This is the second consecutive time that Hammerspace has been
recognized by FMS. In 2023, it was awarded “Most Innovative Memory
Technology” in the Storage Management Software category.
Hyperscale environments have strict performance and high
availability requirements, plus they need to avoid vendor-lock by
adhering strictly to open standards for software and having a
choice of hardware platforms.
Hammerspace’s Global Data Platform addresses these requirements
with a software-defined solution that is tightly integrated with
standards-based features contained within Linux. Hammerspace
provides the extreme performance needed for GPU-based, artificial
intelligence (AI) and deep learning (DL) use cases, leveraging open
standards, commodity infrastructure, and standard Ethernet.
“Many hyperscalers build their infrastructure around open
standards and commodity hardware to facilitate integration with
other hardware and software solutions,” said Jay Kramer, Chairman
of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors
Inc. “We are proud to recognize Hammerspace as a standards-based
software-defined storage and data orchestration storage management
software solution.”
