Cisco and Cloudian

Cisco and Cloudian
Cisco and Cloudian developed a solution that meets the challenges of scale-out storage. This solution uses
Cloudian HyperStore Object Storage software with Cisco UCS S-Series Storage Servers powered by Intel Xeon
processors. The Cisco UCS S3260 hardware platform and Cloudian's HyperStore Object solution combines
robust availability with system management control, monitoring capabilities and reporting.
The list of features, including hybrid cloud streaming, virtual nodes, configurable erasure coding, and data
compression, as well as encryption, helps set Cloudian HyperStore apart with highly efficient storage and
seamless data management. This lets users store and access their data where they want it, when they want it.
Built on a robust object storage platform for effortless data sharing, cloud service providers around the world use
Cloudian HyperStore to deploy and manage both public and private clouds, while enterprises rely on it to maintain
their private and hybrid clouds.

Infinitely Scalable on Demand

Cisco and Cloudian HyperStore offers on-demand infinite scalability, allowing you to grow your storage as
needed. As your demand grows, you can seamlessly grow your storage across multiple DCs.

Security

Cisco and Cloudian HyperStore takes safeguarding customer data very seriously. Two server-side encryption
methods (SSE/SSE-c, KeySecure) are implemented to ensure that data is protected at all times.
Cloudian HyperStore simplifies the data encryption process by providing transparent key management at the
server or node layer. This relieves administrators from the burden of having to manage encryption keys and
eliminates the risk of data loss occurring due to lost keys. Furthermore, encryption can be managed very
granularly—from a large-scale to an individual object.

Data Protection

With the ISA-L Powered Erasure Coding, Cloudian HyperStore optimizes storage for all data objects, providing
efficient storage redundancy with low disk space consumption.

Effortless Data Movement

Cloudian HyperStore easily manages your data, stores and retrieves your data on-demand (with unique features
like object streaming, dynamic auto-tiering), and seamlessly moves data between your on-premises cloud and
Amazon S3, irrespective of data size.
