Jérôme Lecat, CEO, Scality, said: "IT teams are increasingly deploying big data analytics solutions to unlock the information that powers their business. As demand rises, we continue to invest in one-of-a-kind integrations like our recent disaster recovery solution with Splunk SmartStore. Our investments are designed to give customers the most flexibility and interoperability for large-scale data analytics and management."

He adds, “Enterprise customers who depend on big data applications such as Splunk benefit from Scality being the only object storage vendor to be SmartStore ready for three distinct deployment options, including single site, two-site asynchronous replicated, and three-site synchronous writes.

“Scality's three-site synchronous architecture guarantees immediate and accurate Splunk search results even in the case of the loss of an entire site,” Levcat said

In addition to the collaboration with Splunk, Scality continues to build solutions with data analytics providers. Partners include Cloudera, Elastic, Weka and Vertica. Scality also extends its big data portfolio with Vertica Eon Mode certification. It says these partnerships have resulted in proven, validated solutions for customers, including one of the top three largest banks in the US.
