This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on September 26, 2017 at 2:24 pmTalon Storage Solutions, Inc. will be in attendance at Microsoft Ignite, to be held September 25-30, 2017 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL.
The company will present a case study of customer The TSK Group Ltd. at a breakout session discussing how the firm’s FAST software helped the company embrace a cloud strategy, allowing TSK to utilize the cloud as a central repository for unstructured data, easily accessed by disparate locations anywhere.
Charles Foley, SVP, Talon, will highlight how corporate partner BuildingZones managed The TSK Group’s implementation of the FAST technology. Scheduled for Tuesday, September 26, it will outline how TSK launched a corporate cloud strategy targeted at removing on-premises infrastructure in favor of cloud resources.
The session will show how the combination of Azure Storage and FAST provided secure integration into the AD-enabled enterprise, a seamless user experience, and local-like performance even when using cloud-based file shares. As a result, FAST provided TSK with a solution for moving away from a major infrastructure management burden via a caching solution that alleviated the concern about egress costs, and provided an overall cost-effective solution allowing the company to grow more cost-effectively.
