Information
Are you happy with the amount of money your organization spends on storage? Does your organization have a suitable level of understanding of the file content stored in your file systems, tape archives, and object stores? Do your users manage their file content and use storage resources wisely? Is it easy for you to manage the life cycle and curation of your files from creation through publication and reuse? Would you describe your file environment as well-managed?
If you answered NO to any of these questions, chances are you could benefit from Starfish. Starfish combines a massively scalable file and metadata catalog with a scale-out automation engine and data mover. You get tremendous insights into your file storage AND the ability to action on anything you discover. You can even involve your users in managing their own data!
Starfish solves traditional storage management problems such as archive, backup, migrations, cost recovery, and data cleanup. Starfish also solves challenges related to the actual file contents, such as FAIR data management, scientific instrument data pipelines and workflows, data classification, and AI/ML training and inference workflows.
Starfish's customers include some of the top supercomputers in the US Department of Energy as well as the many of the leading research universities in the USA.
