Cloud Builder Alliance Partners
Increasingly, cloud service providers look to customized solutions to equip their data centers and deliver the level of service their customers demand. From Facebook’s Open Compute Platform, to Netflix’s Open Compute CDN solution, cloud service providers seek builders who can deliver custom open architecture solutions that meet their capacity, performance, power, and workload requirements. Seagate works with our Cloud Builder Alliance Partners to deliver the latest innovations in cloud server and storage solutions. Learn more about our Cloud Builder Alliance Partners below.
Innovation
Seagate fosters enterprise storage innovation from being the first to market with SAS, advanced security options, and 2.5-inch hard drives, to Seagate Instant Secure Erase technology. Seagate is committed to approaching the cloud the same way – with an attention to changing customer needs, market dynamics and the evolving technology around us. Through partnering with ISVs, cloud providers and builders, ongoing innovation is key to enabling the growth of the cloud.
More about innovation in cloud storage solutions
Innovating for the Cloud
Cloud service providers are changing how data centers are designed, applications are written and delivered, IT resources are purchased and consumed, and ultimately how Seagate storage devices are used. It is critical that we understand these differences and apply them to the engineering and design of our products and, by extension, to the solutions our cloud builder Partners bring to market.
Device Innovation
In addition to innovations in areal density, performance and reliability, Seagate is leading innovation in features that enable cloud service providers to experience an overall lower total cost of ownership (TCO) through the solutions they deploy. The type or mix of storage devices used, how they are designed into a system, and to what extent they add value in terms of managing infrastructure costs, streamlining operational costs and reducing support costs.
Seagate Instant Secure Erase (ISE)
Traditional methods of retiring and repurposing drives are time-consuming, costly and-despite a data center’s best efforts-may fail to entirely mitigate the risk of a data security breach. SED technology with Seagate Instant Secure Erase provides the optimum secure solution.
Optimizing Hard Drive I/Os
Designing server and storage systems to optimize hard drive I/Os can reduce support costs associated with system performance. From hard drive seek operations, to cooling fans, alarms, buzzers and shock, to how a system is designed has a direct effect on hard drive performance. Join SPP to learn more about best practices to optimize hard drive I/O performance.
