According to Gartner’s recent survey Cloud Is a Viable Option, But Not a Top Consideration for many CIOs. The survey results show that only a small minority of enterprise CIOs prefers public cloud. One of the main obstacles for the large enterprise is the investment into the existing infrastructure. While this is by and large the case across the world, another Gartner analyst mentions that cloud is still in an early maturity phase, especially in Europe, and suggested European enterprises to familiarize themselves with cloud architecture by setting up private clouds first to evolve their thinking to overcome resistance to cloud.

CIOs are thus increasingly looking at solutions that provide deployment options that can leverage existing infrastructure as well as have the flexibility to be deployed in cloud - including a hybrid model such that some components are deployed on-premise and some are in cloud.

Vaultize provides the industry's widest set of deployment options. It is available as a hosted service on Vaultize public cloud (deployed in Amazon Web Services and MSP partner data centers), or on-premise (single server or scalable private cloud), or a series of purpose-built appliances.

All Vaultize deployment options also provide the choice of storing data in cloud storage services like AWS S3, Azure Block Storage and Rackspace Cloud Files; this allows our customers to host servers in-house but keep encrypted data off-site.
