Utah Department of Technology Services Deploys Cloudian Object Storage With Rubrik

To help state agencies cut storage costs by "up to 75%"

Cloudian, Inc. announced that the Utah Department of Technology Services has deployed its HyperStore storage appliances, resulting in cost savings of up to 75% when compared with traditional SAN and NAS storage.

Installed in conjunction with a Rubrik, Inc. data protection system across three data centers, the Cloudian appliances employ geo-distribution to achieve a 33% improvement in storage efficiency.

Managed by the enterprise virtual infrastructure team for the State of Utah, the Cloudian system provides a backup data repository for the team’s Rubrik data management platform. This repository includes 2.8PB of storage on 24 appliances that are interconnected in a single storage fabric to provide a consolidated view of data.

Compared to the team’s previous storage tiering solution, the Cloudian system has increased throughput with the ability to employ parallel data transfers across multiple nodes simultaneously. Company’s erasure coding feature allows data to be striped across multiple sites for fault tolerance, rather than replicated, resulting in the increased storage efficiency.

Government agencies must manage rapidly expanding data volumes within a fixed budget, a challenge that legacy platforms simply cannot meet,” said Jon Toor, CMO, Cloudian. “Cloudian and Rubrik together provide innovation that helps customer like the State of Utah deliver the triple win of increased service levels, greater data availability and reduced operating costs.

In addition to data protection services, UT’s enterprise virtual infrastructure team also offers storage services. Users are charged for the cost of storage services delivered, meaning that those employing the Cloudian object storage system can see and benefit from the 75% savings over traditional block storage options.

Over the coming months, UT will also expand storage capacity into a public cloud deployment. Because Cloudian is S3-compatible, organizations can extend to a public cloud using the company’s integrated data tiering and data replication features.

The State of Utah deployment is the latest example of how Cloudian is helping governments meet their growing storage needs.

Earlier this year, Cloudian announced that the California Department of Technology is using its object storage technology as part of the department’s storage-as-a-service offering.
