Featured Benefits
Reduce Operational, Administrative Resources & Costs
Quantum remote and local experts proactively monitor and manage your environment, so your IT and engineering teams are free to focus on other projects.
Eliminate Unplanned Capital Spend & Forklift Upgrades
With Quantum-as-a-Service, you purchase a subscription for the capacity you need, and as your needs grow, Quantum works with you to identify and expand storage capacity.
Better Control & Security with an On-premises Infrastructure
Quantum-as-a-Service delivers the pay-as-you-grow pricing model that has made public cloud services popular, combined with the control and security of an on-premises storage infrastructure. In contrast to many public cloud storage services, our storage-as-a-service offerings don’t charge any fees for data access or egress.
Reduce Downtime & Achieve Better Performance
Using Quantum Cloud-Based Analytics software, we proactively monitor your environment, allowing our experts to optimize your environment, reduce downtime, and identify problem areas promptly.
Quantum-as-a-Service Offerings
Depending on a customer’s specific needs, any of the following elements may be included:
- Installation and Integration: Quantum will install, configure, and integrate the associated products at a customer’s data center.
- Activation of Cloud-Based Analytics (CBA) Agents: CBA agents are activated on Quantum products to upload telemetry data and logs to the Quantum Cloud at regular intervals for monitoring and analysis.
- Proactive Monitoring and Management: Once installed and running, Quantum will actively monitor and manage the environment remotely, providing onsite support when required, and in coordination with the customer.
- Capacity Upgrades: As data requirements grow over time, Quantum works with the customer to identify needs and adjusts configurations and billing rates accordingly.
