How to Secure Data and Integrate Applications in a Hybrid Cloud Environment
How to use MFT to simplify the transition to a hybrid cloud environment while ensuring data security and app integration
Using a hybrid cloud environment for data storage has many benefits in terms of efficiency and cost savings, but making the transition from on-premises can be difficult, with many such projects failing due to lack of planning and underestimating the difficulties. These challenges to create seamless data exchange across public clouds, private clouds, and on-site data centers range across understanding the importance of data location - which can slow uploads and cause loss of productivity - to data synchronisation or misconceptions about risk-sharing.
In this video interview with Information Security Media Group, Michael Barford, Senior Solutions Engineer, Fortra, considers the main painpoints during transition to a hybrid cloud environment as well as best practice approaches to resolve them using MFT.
This session explores:
- Integration and synchronization of on premise and cloud data;
- The importance of data location and its impact on upload speeds and productivity;
- Selecting the right cloud integration solution for your circumstances.
