Qumulo launches Cloud Q as a Service on Microsoft Azure to expand cloud adoption

Qumulo, a data storage and management company based in Seattle announced that it has introduced a petabyte-scale archive to support Cloud Q as a Service on Azure.

This serverless technology allows Qumulo to bring a “Standard” offering with 1.7 Gb/s of throughput. Qumulo’s goal is to provide cloud file storage for 44 percent less than the current costs on Azure.

According to Qumulo, the company offers the only petabyte-scale multi-protocol file system on Azure, with support across on-prem and cloud to manage infrastructure. The company recently launched its Cloud Now program, to allow customers to build proof of concepts totaling up to one petabyte.

The future of petabyte-scale data is multi-cloud, and Qumulo is proud to be at the forefront of innovation that empowers more organizations to leverage the power of cloud. Qumulo offers a single, consistent experience across any environment from on-premises to multi-cloud, giving our customers the tools they need to manage petabyte-scale data anywhere they need to,” stated Bill Richter, CEO of Qumulo.
