Virtual Drive for Swarm Scale-Out Hybrid Storage From Caringo

Caringo, Inc. announced Drive, a virtual drive for Swarm Scale-Out Hybrid Storage, which they demonstrated at SC17 in Denver, CO, along with their product line.

Once Drive is installed on macOS and Windows systems, customers have convenient access and can drag and drop files to Swarm with background parallel transfer. This speeds content uploads and provides simple drive-based access to Swarm from applications.

Swarm eliminates storage silos by turning standard server hardware into a limitless pool of data resources delivering continuous protection, multi-tenancy and metering for chargebacks. HPC customers are able to offload data from primary storage and enable collaboration while reducing storage TCO by 75% and scaling to hundreds of petabytes.

Tony Barbagallo, VP, product, said: “Many organizations like Argonne National Laboratories and Texas Tech University trust their storage infrastructure to Caringo Swarm to provide infinite expansion across multi-vendor, local, and cloud-based storage. They use Swarm to store, preserve, and protect data generated in dispersed locations to facilitate in-depth research, drive technological breakthroughs, and support thousands of staff, researchers, and students around the world. With Caringo Drive, we expand our toolset to empower our customers to easily manage their Swarm cluster.“

In addition to showcasing their complete product line at SC17, the company will offer a no-cost, full-featured 100TB licenses of Swarm Scale-Out Hybrid Storage for qualified (HPC customers.

The 100TB license promotion and integration consultation is available to qualified HPC and Education organizations. Interested parties can visit the website.
