[{"type":"text","content":"Delivers Application and Data Insights for Dynamic Data Visualization, Policy-based Automation, and Seamless Mobility Across Storage Terrains\n\n\nSAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corp. (NASDAQ: QMCO) today unveiled its all-new data and storage management platform - Quantum ATFS. It is the first network-attached storage platform to integrate real-time data classification and insights with the needs of applications, determining how storage resources are allocated and consumed. Data insights enable organizations to visualize data without the constraints of a file system, automate purposeful data placement based on policies, and optimize resources using just-in-time data movement policies. The ability to support the needs of data and applications on premise or in the cloud advances Quantum's strategy to be the leading provider of management and storage services for unstructured data anywhere.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\"The engineering teams at Quantum worked with storage experts to address the many challenges IT teams face with growing storage needs. They designed an innovative and unchained solution with cutting edge technology, data provenance and analytics to provide a storage platform that works for IT, instead of IT that works for storage,\" noted Jeffrey McDonald, PhD, Director of Information Technology, The Hormel Institute.\nOptimize Storage Resources Based on and For the Benefit of DataCustomers today are performing \"unnatural acts\" to manage their data – guessing at capacity and where data lives, or crawling file systems for days to find what is needed by the business. They are often uncertain about what they can delete and when they can delete it. The results are silos of data, and a loss of control and visibility. ATFS (All-Terrain File System) meets this challenge. It is designed to ensure just-in-time purposeful placement of data, meeting the performance, resiliency, availability, and access demands of applications and workflows. As a result, ATFS delivers a consistent end user experience to deploy resources on premise or in the cloud. \nBy leveraging data classification, metadata and business-oriented tagging to streamline and optimize storage resource consumption, ATFS transforms storage economics, eliminating the premium organizations pay for performance. It is designed to manage hardware ...
