This solution ensures simplified management and accessibility of unstructured data while supporting performance-intensive applications such as AI training, HPC workloads, and analytics.

Key benefits of the partnership include:

Seamless Data Orchestration Across Tiers and Locations: Hammerspace’s data platform automates data movement between Tier 0, Tier 1, and object storage within a unified global namespace, spanning sites, hybrid clouds, and multi-cloud environments.

Exabyte-Scale Object Storage with Advanced Security: Cloudian’s HyperStore offers industry-leading S3 API compatibility, robust data protection, and ransomware defense, ensuring security and scalability for the world’s most demanding workloads.
