KEY FILE FABRIC FEATURES FOR SERVICE PROVIDERS
Support +60 Private/Public Clouds and Storage Providers
The solution enables end customers to use products that they already subscribe to such as Amazon S3,
DropBox, Google Storage / Drive etc. alongside data products the Service Provider offers. This is done
through the use of a global file system interface. This makes it easy for end customers to easily
migrate data to service provider data offerings over time whilst simultaneously enabling the service
provider to maintain full ownership of the customer relationship across product sets.
Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC)
Additionally, the product has a strong focus on Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) in which it
provides encryption of data, using customer keys, on any of the clouds supported. It also provides a
central point of enforcement for governance/compliance policies and the Audit of file events (such
as those required by GDPR for example) which can be stored on Blockchain Hyper Ledger’s if the
service provider has a product offering in that area.
Given the strong compliance culture that is being adopted by the European Union this can be an
added value offering that the service provider can package up for end partners to resell to end
customers.
Ransomware Protection for any Cloud and Service Provider
Lastly, the product has a focus on Ransomware protection for any of the external data clouds or
service provider data clouds it supports. The way this feature works is that files are uploaded to a
primary data store and replicated to a nominated archive data store in real-time. Consider that the
primary store could be a well known commercial provider such as Office 365 or DropBox and the
archive provider could be the service providers own data store. If a primary file is subject to a
ransomware attack the archive file can quickly be restored. This feature subset is something that can
be wrapped into the Governance and Compliance product offering or used as a dedicated product
offering for partners and/or end customers.
ABOUT
STORAGE MADE EASY®
The Storage Made Easy Enterprise File Fabric™ enables IT to regain control of
"cloud data sprawl" to unify on-premises and on-cloud files into a single easily
managed converged infrastructure with policy-based controls for governance,
audit and security.
The File Fabric solution provides a “blanket” enterprises wrap around all their
data: on premises, within public and private clouds, as well as on third-party
software vendor clouds (SharePoint Online and Salesforce for example).
Customers use the SME File Fabric product to unify corporate data to enable
workgroup collaboration with universal controls for security, encryption, audit,
and data access. Companies will have access to a greater understanding of
where and how sensitive data is stored, transferred, and accessible
with particular focus on how companies are able to police and audit data to
ensure enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) in
addition to other regional data legislation.
