All I can say is that I am moving everything I can to cloud object storage from my Netapp because of 2 cents vs. $2 for GB of storage. Also Netapp wouldn't be my third chios on the next purchase of storage

So what do you do when you need fast local storage?

  We're looking at on-prem object storage (Cloudian on commodity hardware) and public offerings (Azure, S3) and NAS gateways. Avere, Panzura, CTERA, TwinStrata. There are several options depending on your use case. With dedup and compression, we can get on-prem pricing that is very close to cloud providers with the benefit of controlling the network end-to-end for.

"All I can say is that I am moving everything I can to cloud object storage from my Netapp because of 2 cents vs. $2 for GB of storage." Where are you getting 2 cents ? S3 is ~3 cents, glacier and nearline are 1 cents ... what are you buying that costs 2 cents ? (genuinely curious)

  got the price a bit wrong sorry. I use at my company S3 at 3c per GB and I am starting to try out Google Cloud Storage, I think that they out preforms AWS

  Google Cloud Storage's DRA - same durability, slightly lower availability SLA - is 2c/GB.

what are you doing with your storage? I don't get all this relationship between "cloud object storage" and the dawn of Netapp as stated in the storagemojo article. For me Netapp is, like said by KaiserPro, a multi-purpose system where I can do FC, iSCSI, NFS, CIFS, with HA, snapshots etc., where I can host my VMs, my Windows files, my block-access disks for Databases etc.. It's not the place were I'd just put files that I'll serve via a S3-like API interface...
