Caringo is a startup software company shipping a disruptive product in the content storage space. Our flagship product, CAStor can be installed on any commodity hardware that can run Linux. We deliver the distilled OS and all the software needed to turn any commodity hardware into a storage node. A CAStor cluster consists of two or more multi-threaded symmetric nodes cooperating to store content data. CAStor clusters are massive scaleable, dynamically adaptive, self healing, and can guarantee the integrity of information stored over its entire lifetime.
Caringo's products are based on a concept called Content Addressed Storage (CAS). Caringo's CTO, Paul Carpentier, not only invented and patented CAS (marketed in its best known form Centera by EMC) but has also invented (patent pending) the next generation of CAS that we call CAStor. The interface to CAStor is an HTTP 1.1 based protocol that we also invented called Simple Content Storage Protocol (SCSP). Caringo engineering is focused on performance, simplicity and massive scalability.
CAStor will change the way people use and think about storing content. The breakout technology we are introducing to the market is filled with opportunities for many interesting advancements and variations.
