PRODUCTS – STORAGE – DATA DIRECT

DataDirect

DataDirect Networks, Inc. is the data infrastructure provider for the most extreme, content-intensive environments in the world—including the largest online gaming and music sites, social networking applications developers, photo and video sharing services, high performance computing environments, and more than 400 broadcast and post-production facilities around the globe.

Founded in 1988, DataDirect Networks serves customers through its global partnerships with Dell, IBM, Sony and other industry leaders. Today, with more than 160 petabytes installed worldwide, the company's S2A™ (Silicon Storage Architecture™) technology delivers massive throughput, scalable capacity, consistency, efficiency and data integrity for today’s extremely competitive and evolving markets. 

S2A Storage Systems accelerate content delivery, enable real-time collaborative workflows, and shorten design and operating cycle times.  They are commonly deployed in a range of application environments, including video and film production, computer modeling and simulation, data backup and archiving, cluster and supercomputing.  The data patterns these applications create and process contain much larger file sizes that must be rapidly transferred and processed, in addition to being stored.
