Enterprises are generating exponentially-growing data and looking for cost-effective strategies for long-term backup retention and archival storage, in addition to seeking resilient, cost-effective and scalable platforms for cloud-native application data. Virtustream recently launched Global hyper scale storage cloud which is built for the world’s largest enterprises, service providers, and public sector organizations, which need to secure, manage, and store mission-critical data in the cloud. Virtustream Storage Cloud provides a hyper-scale storage platform with enterprise-class resiliency and performance. This new platform has been extensively tested, with underlying elements running successfully in production for several years as the primary object storage platform for a select set of 
customers managing multiple Exabytes of data, with hundreds of billions of objects under management and an event monitoring system that processes more than 35 billion events per day.
The new Virtustream Storage Cloud offering builds from this hardened and customer-tested base. In addition to availability as a Web-scale object storage platform, Virtustream Storage Cloud provides seamless cloud extensibility for on-premises EMC® storage, providing customers with simple and efficient tiering, long-term backup retention, and cold storage in the cloud, with single-source EMC support.
Virtustream Storage Cloud has been designed from the ground up to support a complete range of enterprise use cases.
Key features include:
– Engineered-in resiliency delivering up to 13 x 9s of data durability
– Architected and optimized for performance, particularly for large object sizes
– Available read-after-failure provides resiliency and data integrity even in case of single site failure
– Seamless extensibility of on-premises primary storage and backup to the cloud
EMC offerings that plan to support the platform include:
- EMC Data Domain: Using Data Domain® Cloud Tier, automatically move backup data directly from EMC protection storage to Virtustream Storage Cloud for seamless, cost effective long-term backup retention.
- EMC Data Protection Suite™: Tier backup data from EMC protection software to Virtustream Storage Cloud for long-term backup retention.
- EMC VMAX®, XtremIO® and Unity™ Systems: Tier data to the cloud to reduce on-site primary storage footprint while maintaining optimal performance through on premise client-side caching and Virtustream Storage Cloud.
- EMC Isilon: Archive cold data to the cloud using on premises Isilon® CloudPools policies to govern the placement and retention of tiered files to Virtustream Storage Cloud.
Additionally, organizations soon will be able to deploy Web-scale object storage for cloud-native applications, leveraging a simple, S3-compatible application programming interface.
