Our take
The rapidly growing demand for machine learning infrastructure, AI tools, and other data-driven technology is pushing the limits of the data storage systems that form the tech stack of enterprises. Companies must constantly stay on top of their storage, whilst also having to guard it through data protection and cybersecurity software.
INFINIDAT provides a data storage and protection platform for enterprises, offering a cloud data storage system in addition to data protection tools, all designed to be optimised for multi-petabyte scalability and easy to integrate with any existing data storage, protection, and backup stack.
Whilst many enterprises are apprehensive to migrate towards a petabyte-ready cloud-based data system and rely on legacy tools, INFINIDAT has recognised that this is primarily due to the associated complexities, removing such obstacles with a ‘set it and forget it’ approach to its platform's setup processes.
INFINIDAT has been recognized as a top performer in the space, with its comprehensive and award winning suite of enterprise storage solutions. And it continues to enhance its offering with new products and capabilities.
