The last several years have seen tech vendors relentlessly pushing customers to store all of their data in the cloud. While it is true that cloud storage use is at an all-time high, it is also true that data does not have to reside on a particular cloud forever. Changing business needs may warrant you to bring some data back on premises. Likewise, an organization may wish to migrate its data to a less expensive cloud or implement a multi-cloud strategy. Whatever the reason, data egress plans are often thwarted by the cost of the transfer. Megacloud providers often build in data egress fees as a way of disincentivizing the removal of data. This webcast explains what you need to know about data egress. You will learn:
- Why data egress is sometimes necessary
- The dirty tricks that cloud providers use to lock you into their service
- Other things to consider before moving your data
- Alternative cloud service providers that offer transparent, predictable pricing without egress feesÂ
