Q: What is the difference between NAS and public cloud?

2024-02-22


#NAS #public cloud #FAQ

NAS (Network Attached Storage) and Public Cloud are two different storage solutions and there are some important differences between them.

  • Location：NAS is a local storage solution, usually set up in a home or office, which can be accessed through the local network. A public cloud is a remote service hosted in a remote data center that can be accessed over the Internet.
  • Storage: NAS provides local storage, usually with a large storage capacity, and can be expanded by adding hard drives or expansion units. The public cloud provides storage space in a virtualized manner that can be dynamically scaled up or down as needed, usually with a usage fee.
  • Security: NAS can be configured with different security measures, such as password protection, data encryption, etc., and is usually managed and maintained by users themselves. Public clouds usually have higher security measures and are managed and maintained by the provider.
  • Performance: Because NAS is a local storage solution, it typically has faster access and lower latency. A public cloud, on the other hand, may have higher access speeds and latency because it is accessed over the Internet.
