Unparalleled Accessibility

• Transparent reachability for a remote user into large datasets anywhere, whether in the cloud or located in an enterprise data center thousands of miles away
• Processing or editing of data remotely by keeping it in-place without downloading, copying, pre-caching, pre-staging or having to wait for a data transfer to complete
• Transfer of data only when required for transfer-based workflows (e.g., backup, cloud ingress or egress) and certain application scenarios (e.g., AI/analytics)

Cost Savings and Control

• 50-86% reduction in secondary data copies resulting in substantial cost savings
• Efficient access for local and remote collaboration ensuring better control and security of valuable data assets
• Zero data loss (RPO) with near-zero downtime (RTO)

Efficient and Transparent

• 5–44x faster data replication across any distance without needing any pre-processing
• 12x improvement in data migration into and out of data centers, colo or multi-clouds
• No application rewrite – Seamless integration into current automated workflows
• No client software – Ease of operation and maintenance
• File shares with industry-standard interfaces – Easy integration into existing IT infrastructures
