In this podcast, recorded on 9 October 2017, Chris and Martin chat to Kieran Harty, CTO and co-founder at Tintri. The discussion covers the requirements for private cloud and in particular how storage should be deployed in private cloud environments. Kieran highlights how Tintri has adapted their all-flash and hybrid arrays to meet the needs of organisations looking to transform to private cloud operations.
During the podcast Kieran mentions Tintri Scale-out. Details can be found here. Chris mentions the HPE 3PAR paper on private cloud storage, which can be found here.
