QUMULO LAUNCHES NEW PRICING IN AWS MARKETPLACE Qumulo, Inc., a leading provider of data storage solutions for hybrid cloud environments, has introduced Pay-As-You-Go pricing for its Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) offering in AWS Marketplace. AWS Marketplace is a digital catalog featuring thousands of software listings from independent vendors, making it simple for users to find, test, buy, and deploy software that operates on Amazon Web Services (AWS). With this new pricing model, customers can subscribe to CNQ instantly through AWS Marketplace and begin using the platform right away. The Pay-As-You-Go model eliminates the need for upfront commitments, allowing users to scale performance and capacity as their requirements change. This flexibility makes it easier for organizations to start with a small footprint on AWS and grow over time without extensive planning or prolonged procurement processes. “We are excited to offer Pay-As-You-Go pricing for CNQ in AWS Marketplace,” said Doug Gourlay, CEO of Qumulo. “This model enables customers to evaluate and utilize our cloud storage solution seamlessly, scaling resources as needed. It’s a significant step towards democratizing access to high-performance cloud storage.” CNQ now provides two main consumption models to cater to a wide range of customer needs: Pay-As-You-Go (New): Ideal for organizations looking to assess cloud storage without initial capital outlay. This model charges based on actual usage, making it highly cost-effective for businesses that are migrating data to the cloud and need to understand their expenses better as usage grows. Prepaid Credits: Suited for enterprises that prefer budget predictability or are willing to prepay for discounted rates. These credits are consumed as the product is utilized, similar to the Pay-As-You-Go model but with financial advantages for those who commit up front. This dual-pricing strategy ensures that customers can select the option that best fits their operational and financial strategies. CNQ's capabilities, enhanced by the Pay-As-You-Go model, are particularly beneficial for industries with demanding enterprise-grade workloads, such as media and entertainment, life sciences, healthcare, and oil and gas. These sectors require reliable and scalable storage solutions to handle vast amounts of data efficiently. Key Benefits of Pay-As-You-Go CNQ Instant Access: Customers can start using CNQ without delay, directly through AWS Marketplace.

Ease of Use: Simplified subscription and deployment processes reduce administrative overhead. Availability The new Pay-As-You-Go CNQ is now available in AWS Marketplace.
