Qumulo Launches New Pricing in AWS Marketplace

Qumulo, Inc. announced the availability of Pay-As-You-Go pricing for Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) in AWS Marketplace, a digital catalog with 1,000s of software listings from ISVs that make it easy to find, test, buy, and deploy software that runs on AWS.

This pricing removes key friction points for customers, allowing them to use CNQ immediately, with costs that scale dynamically with usage.

“With Pay-As-You-Go CNQ, customers can subscribe instantly via AWS Marketplace and begin using the platform immediately,” said Doug Gourlay, CEO, Qumulo. “Customers can scale performance and capacity dynamically as their needs evolve, allowing them to start small with AWS and expand without the need for upfront forecasting or lengthy procurement cycles.“

The new Pay-As-You-Go plan delivers flexible pricing and deployment for every customer.

CNQ offers 2 flexible consumption models:

• Pay-As-You-Go for customers evaluating cloud storage without committing to an upfront purchase. As organizations migrate data to the cloud, they can better assess costs based on actual usage.
• Prepaid Credits for customers who want to align with a pre-budgeted procurement model, or are happy to pre-pay in exchange for a discounted rate. Credits are consumed as the product is used, just like Pay-As-You-Go.

This dual-pricing model ensures that customers can choose the option that best aligns with their operational and financial goals.

Key benefits of Pay-As-You-Go CNQ include:

• Instant Deployment: Subscribe through AWS Marketplace and deploy CNQ in minutes.
• Scalability Without Guesswork: No need to predict future storage requirements upfront. Customers can start small and expand their storage footprint over time.
• Flexibility and Choice: Organizations can start with Pay-as-you-Go and migrate to Prepaid credits as required, or stay on Pay-as-you-Go.
• True Utility Pricing: Only pay for data stored or performance utilized by the minute with no need to provision either capacity or performance.

CNQ delivers cloud storage capabilities because it was designed for demanding enterprise-grade workloads, including M&E, life sciences, healthcare, and oil and gas.

Customers benefit from:

• Multi-protocol Access: NFS, SMB, and S3 support for hybrid and cloud-native workflows simplifies data and workload migration without application refactoring.
• Optimized Performance and Cost: Hot and cold storage modes, as well as performance options, allow organizations to optimize their storage platform to meet their workload needs.
• Performance Without Compromise: High-speed NVMe SSD with Predictive Caching delivers low-latency data access while reducing API charges.
• Enterprise Security and Compliance: Integrated encryption, snapshots, replication, Active Directory, and audit logging.

Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) Pay-As-You-Go is available in AWS Marketplace. Pre-paid pricing remains available for volume-based discounts for enterprise customers with predictable workloads.
