Enterprises rely on SQL databases for their business-critical applications in the cloud. Although these databases can be consumed as a service (DBaaS), IT teams can get better control and flexibility over features and security by running a SQL database in the cloud on virtual machines or containers. This can considerably lower on-prem costs, however, there’s a catch: running a SQL database in the cloud means additional time-consuming data management tasks such as provisioning storage, snapshots, backup, and DR. This can add a high degree of complexity when it comes to strict enterprise requirements.

With industry leading enterprise storage features layered on top of native cloud resources, Cloud Volumes ONTAP gives you enhanced performance for your SQL databases and automated tools for ensuring you meet your RTO and RPO requirements.
