Cloud Native Qumulo on Amazon Web Services
Normalizes economics between cloud and on-premises file and object storage.
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on September 17, 2024 at 2:01 pmQumulo, Inc. announced the availability of Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
This release delivers an enterprise-proven, multi-protocol system designed to manage unstructured data with performance, scalability, flexibility, and cost efficiency. Now publicly available on AWS, CNQ is set to change enterprise data management by meeting the rigorous demands of high-performance workloads with a cloud-native approach.
Changing Data Management Across Industries
It is designed to cater to various industries, including healthcare and life sciences, M&E, higher education, financial services, and the energy sector. It also supports advanced industrial environments and Industry 2.0 use cases, making it a solution for manufacturing and technology organizations. For customers in regulated industries or those supporting federal entities, it can be deployed in AWS GovCloud, offering a secure, compliant option that meets stringent government and regulatory requirements.
“For the first time, customers can use CNQ on AWS to elastically burst performance or capacity at will, customizing the storage instance to meet dynamic workload demands,” said Kiran Bhageshpur, CTO “CNQ can be deployed within minutes and updated within seconds, enabling customers to run enterprise file workloads within their Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), with optional use of S3 intelligent tiering to reduce infrastructure costs further.”
Disrupting Cloud Data Economics
CNQ offers a transformative approach to cloud economics, priced up to 80% less than legacy file offerings. By leveraging AWS S3 for long-term data persistence, it reduces costs without sacrificing performance. Its intelligent cache management accelerates data access between object storage and compute, ensuring all data is served efficiently from NVMe. This eliminates the long-tail latencies typically associated with file transfers from S3 to temporary caches, unlocking a range of file workloads previously constrained by on-premises data centers due to performance or cost limitations.
Key Benefits of Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) on AWS:
- Simplicity: It can be deployed in minutes using a range of EC2 instance types, making it easy to get started and adapt to changing needs.
- Elasticity: Seamlessly expand and contract performance and capacity within minutes to match dynamic workload requirements without disruption.
- Scalability: Scale data footprints to exabyte levels, accommodating the growing data demands of modern enterprises.
- Durability: Benefit from the 99.999999999% durability of AWS S3, ensuring data is protected and available at all times.
- Economics: Pay only for what you use, when you use it, with optional S3 intelligent tiering to optimize costs further.
With the launch of Cloud Native Qumulo on AWS, the compant sets a new standard for cloud data management, delivering flexibility, performance, and cost efficiency. This new offering empowers organizations to fully leverage the power of the cloud while maintaining the economic advantages of on-premises environments.
