### NTT’s collaboration with Cloudian and HPE for storage services

- Barun Agarwala, Enterprise Architect, NTT

NTT is standardized on software defined resources on HPE hardware. This deployment is currently 1 petabyte of storage.

### Cloudian benefits cited include:

- Start small on 3-node and scale without disruption
- Fully peer-peer architecture
- Multi-tenancy, for secure access by tenants
- S3-compatible API
- Quality of Service controls to ensure SLAs
- Future proof, with the ability to later add nodes with updated technology
- Use Cloudian APIs to provision and configure storage within NTT’s automation framework

### Common use case:

- Backup target.- “This provides better backup SLAs and fast recovery, while providing offsite storage for DR.” - “With tape, it takes time for tapes to be transported offsite, and then called back if needed.”

### Future:

- Geo-distribution of storage
- File-based storage services

### Partnering with HPE and Cloudian:

- “HPE was an excellent partner, providing good advice on hardware and software.”
- “Cloudian has also been a very good vendor. They helped us with design, with the delivery, and are still with us in the operations phase.”
