New scalable storage solution to cope with the data explosion
It's reckoned that as much as 90 percent of the world's data has been created in the last two years. That's not only a frightening rate of expansion, it's a problem for IT administrators who need to think about storage on a much larger scale.
Storage specialist PROMISE Technology is launching its latest VSky A-Series product aimed at overcoming the limitations of existing storage solutions.
The VSky A-Series offers businesses massive scalability and reliable architecture that allows them to scale, access and archive at petabyte volumes. This makes it an ideal storage platform for backup/archiving, media editing, video surveillance, virtual environments and content delivery.
It provides a single infrastructure with scale out capability for object, file and block level storage. As an all-in-one storage solution the VSky A-Series overcomes the complicated issue of managing different storage systems and can deliver data protection and NAS and iSCSI SAN functions via a single management interface. PROMISE can also offer the flexibility to select each storage interface separately to meet the demands of users only requiring either object, file or block-based access.
"With the amount of video, pictures, audio, and email growing exponentially, enterprises need a solution to manage the enormous challenge of data growth," says James Lee, CEO of PROMISE Technology. "Scale-out storage is increasingly the answer for enterprises that are buried under massive volumes of data stored on a variety of hardware and software. With VSky A-Series we are offering an all-in-one software-defined storage solution that enables users to manage huge amounts of data with greater cost savings, scalability, flexibility and simplicity".
The technology will be on display at Cloud Expo Europe in London this week or you can visit the PROMISE website for more information.
