With this latest release, DDN offers the broadest range of supported interfaces to an object storage platform in the industry, enabling users from Enterprise to Academia and Research to Government, Private and Public Cloud the optimal connectivity choices for their existing datacenters. The inherent flexibility of the object storage technology that Web-scale users have trusted for years also makes WOS an attractive solution for DDN WOS partner program members to build solutions with. Businesses can implement a private or hybrid cloud strategy to manage massive data sets cost efficiently and securely, while seamlessly connecting to third-party software applications and technology partners that use the S3 API.
To help data centric organizations easily, confidently and cost effectively build out private or hybrid cloud infrastructures, DDN is announcing today the availability of WOS S3, an Amazon S3 compatible interface for DDN’s WOS object storage platform.
With the introduction of the S3 interface, DDN WOS becomes the industry’s only object storage platform with support for industry standard and DDN-unique cloud protocols including Amazon S3 for private or hybrid deployments, direct connectivity in a single name space from a GPFSTM environment for high-performance computing and data intensive users, native-REST for custom deployments in Web-scale solutions, and NFS/CIFS for legacy IT and datacenter applications.
With WOS S3, customers can seamlessly implement a broader range of software and hardware solutions to improve overall ROI and business agility by leveraging WOS object storage to roll out new services and capabilities. With a standards-based interface, customers now have plug-and-play support for the rapidly growing number of third-party ISV applications and technology partners that use the S3 API.
Trusted by major web and service providers and research organizations around the world, DDN’s industry leading WOS object storage platform offers the performance, scalability, search and global content distribution capabilities not available with legacy block or file storage systems. WOS S3 scales non-disruptively to over 5,000 concurrent sessions and more than five billion stored objects in a single, highly efficient namespace, providing significantly lower data storage management and TCO at scale when compared to competing object storage solutions.
WOS S3 helps organizations with large archives, media repositories and web data stores to easily implement a private or hybrid cloud, or transition to or from the Amazon S3 cloud, without the overhead associated with modifying existing cloud applications.
WOS S3 is highly available and fault tolerant and supports non-disruptive expansion and can survive multiple failures without interruption of availability, data loss or namespace corruption. With the industry’s broadest set of object storage protection schemes, ranging from smart replication to DDN’s ObjectAssureTM erasure coding offerings, WOS S3 enables performance and durability optimization that complies with all storage requirements.
