As unstructured data grows exponentially, organizations are looking to migrate file-based workloads to the cloud to increase business agility, reduce cost and simplify management. But while file data often accounts for at least half of organization’s on-premises data, very little file data is stored in the cloud. There are legacy challenges that still need to be addressed to enable organizations to realize a hybrid cloud approach for their file data and accelerate this growth.

To help customers with their journey to public cloud, Dell Technologies has partnered with Google to bring to market PowerScale for Google Cloud, a fully integrated native cloud file service for Google Cloud users powered by Dell EMC PowerScale, the industry’s #1 scale-out NAS storage system.
