Software-Defined Data Fabric for the Hybrid Enterprise

Future-Proof your Data Layer




Hybrid Enterprise Data Layers Are Increasingly Complex and Insecure

Enterprises often find it challenging to keep up with the rapid proliferation and availability of various on-premise and cloud storage solutions across the organization. The result is an increasingly complex, difficult to secure, and often expensive vendor-locked ecosystem.

How StorageFabric™ Unifies and Secures The Hybrid Enterprise Storage Layer Painlessly

StorageFabric is the highest-performance least-friction data layer to unify, protect, migrate, and commoditize storage: in-cloud, on-prem and legacy.

It is a customer-hosted global scale-out software platform that enables enterprises to integrate, protect and unify tens of on-prem and in-cloud storage providers. It seamlessly offers unified virtual namespaces through standard APIs to enterprise users world-wide. StorageFabric frees the enterprise from expensive vendor lock-in and integration complexity, while handling the significant security vulnerabilities that come with the cloud.

Whether on-prem or in the cloud, enterprise applications and users can now focus on business logic and let StorageFabric handle the difficult bits including inter-system integration, API incompatibilities, data migration, security and integrity, vendor lock-in, etc. A full scale-out architecture enables ultra-high performance with multi-Tbps speeds.

At the end of the day, all data is fully protected even in the case of a cloud breach. The enterprise has gained unprecedented agility, costs have been slashed, and storage vendor lock-in has all but disappeared.

Case Study

Learn how StorageFabric™ solved significant integration challenges for a Fortune 25 enterprise while also saving them tens of millions. In this short video we briefly explore their path to modernize on-prem infrastructure while looking forward to increasing cloud adoption.

Major Challenges

The enterprise was faced with a veritable spaghetti of interactions between tens of legacy systems and newer tech: a dozen underlying storage systems with different APIs, handling resource provisioning, identity management, access control, logging, metering, billing, charge-back, archival and backups, as well as enforcing a wide range of enterprise policies etc. Once cloud adoption rolled in, this was compounded by the significant increase in vulnerability surface and the requirement to enforce cyber policies enterprise-wide as it extends or bursts into the cloud. Finally, the architecture needed to securely and reliably scale across many lines of business.

With just a few nodes, StorageFabric can handle multiple Terrabit per second throughput. This is 10-15x faster than typical stacks. Enterprise-wide footprint is near-zero, full scale-out redundant, and extremely easy to deploy e.g., in 3 minutes even for global multi-continent deployment.
