[Pasig-discuss] Hybrid cloud - HDS, DELL, others?

Wed Jun 7 11:34:18 EDT 2017

Hi Gail,
This sounds like something Starfish would be perfectly capable of handling.  We
recently won best in show at Bio IT World, thanks to our metadata tracking
across heterogenous environments including terrestrial and cloud, our policy
engine, and our gateways into object stores including S3, any Swift interface,
and Oracle Cloud to make moving and tracking files/objects in and out seamless.
Happy to setup a call to discuss further.
Best,
Enrico Palmerino |  Managing Director|

Gail,

Preservica can be installed on-premise then a storage policy created that uses
the metadata to decide which objects are stored where. The options for storage
adapters include local disk storage via a mount point. Amazon S3, Amazon
Glacier, Oracle Cloud Archive, Microsoft Azure, a remote Secure FTP drive and a
few others. 

The metadata can dictate the storage adapters in a large range of ways, for
example certain confidential collections  held locally and the rest in Amazon
S3, or presentation manifestations of files on local disk or S3 and the digital
master preservation copies kept in Glacier. You could also tell it to put an
additional copy of everything in Oracle Cloud Archive.

This storage policy option is also used in our Cloud Edition hosted in AWS and
the SFTP adapter is often used to write an additional copy to a remote, or even
local, location or to split the collection between S3 and Glacier. 

Because Preservica also provides all the ingest processing, data management,
integration APIs, online access and file format migration tools you would expect
in a complete DP solution this may be overkill for your needs.

Hi Jon, please do send info. There are some front-end apps, so in this situation
this is pretty much tiered storage that we're looking for with cloud as part of
that tier.

Gail,

Is it just storage you are looking for or a complete DP solution? Preservica can
be set up to do exactly what you describe, using a storage policy that uses
metadata to decide what is stored where, and we have several customers using
this to split the collection between local and remote storage.  Of course they
also use all the other things a DP solution can add including ingest tools,
metadata management, access and format migration. 

I’ll be in touch to send more information.

Hi all, I'm trying to find the right solution for a customer use case where a
subset of digital content and its metadata are stored locally (on premise) with
another subset of data (and possibly copies of the on-premise local data) are
stored in a public cloud. Since the public cloud will most likely present S3
interface/API I'm considering gateway products that can do the protocol
conversion for the apps front-ending the data storage.

If it were a large digital collection I'd be quite serious about HDS' HCP and
S10 object storage - but this is just 25 - 50 TB total.

If anyone on the alias has a similar setup, or is a vendor and wants to contact
me, I'd like to get some pricing/config and use case info.

Thanks

Gail
