Quantum Corporation - ActiveScale Z200 All-Flash Object Storage
Category Storage
Unstructured data—imagery, video, audio files and more—has continued to grow exponentially across industries. AI, in particular, is driving the need for more data to be retained, and as Media & Entertainment (M&E) organizations increasingly look to implement this technology, they will have to revisit how they collect, manage, and store their data. AI has introduced a new level of speed and efficiency which could potentially revolutionize the way M&E agencies function, bolstering production processes and resulting in faster workflows. However, this is only possible if organizations have data accessible and readily available to train AI models and to analyze.
ActiveScale Z200 broadens the existing ActiveScale portfolio, the industry’s only object storage platform architected for both active and cold data, with an all-flash solution to help customers accelerate mission-critical AI pipelines and massive content workflows. ActiveScale Z200 provides customers with unmatched speed and agility for building massive content repositories and storage clouds needed to optimize and run AI pipelines, power other data-intensive workflows, and repurpose content for future use. Moreover, ActiveScale Z200 enables customers to perform high-performance analysis of content and other data sets to help achieve quicker insight and innovation and to repurpose more quickly. This solution delivers up to five times greater throughput (gigabytes per second) and nine times more transactions (objects per second) over traditional hard drive object storage solutions, accelerating time-to-value to meet the needs of fast content production.
ActiveScale Z200 is uniquely positioned to enable customers to navigate and analyze the influx of content and other data sets in a way that is fast and accessible while also cost-effective and secure. It meets the requirements of a variety of demanding M&E workloads that need to process and densely store content metadata in a fast flash tier that can be searched, while the content itself resides in cold storage to reduce overall footprint and cost.
