“Right now, QF2 is the closest thing to an Apple unboxing, setup, and support experience in the storage world.”

"At DreamWorks, we are a digital manufacturer and digital media files are the core asset of our business. During the production of a major animated motion picture, we often create in excess of 500 million media files. If storage fails to perform, the creativity stalls. QF2 gives us the speed …

“When our deputies stay safe, they can keep the public safe. Our technology helps to ensure their safety and makes a hard job easier.”

“Qumulo offers an innovative approach to what people need from storage: the total visibility into what’s happening and the data analytics to troubleshoot on a file-by-file or application level. That’s something we just hadn’t seen from any other vendor.”

“Easily the number one thing that I like about Qumulo is the analytics. We can see data broken down by client and even file path, so we can drill down and see which IP address is accessing which file and what kind of IOPS we’re getting on that project. We …

“Having the HPE name behind it was helpful. My company has a strong affinity for known brands and having HPE behind it was a solid winner. We required encryption on disk for data at rest, and this was the only solution that met that need at the time.”

“We selected Qumulo because its file system gave us both the scalability and high-performance that our studio requires."

“3D takes up a lot of space and increases our demands. It’s important to have a solution that can handle every kind of workflow we throw at it and then some, is easy to manage, quick to update, and offers intuitive reporting.”

“Managing data with Qumulo is so simple it’s hard to describe the impact. It’s given us tremendous ROI in terms of time saved and problems eliminated, and having that reliable storage we can finally trust makes us eager to use it more broadly throughout the company.”

“The solution has allowed us to forge an emergency path to take very easily. Its massive rendering capability provides a level of security we didn’t have before. We know we can burst up pretty fast without any worries, which gives us and the artists peace of mind.”

Since we deployed the Qumulo File Data Platform, the game changed. The platform lets us spin up one thousand computers within minutes, not days or weeks. This advantage is just the start. We are confident we can scale to three thousand nodes."

“Different departments had different data requirements, so during peak demand times, some departments had very good speeds. Others were limited to a crawl.”

“Originally we didn’t think upgrades were going to be so easy; all we do is put the file in place and click the upgrade button.”

“For a critical digital media archive, Qumulo is the safest place I can think to put it short of directly in a backup vault. Soon we won’t need anything else but backup, high-speed virtual storage, and Qumulo."

“Data is the currency and lifeblood of scientific research. We needed to respond to the concerns of exponential data growth, how to store and present data in an intuitive and non-intrusive way, and how to manage and protect stored data without impacting daily operations.”
