Distribution Agreement Between Cleversafe With HP in Object Storage Solution

Like Scality

Cleversafe, Inc. is now able to resell its object-based storage software platform through Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP and its partners, in conjunction with the HP ProLiant Server family.

This joint solution offers a cost-effecive way to address rapidly expanding unstructured data and archival storage needs, combining HP’s ProLiant Servers with Cleversafe’s object-based storage software, along with service and support.
 
In recent years, the amount of storage required for businesses has increased as a result of mobile, social and the Internet of Things, driving enterprises to process and store vast amounts of data reaching the petabyte level and beyond. Traditional block and file-based solutions are not optimized for storing the high volumes of unstructured data typically generated by these applications, prompting IT organizations to search for alternative architectures that better satisfy the cost, performance and capacity requirements without compromising reliability, availability or security.
 
Cleversafe’s object-based storage software platform will be available directly from HP, as well as through qualified HP channel partners. The storage density of ProLiant Servers, combined with the petabyte scalability of Cleversafe software’s platform, is designed to enable customers to quickly build and grow single-instance object storage systems that scale to exabytes of total compute capacity. ProLiant Servers form a flexible, powerful and configurable hardware platform for object-based storage solutions and can reduce the total cost of infrastructure and power, providing the performance required to manage storage at petabyte scale.
 
One company that is currently leveraging the joint HP and Cleversafe solution to manage their hyperscale data workloads is TBWA Worldwide.
 
As an international advertising agency, we are constantly producing exceptionally large quantities of high-definition video and rich image data, which can place an undesirable strain on our IT infrastructure. In addition to addressing these storage demands, we needed a solution that would enable our teams to collaborate globally – uninterrupted,” said Ted Colgate, CIO, TBWA Worldwide. “Cleversafe’s software platform combined with HP servers will provide us with the scalability, simplicity and security needed to efficiently handle massive amounts of unstructured data without limiting our productivity or causing unwanted downtime.”
 
We’re excited to partner with HP to bring an exabyte-class object storage solution to market, helping customers satisfy near-term requirements while offering the scalability necessary to future-proof their infrastructure in the face of rapidly growing unstructured storage requirements,” said John Morris, president and CEO, Cleversafe. “As a platform software company and the leader in object storage, according to IDC, for the fastest growing type of data today – unstructured content like video, photos, audio files and digital records – our goal is to maximize our ability to offer customers choice, and working with fellow leaders like HP is essential to delivering on that goal.”
 
The explosive growth of unstructured data is forcing enterprises to look at object storage solutions that are scalable, secure, and easy to manage,” said Chuck Smith, VP, business development, HP servers. “HP ProLiant servers with Cleversafe object storage allows IT organizations to reach petabyte scale with security and simplicity.
