Scalable Secure Object Storage Adoption

Key Points

  • The company handles vast amounts of unstructured media data (hundreds of terabytes to petabytes) and needs a storage platform that can scale for future growth.
  • After evaluating many enterprise and newer object‑storage vendors, they selected a young, agile provider whose technology and culture aligned well with their own.
  • Security was a non‑negotiable criterion, and the chosen solution demonstrates security built into the development lifecycle and product design.
  • Deployment is straightforward—using commodity hardware, RESTful APIs, and simple plug‑in integration—allowing rapid expansion and close collaboration to tailor the product to their specific needs.
