David Flynn, Founder and CEO of Hammerspace, presents the “storageless data” concept at Storage Field Day 21. He discusses data gravity, serverless compute, and how these relate to the storageless data concept. Data today exists in corporate datacenters, public clouds, and edge sites, and modern data cannot be bound to specific hardware, protocols, or locations. A storageless approach must be a global data storage manager that is multi-vendor, multi-protocol, and provides a metadata service, direct data routing, and objective-based data orchestration, and provides data universally, across different data centers and protocols.

Douglas Fallstrom, VP Products, discusses deployment of Hammerspace in Amazon Web Services (AWS). Hammerspace can easily be deployed in AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in the cloud with full automation. In this demonstration, Hammerspace is deployed using Amazon Cloud Formation in 15 minutes across three locations. He then demonstrates the Hammerspace dashboard, showing multiprotocol access to storage across the global file system, replication of metadata, creation of data, reading and writing across sites, adding a shared volume, and adding another location. Hammerspace CEO David Flynn also joins the discussion for a whiteboard discussion with the Storage Field Day delegates, discussing multi-site data access.
