Qumulo Releases New Suite of Data Services

Qumulo introduced two new data services, Qumulo Dynamic Scale and Qumulo Secure, and released updates including Instant Software Upgrade to Qumulo Core, the industry's first NVMe Cached Performance as well as Qumulo Shift's new visual interface.

FREMONT, CA: Qumulo, the leading file data platform that enables organizations to easily store and manage file data so they can build as well as scale their applications with unparalleled freedom, control, and real-time visibility, has announced a new suite of data services that radically simplify managing massive amounts of file data. Qumulo introduced two new data services, Qumulo Dynamic Scale and Qumulo Secure, and announced updates including Instant Software Upgrade to Qumulo Core, the industry's first NVMe Cached Performance as well as Qumulo Shift's new visual interface.

"Radical simplicity is critical for customers to be successful with unstructured data. Our software-driven file data platform offers enterprise-level capabilities that radically simplify the process of today's digital transformation," stated Ben Gitenstein, VP of Product, Qumulo. "With the data services we announced today, Qumulo's customers can simplify the complexity of their infrastructure, accelerate innovation, and unleash the power of their data, wherever it resides."

NVMe Cached Performance: Lowering the Cost of Performance

Although many workloads, such as research computing, data analytics, and rich media content creation, benefit from low latency as well as massive throughput, access to the most performance bleeding-edge technologies has historically been available only to specialized workloads with large budgets.

Qumulo has broken this paradigm, launching the file industry's first software to offer machine learning optimized read and write cache utilizing NVMe. The intelligent cache manages data on the optimal storage media to get both cost-effective capacity and high performance. With the announcement of the latest release of Qumulo Core software and two new qualified hardware options (C-192T and C-432T), Qumulo now provides NVMe performance at the price of disk.

"The new Qumulo Core capability to use NVMe as cache enables us to meet our performance and budget needs by providing great economics from very dense hard drives combined with its great caching capabilities on extremely fast NVMe drives," stated Serkan Yalcin, Director of IT, Infrastructure Dev/Ops, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. "Qumulo's intelligent caching, without managing policies, has been great and provides even more value for us with NVMe as the caching layer. These features, combined with their great customer success experience, really empower us to focus on our mission of bringing population health data to the world."
