Arctera InfoScale Named a TOP 5 Enterprise SDS Enterprise Block Storage Solution by DCIG
Change is the only constant in IT. Change in infrastructure choices like the ongoing shift to hybrid cloud architectures. Change in business demands like 24-hour application service and leveraging AI to drive new growth. Change in attack methods for obtaining sensitive data or holding businesses operationally hostage. Modern organizations are rising to these new challenges with real-time application resilience and leveraging Software-Defined Storage (SDS) block storage as a foundational component of a new approach for operational continuity. SDS helps reduce storage costs, streamline data management, and most importantly, effectively protect enterprise data from cyber breach impact and downtime.
DCIG recently evaluated over 20 SDS enterprise block storage solutions, and InfoScale emerged as one of the top five in the market. This recognition underscores InfoScale’s commitment to innovation as the only full-stack application resilience solution designed to eliminate downtime and data loss for the world’s largest enterprises.
Why SDS Block Storage is Rapidly Growing
Historically, software defined storage was thought of as too complex and unnecessary. Enterprises hesitated to adopt it across the board for all applications, reserving it for specialized use cases or test environments. Today, SDS is not just viable but essential for achieving full-stack application resilience at scale. Driving new approaches to cyber resilience, derisking infrastructure changes, and protecting data across hybrid environments.
The simple key advantages:
- Scalability and Flexibility – SDS enables enterprises to scale storage seamlessly and adapt to changing workloads without cloud or platform vendor lock-in.
- Cost Efficiency – By decoupling software from hardware, SDS significantly reduces capital and operational expenditures.
- Resilience and Security – Built-in data protection features ensure high availability, minimizing the impact of cyber threats and system failures.
- Simplified Management – Centralized control and automation reduce administrative overhead while improving operational efficiency.
