Nasuni named among top-5 hybrid cloud storage solutions

In a pair of endorsements by industry analyst firm DCIG, Nasuni, a hybrid cloud storage solution provider, has been named as a top-five solution in both the enterprise reports of Hybrid Cloud Software-defined Storage (SDS) NAS Solutions and Enterprise Multi-site File Collaboration Solutions.

An increasingly popular alternative to traditional storage infrastructure, enterprise-class, software-defined storage solutions are helping organisations manage the explosion of unstructured data by facilitating more efficient data management and file collaboration.

Nasuni's File Data Platform received special attention for its unique approach to SDS, placing the object storage at the core of its software-defined cloud-native architecture. "Nasuni's innovative hybrid cloud solution empowers enterprises to replace their complex legacy file infrastructure with a single global file system," stated Todd Dorsey, author of the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud SDS NAS Solutions report and DCIG Senior Storage Analyst.

For the reports, DCIG evaluated a variety of companies, scrutinising 29 different organisations for its Hybrid Cloud SDS NAS Solutions report and considering 26 vendors in the Multi-site File Collaboration Solutions report. The firm's research underscored notable capabilities of Nasuni's platform:

The native hybrid cloud architecture integrates with major public cloud providers and leading private cloud solutions, offering flexibility. Nasuni's patented UniFS Global File System organises and classifies file data and enables rapid recovery from ransomware attacks and disasters. Edge caching tech facilitates quick file access whilst reducing egress fees and local storage footprints. Additionally, the platform encrypts all data and metadata, situating within a zero-trust security framework and utilising Continuous File Versioning for added protection against cyber attacks. Moreover, Nasuni's Ransomware Protection service ensures swift detection and recovery from these attacks. Lastly, Nasuni offers add-on services for enhancement, including high-performance, compliant file access from any device anywhere, and consistent file locking for efficient global collaboration.

Speaking on the DCIG accolades, David Grant, President at Nasuni, highlighted the growing need for efficient collaboration amidst an exponential increase in distributed workforces and rapid data growth. "A file data platform in the cloud that unifies global file management with integrated ransomware detection, and rapid recovery, is essential to future business growth. We are helping customers power their business growth, secure their data, and increase user productivity, through a unique, cloud-native architecture that enables simple and secure global-level collaboration," he said.

The DCIG recognition caps an impressive year for Nasuni, which has seen strong customer growth, many product development strides including the launches of Nasuni IQ, Nasuni Edge for Amazon S3, and most recently, integration capabilities with Microsoft Copilot. This pattern of innovation coupled with the industry recognition received underlines the value of the company’s commitment to powering customer growth, increasing user productivity and ensuring data security through unparalleled technology.
