Rapid Storage Connect: 4-Wk Imp

SHI International Corp

SHI's Rapid Storage Connect for Azure service enables customers to have multiple choices to backup and recovery data, both on-premises and in the cloud.

Backup software continues to have deeper integrations with cloud storage. Due to lower TCO, consumption-based pay-as-you-go billing, and scalability, cloud storage is a fast-growing and increasingly viable option for backup storage and long term retention. With Rapid Storage Connect, we'll connect on-premise backup software to Azure for the purposes of data backup and retention. Our solution supports Cohesity, Commvault, Rubrik, Veeam, Veritas and many more.
