“The RING provides true transformative innovation, with a fundamentally different way to store and manage data, transcending the limitations of storage appliances and NAS,” continued Sweeney. “Also, Scality RING software-defined storage delivers the enormous scalability that other architectures simply cannot and it runs on standard x86 servers, with no hardware lock-in, or lengthy hardware validation cycles - delivering the key advantages of cloud-hosted storage. For MediaHub, this is the future of our data management.”
Software-defined Scality RING object storage turns any standard x86 server into highly-expandable storage. It scales without limits and guarantees 100 percent availability—all while reducing cost by as much as 90 percent compared to legacy systems. Scality RING is deployed by more than 200 petabyte-scale customers around the world. It features native file protocols and high-fidelity AWS S3 API, data encryption, volume and bucket data protection, data-restorative versioning, extended location control for data sovereignty, and geo-replication for disaster recovery for customers requiring ironclad data protection.
