Tony Asaro, SVP Strategy at Hammerspace, introduces the concept of a Global Data Environment. Since the advent of distributed data centers in the Enterprise, and, the advent of cloud computing and cloud storage, organizations have been trying to build architectures that span geographic distance and deliver access to best of breed innovation in both applications and infrastructure. Until the introduction of the Global Data Environment, solutions required a lot of manual processes, scripting, 3rd party tools, and proliferation of copies of data. A Global Data Environment provides users and applications with the experience of ‘local’ access to global data while at the same time providing global control for data services.

Nearly every organization grapples with the ongoing management of many different, purpose built, storage systems for enterprise application storage, high-performance storage, backup and archive storage. As IT teams look to manage growing CAPEX and OPEX, they need solutions for breaking down storage silos to both simplify data management and to make data accessible to the people and applications who need it most. Hammerspace unifies all data into a single global data environment that spans block storage, NAS, object stores, and Cloud from different vendors. The outcome is a unified data access layer to users, applications, and compute environments for all your data. Presented by Floyd Christofferson, VP Product Marketing at Hammerspace.

The way businesses work today has profoundly changed, with many companies no longer requiring their employees to work from office locations. Providing remote access for employees to have a unified view of an organization’s network shares is extremely challenging, as data is typically stored in multiple data silos spanning data centers and clouds.
Hammerspace makes network shares visible and accessible to anyone anywhere as though they were sitting next to local storage at the data center. Hammerspace also simplifies IT administration, enabling admins to globally set up policies so applications and users can access all data in the Global Data Environment. This global control of data policies and orchestration may be monitored and adapted as needed to changing requirements and resources through multiple administrative tools via the GUI, Admin CLI, Hammerspace Toolkit, or REST API. Presented by Molly Presley, SVP Marketing at Hammerspace.
