Hammerspace: The Global Data Environment

People need data where and when they want it. It sounds simple, but in reality, the enormous amounts of decentralized data in distributed infrastructures, multiple data centers, data center clusters, multiple clouds, and multiple cloud regions make this an extremely difficult task. Hammerspace is solving this problem with a software solution that brings the data into a global high-performance parallel file system and makes the data available in a single namespace to remote users and applications. They are also creating a more nimble environment for the user with user-generated metadata and the ability to initiate file protection and recovery while staying inside IT security guidelines.

Molly Presley, SVP Marketing with Hammerspace, joined Mike Matchett, Analyst with Small World Big Data, to discuss how Hammerspace is eliminating the deep, dark storage corners and using metadata to deliver users and IT the data they need anytime, anywhere.
