Fast, Cheap, and Good: Cases for local storage in an age of cloud

​Join John Crone (Synology) and Noah Landow (Macktez) for an informal conversation between a leading Technology Solutions Firm and the leading storage vendor, Synology, about the world of storage, on premise, cloud, and how it really fits together. In this post Covid remote work world, we often hear the story that everything is moving off premise to the cloud --  But like you we’re still finding environments in which local storage is critical part of the solution. 

​Examples include projects with a high available one-time budget but minimal commitment to a high ongoing OpEx spend; low-cost retained archives for former staff or projects for compliance, legal, or reference; long-term retention of surveillance footage; and high resolution video and photography for creative, web, social, and post production.

​Join us at the Macktez office, after work, over light snacks and sips, for a conversation to explore how the constraints of in person, on premise can be addressed: from heat and sound (in offices, both shared and dedicated spaces), a wide range of physical spaces (from racks to shallow racks, to shelves and tucked in corners), and at a range of price and performance that work for small and medium business.
