We have all done it and will continue to do it; upload content to Dropbox without thinking about the sensitivity of the information or location of the data. For many months businesses having been looking for ways to offer the enterprise Dropbox to maintain governance on access and data.
Citrix Systems is giving back to business some control over personal cloud-based storage with ShareFile StorageZones, which allows user content to be stored in enterprises' own data centres. Users will still access their content the way they are used to.
Enterprises can choose between what Citrix calls customer-managed StorageZones that place data in the organisation's own data center, and Citrix-managed StorageZones, which are available in seven locations around the world.
Working in conjunction with customer-managed zones, StorageZone Connectors are designed to let IT staff create a secure connection between the ShareFile service and user data stored on enterprise networks.
Citrix has also announced plans to add Citrix-managed StorageZones on Microsoft's Azure cloud in 2013.
Next year Citrix will also start shipping the ShareFile StorageZones MPX Appliance. It will have integrated security and network optimisation, and also will be designed to simplify integration with existing storage environments.
This combined with CloudGateway should become central to your mobility plans. Need to know more then contact us.
