"The Scality RING is a key part in terms of the storage – that’s where all the content exists that’s delivered to end consumers. So we’re storing all the movies and episodic content. So Scality overall has been a great technology for meeting the SLAs. So, in terms of being able to upgrade the RING, you know, while its live- you know it it’s pulling content from each of the nodes, so if one node is down you can still pull the content given the erasure coding. So, from an uptime and reliability – being able to do upgrades and being able to keep the data live all the time; it’s been a great solution. So you’re less reliant on the simple RAID groups that you get from hardware, you know. Now you have a large erasure coded content that’s spread across multiple hardware devices. So you can survive multiple hardware failures and it would be on multiple nodes, and you can ensure that your data integrity is safe. So even if you were to take down all the hardware and bring it back up, it’s the software essentially that’s maintaining the data across the disk."
"Scality is so much more than a storage supplier. By working with Scality we benefit from a professional team of storage experts that have helped us maintain leadership in this industry through innovation and with services that really help our customers."
