If you’re interested in 840TB of object storage in 4RU with strict S3 compliance, than Cloudian’s new HyperStore 4000 appliance might be for you. Dan Frith got a look at it at Storage Field Day last month. He found the addition of “converged access” makes it interesting for anyone that needs support for file and object storage in the data center.

Dan Frith offers his take on Cloudian’s HyperStore 4000. Dan sees it as an interesting product in object storage. Instead of focusing on being “cheap and deep”, Cloudian focused on making this a smarter kind of storage. This allows governments and business to have a greater ability to verify data locality and visibility. For organizations with very sensitive restrictions on locality, HyperStore 4000 seems designed with you in mind.
