# Cisco and Cloudian Collaborate Scale-Out Enterprise Storage

## Cisco-Certified Storage Solutions for Capacity-Intensive Application Workloads

### Meet your most demanding data needs with limitlessly scalable storage that simplifies infrastructure

**A Better Storage Solution******The exploding growth of enterprise data demands a reliable, efficient and scalable solution. Cisco and Cloudian have collaborated to combine Cloudian’s industry-leading, S3-compatible HyperStore object storage software, with Cisco’s high-capacity, high-performance UCS S-Series servers.

This solution delivers new levels of technical and cost efficiencies for today’s environments – and is ideal for backup, archive, life science, healthcare, media & entertainment, IoT, financial services, and other areas where there is massive data growth and a need for exabyte-scale storage that is affordable, highly reliable and durable. Deployed on-premises, this solution is also hybrid and multi-cloud ready. A single, global namespace ensures a unified view and control of data across all locations, including private on-premise as well as multiple public clouds.

***Cloudian HyperStore clusters running on Cisco UCS S3260 servers****Cloudian software enables S3-compatible storage from Cisco servers. Ideal for capacity-intensive workloads such as backup, archive, and media. Simple integration with public cloud (AWS, GCP and Azure) enables hybrid cloud configurations for DR.*

**Software Defined Storage (SDS)**Cloudian HyperStore software running on Cisco servers simplifies your storage infrastructure by transforming high-density servers into S3-compatible storage appliances.

Integrate seamlessly with all applications that can leverage S3 storage. Get non-disruptive, cost-efficient storage growth to meet the needs of capacity-intensive applications. If desired, data tiering or replication to the public cloud provides cost-effective DR.

**KEY SOLUTION BENEFITS**

- On-demand, non-disruptive scaling from terabytes to exabytes
- Uncompromising data durability and protection
- Reduction of storage infrastructure costs
- Single, global namespace for unified data management across multiple data centers and regions
- Flexible deployment and configuration options
