Caringo and Wasabi Partnering

Caringo, Inc. announced that their Swarm object storage solution is validated with Wasabi hot cloud storage.

With the two commpanies, organizations can add a geographically dispersed DR site. The combined solution is simple to set up and offers integration. It is designed to enable BC, reduce storage costs by eliminating the need to maintain a secondary data center and to satisfy hybrid cloud requirements for organizations at a fraction of the cost of other solutions.

Swarm, market-hardened at version 11, is software-defined object storage that provides an S3-compatible, on-prem platform for data protection, management, organization and search at massive scale for unstructured data (e.g., photos, videos and files). Organizations can backup any Swarm object storage domain or an entire cluster to Wasabi for continuous built-in data protection, backup and DR. After backing up an entire Swarm domain or individual buckets to Wasabi, organizations can then restore their data to the original Swarm cluster or to a new Swarm cluster directly from Wasabi.

Tony Barbagallo, Caringo CEO, said, “Caringo and Wasabi share a common bond in storage innovation. By validating compatibility of our products, we are providing an exceptional choice for organizations looking to solve pressing data protection and access issues for unstructured data without stressing IT staff hours and budget.“

Wasabi delivers storage technology that is 1/5th the price of Amazon S3 and faster than the competition with no fees for egress or API requests. The Caringo+Wasabi storage solution is for organizations that want to keep data on-prem but also want an off-prem copy in an S3-compliant cloud storage service.

“The partnership with Caringo helps empower organizations to seamlessly move to the cloud via a hybrid model with ultimate data protection and organization for things like photos and videos that can take up a huge amount of space. By providing instant backup to the cloud, businesses can restore their data in almost any configuration they’d like at a fraction of the cost of other services,” said David Friend, CEO, Wasabi.
