Delphinus Runs HubStor to Archive and Protect Mission-Critical Data in Cloud

HubStor Inc. announced that Delphnus Medical Technologies, Inc. uses its solution to securely archive unstructured data in the cloud.

Specializing in medical imaging development requires Delphinus to generate and store large volumes of data, including both raw and processed data. The medical imaging files they must preserve, formatted to the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard, average three to 4GB in size.

HubStor’s software cloud enables storage for their two office locations, in Michigan and California, with deduplication across both sites. Delphinus routinely archives large data sets into the cloud with HubStor and uses solution’s bandwidth throttling feature to control the network impact of ingress during peak and off-peak hours.

The solution enables Delphinus to avoid adding more capital-intensive storage infrastructure to keep up with the company’s storage needs, and there is less data to backup on-premises. Delphinus has used the HubStor’s solution since September 2016. With 50TB currently ingested into the HubStor service, they are seeing a 52% reduction in storage from deduplication and compression. Delphinus anticipates ingesting another 100TB into their HubStor tenant this year.

“With our unique requirements and the large amount of data we manage, local storage was not working and most cloud-based solutions were too expensive and cumbersome,” said Cia Hang, manager, IT, Delphinus Medical Technologies. “HubStor provided us the advantages we needed: storage and access to large data sets across our office locations, scalable operations that meet our growing demands, and functional ease that is both convenient and secure.“

In the cloud, company’s data-aware storage experience empowers the IT team at Delphinus with analytics that allow them to understand and manage their storage footprint. In the firm’s solution, all data, access rights, and activities are automatically profiled for on-demand insight. Storage savings from deduplication and compression are graphically displayed; ingress and egress activity are charted visually as well. Using the solution’s chargeback feature, the IT team can identify and report on storage demand related to different projects and retention requirements.
