Editor’s Question: As enterprises move towards multi-cloud architectures, describe an agile and cost-effective strategy for managing data storage across cloud and on-premises systems

Enterprises can leverage cloud-tiering functionalities to store critical data in private or on-premises while storing less frequented data on public cloud. This reduces the cost incurred in storing and accessing the cloud. Another strategy could be prioritising primary data on fast-access cloud storage while using cloud tiering to store redundant data. Executives from Cloud Box, Denodo, Qlik, Pure Storage, Seagate, share their perspectives.
