Sponsored Video: Velostrata welcomes you to vmworld 2016
Velostrata welcomes you to visit their booth at vmworld 2016 in Las Vegas to learn more about how they can help with your cloud and production workloads.
Founded in 2014, Velostrata provides software solutions that give enterprises cloud workload mobility. Velostrata’s founders realized that many of the issues that kept enterprises from adopting public cloud for production workloads centered around the risk, cost, time, and complexity of migrating storage. So, they asked the fundamental question, “why not decouple compute from storage?” And so was born the only company that can move production workloads to and from the cloud in minutes, instead of months, without the risk.
