  • The service also comes with unlimited software upgrades and technical support as long as the subscription is valid.
  • System integrators provide managed cloud platform (MCP) by incorporating storage-as-a-service - in a layman term, it means that instead of selling storage servers to customers, rent it to them in the cloud.
