A research report published by IT Brand Pulse finds that 25 percent of storage spending is now OpEx, and forecasts this will grow to 50 percent by 2020 and 80 percent by 2023. The Zadara Summit 2018 is packed with presentations about storage industry trends from leading analysts, customer implementation success stories, and valuable best practices for deploying and selling the Zadara Storage Cloud solution. This unique solution delivers enterprise-grade STaaS in the cloud and on-premises using Zadara VPSA® block, file and object storage services. Hybrid deployments of the Zadara Storage Cloud include both public cloud VPSAs and private On-Premises-as-a-Service (OPaaS) VPSAs.
