June 15, 2010: Storage in the Cloud
Submitted by nesbts on Wed, 03/03/2010 - 11:57amSpeaker: Kevin Brown, Vice President | Sales & Marketing, Symform, Inc.
Symform’s Cooperative Storage Cloud offers small businesses a backup and disaster recovery solution that is more secure and ten times cheaper than traditional online services. The company was founded on the realization that millions of small businesses have computers with an excess of inexpensive storage capacity, power running 24x7, and unlimited Internet bandwidth – especially nights and weekends.
The Symform team has developed software that aggregates this relatively unreliable and un-trusted capacity over the Internet and transforms it into a secure and reliable global storage system. The heart of Symform’s software is a proprietary technology called RAID-96. Traditional online storage services require massive data centers that use extraordinary amounts of energy and land. Symform has created a global storage system without data centers to store data. This has never been done before. It’s efficient, inexpensive, and green.
