Internet Unie, MSP in Netherlands, Deployed Cloudian Object Storage and Amazon S3 Storage

Cloudian, Inc. has been selected by Internet Unie Services BV, one of the largest MSPs in the Netherlands, to provide its HyperStore object storage solution for a new hybrid cloud storage service.

 
Internet Unie specialises in delivering fully managed infrastructure and hosting services to enterprise customers in the Netherlands. It will utilise Cloudian’s storage system to offer a new cloud service for its customers that will enable its customers to employ both Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud storage and a Cloudian storage system located in the Internet Unie data center, and manage both as a single limitlessly scalable storage environment.
 
“This hybrid service opens up enormous possibilities for those using the AWS service cloud offerings and need to store certain data types in a private cloud, for reasons such as data governance policies. With Cloudian’s new offering on AWS, our customers can point their applications to either cloud storage or on-premises storage, and it’s completely transparent,” said Arvid Cauwels,sales director, Internet Unie. “With AWS metering now available for Cloudian storage, customers get one AWS invoice for both their public and private cloud storage usage.”
 
“Internet Unie understands that the enormous demand for Amazon S3 storage is also driving demand for on-premises cloud-compatible storage,” explained Jacco van Achterberg, sales director, Cloudian. “Customers want the best of both worlds and this hybrid offering gives them full control over their storage workloads in both the public and private cloud.”
