Our take
Modern businesses process, generate and store vast amounts of data, and this is only accelerating as companies adopt hybrid and remote work and find new ways to take advantage of the information they are accumulating. However, this data has to be stored somewhere, and as businesses scale they find they run out of room. Qumulo exists to offer an alternative to costly in-house solutions with a petabyte-scale data storage solution.
Qumulo offers a variety of cloud, hybrid and on-premises storage options, each taking advantage of the latest advances in storage technology, allowing a company to reliably scale its data requirements without costly infrastructure upgrades. Its platform also embeds a range of tools for creating workflows and applications with the file data for easy management and migration to cloud servers. This flexibility has seen Qumulo's product use by hundreds of companies from a range of business sectors including Industrial Brothers, UC San Diego SuperComputer Center and Progenity.
Qumulo has grown rapidly since its founding, experiencing 100% year on year growth through 2020 and attracting a large infusion of funding in a Series E round led by Blackrock. It has been investing heavily in its platform and technology, specifically taking advantage of increasing capabilities and decreasing costs in flash storage. As the data requirements of business only increase, Qumulo seems well positioned to continue its success streak.
