What is a Global File System and how do I build a Global Data Environment with Hammerspace?

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.

Breaking Down Storage Silos with a Hammerspace Global Data Environment

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.

Hybrid Cloud and Multi-Cloud NAS Storage with a Hammerspace Global Data Environment

Organizations are hungry for solutions to simplify data accessibility challenges for decentralized data and remote workers. The Global Data Environment is a software-defined solution which may be deployed on commodity bare metal servers, any virtual environment, and in the Cloud. It supports virtually all storage types from any vendor, including most public and private Cloud solutions to enable global data access from:

  • Any Datacenter, Any Cloud, Any Region, Anywhere. Hammerspace enables organizations to easily store, protect, and operate on data by automatically moving it to the best location by policy or on demand, to access compute resources, take advantage of the lowest cost infrastructure, and make files locally available to distributed workforces.
  • Applications Anywhere. Applications can access data stored in remote locations while using automated orchestration tools to provide high-performance local access when needed for processing.
  • Users Anywhere. People are increasingly working from all parts of the world. Organizations seek to grow their talent pools with access to team members no matter where they reside. Hammerspace automates and optimizes the movement of data, and eliminates the need to replicate a full copy of the files at each site, enabling the enterprise to work more efficiently and cost-effectively.

Presented by Tony Asaro, SVP Strategy at Hammerspace.

Enable a Highly Productive Remote Workforce with a Hammerspace Global Data Environment

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.
