The Economics of Cloud and Object Storage
Many infrastructure designers in the media and entertainment sector are coming from a long-standing reliance on physical media for long-term data storage and archival preservation. The widespread transition to object storage, be it via storage-as-a-service from a public cloud vendor or investment in a private cloud solution on-premises, presents a new set of questions and considerations not just for workflows for also for cost modeling and financial projections. In this discussion, we will cover the economics of cloud storage in both OPEX and CAPEX examples as well as look at the true cost-of-ownership for legacy data storage options like LTO tape libraries.
