["post-10660","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cloud","category-powerprotect","tag-cloud","tag-cloud-computing","tag-cloud-cost","tag-cost","tag-ddve","tag-powerprotect-data-manager","tag-public-cloud"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bigStock-Aussie-Dollars.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pKpIN-2LW","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10660","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10660"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10660\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10666,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10660\/revisions\/10666"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10660"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10660"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10660"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
