Object storage (object-based storage) is computer data storage architecture that manages data as objects, as opposed to file storage & block storage.

Object Storage

Scaling from small to 100s of PBs is one of the hallmarks of the Swarm pure object storage approach and a testament to our longstanding installations.

Scalability

Scale-out storage allows for expansion of data capacity through addition of devices that can be plugged in and configured as the need arises. 

Scale-Out Storage

Software-defined storage (SDS) is data storage software for policy-based provisioning and management of data, independent of underlying hardware. 

Software Defined Storage

Data trapped in SAN, NAS and Tape Storage silos? Move your data into Swarm Object Storage to eliminate storage silos and create an active archive.

Storage Silos

WORM (write once read many) is used in some data storage solutions (e.g., Caringo Swarm Object Storage) to ensure that information cannot be modified.

Picture Archiving & Communication System

The healthcare industry has adopted object storage as an active archive to protect data and overcome issues with traditional backup and restore technology.

Caringo Swarm Object Storage provides an active archive (limitless & seamless pool of data) with data protection, management and search capabilities.

Backup &amp; Recovery

Object-based storage (e.g., Amazon S3-compliant Caringo Swarm Object Storage) is the basis for all Cloud Storage⏤private, public or hybrid).

Cloud Storage

Caringo Swarm Object Storage uses both replication and erasure coding for flexible choice and automatic, adaptive transition between protection forms.

Count Down: 16 Object Storage Hits of 2016

Whether you are in M&E, HPC, Government, Healthcare or Education, here are 7 reasons you should consider object storage for your organization.

The rise of big data brings extremely large data sets. Caringo Swarm Object Storage stores that data at up to 75% less TCO than traditional storage.

Big Data

Big storage establishes a vast data pool (e.g., Caringo Swarm Object Storage) free of file hierarchies & restrictive load limits, accessible by HTTP.

Big Storage

Caringo FileFly provides complete, automated lifecycle management for unstructured data—from creation to preservation, on premises and in the cloud.

FileFly

Metadata is "data about data" and can be descriptive, structural, administrative, reference or statistical metadata that is auto- or user-generated.
