Replicating Cohesity views (file shares) to the cloud and between clouds
The ability to re-use your data in different locations is key to unlocking value from that data. Michael Letschin shows us how easy it is to replicate from an on-premises Cohesity cluster to a Cohesity cluster on Azure and then make a copy of a Cohesity View available in Azure. The same function is available regardless of the cluster location, on-premises, Azure, GCP, or AWS.
