Abstract
Every enterprise, large and small, either consumes public cloud services today or considers doing it in the near future.
Most of them base their decisions on business aspects, such as potential competition or cost. But what if they would chose a public cloud provider based solely on their storage offerings?
All major cloud providers today offer different types of storage. At a very high level, they're all serving one purpose - storing the data. But are they all equal?
How would you compare Amazon EBS with Azure Managed Disks or Google Persistent Disks?
Are there differences among Amazon EFS, Amazon FSx, Azure and Google Files?
How simple would it be to a customer to move between the Orange, the Red and the Blue clouds - at least, from the data storage point of view?
What are the gaps, if any, with regular Enterprise storage solutions from leading vendors?
What kind of storage performance can one expect running in different clouds?
In this talk, I'll share my findings exploring major public cloud providers' storage offerings. I'll cover differences in functionality, performance, reliability - based on production experience with Amazon, Google, Microsoft and IBM clouds.
