Compared to traditional, on-premises file servers, Nasuni Files for Google Cloud provides the following advantages:

• Lower cost. Nasuni Files for Google Cloud uses the Google Cloud Archive Storage class to store all file data while still providing high-performance file sharing. This storage is significantly less expensive than the storage required by traditional Windows File Servers.
• R******** cloud migration. The Nasuni Files for Google Cloud subscription includes onboarding and support for migrating customers’ first 20TB to Google Cloud. A dedicated cloud migration specialist provides the service for each customer, to assist a pain-free migration with zero hassle and no disruption to operations.
• Edge caching for fast access. The solution can be deployed in a hybrid cloud configuration with edge caching VMs located on-premises or entirely in Google Cloud using Google Cloud caching VMs.
• Simplified management. Nasuni Files for Google Cloud consolidates administration of multiple Windows File Server sites into one management console.
• Built-in backup & disaster recovery. Nasuni Continuous File Versioning® technology protects all data as it’s being written by storing all file changes as unlimited, immutable versions in Google Cloud.
• Multi-location file sharing. No limits on connections, and files can easily be shared across on-premises locations or Google Cloud regions with Nasuni’s powerful file synchronization features.
• Convert CapEx storage costs to OpEx. Google Cloud’s monthly b****** lets customers convert their CapEx costs of managing Windows File Servers to an OpEx cost, while also leveraging their Google Cloud commitments.

Nasuni Files for Google Cloud enables organizations to move their file servers to Google Cloud and pay for the service on a monthly basis. Google Cloud customers can also apply this new solution to their Google Cloud commitment. Nasuni Files for Google Cloud provides file access speeds that are equal to or superior to on-premises file servers. Nasuni’s cloud-native architecture also enables scalable file synchronization and file sharing around the globe, with no limits on connections or shares.

Andres Rodriguez, CTO of Nasuni said, “The business continuity risks and costs associated with operating and maintaining Windows File Servers have caused enterprises to seek low-impact approaches to cloud migration. With migration included in the Nasuni Files for Google Cloud monthly subscription price, we’re making it as painless and r******** as we can to move files to the Google Cloud platform and leave expensive, cumbersome on-premises file servers behind. By choosing Nasuni, our customers can drive savings of up to 70%.”
