as much as one-sixth of the cost of either traditional in-house storage or
public cloud storage.

Scuderia
Toro Rosso Team Principal Franz Tost, says: “Acronis came on board in the
middle of last year. Not only do we have to ensure that our data is protected
and safe, we also want to access any part of it almost immediately in some
situations, for example, when it comes to making a snap decision relating to
race strategy. As leaders in hybrid cloud data protection, Acronis is able to
meet both those requirements.” ​
