An Intellyx Brain Candy Update
Much like the ultra-resilient Hydra monster that would sprout two new heads for every one it lost in Greek mythology, Panzura’s data management platform fights downtime, latency and ransomware through mirroring and caching of data across its Hybrid IT fabric of nodes, with very fast failover and restoration from backup.
With so many aspects of our application infrastructure in constant flux due to the advent of cloud and service-based architectures, CDOs and CIOs were wishing that file storage and data management was something they could buy more NAS capacity for and forget.
Since our last coverage of Panzura in 2018, the enterprise potential for data loss and performance problems when everything connects to everything has only increased. This is now leading secure data management back to the forefront of IT concerns – toward serving the customer needs of data observability, compliance and a responsive posture to ransomware.
Their CloudFS platform takes a global manifest of disparate unstructured data stores and their provenance, recording snapshots at desired time intervals and allowing data owners to see analytics and set policies down to the individual file level. Data managers can then take action with flexible hybrid cloud storage provisioning, failover data services, and automated recovery capabilities in the case of any interruptions or breaches.
Oh, and the logo is way cooler now.
