The cost of using the public cloud
A Total Cost of Ownership analysis comparing AWS and VxRail


For many companies, the public cloud is an appealing option, either for companies lacking the capital and expertise to operate their own IT systems, or for organisations with existing data centres wanting more IT agility with limited risk.
