PANFS
Delivering Data Management at Scale
High performance computing (HPC) environments tend to be large and quite complex. The quantity of data and the access performance required to keep all those computers busy demand storage solutions that not offer the highest reliability, scalability, and performance but also tools that provide organizations with comprehensive and easy-to-use data movement and data protection at scale.
The PanMove™ family – PanMove Advanced, PanMove Backup, PanMove Archive, and PanMove Sync – all part of the Panasas PanFS® software suite, delivers the ideal balance of simplicity and functionality to solve your data management challenges. Combined with PanView Analytics, users can discover, search and analyze their data files to mobilize them where and when it is needed.
DATA MOVEMENT AT SCALE
Data movement wherever and whenever needed with adjustable data transfer speed by simply adding or removing data movement engines.
SECURE CLOUD
STORAGE
Encrypted data movement between on-prem and cloud for storage, processing, and archiving.
S3-INTERFACE OBJECT STORAGE
High-performance data movement, backup, and archive with any on-prem or cloud-based storage with S3 access.
SEAMLESS DATA
MOBILITY
Data mobility that is both performant and secure, while ensuring data reliability and integrity for today’s converging HPC with AI/ML workloads.
DATA
PROTECTION
Protect large volumes of business-critical data minimizing backup windows and fast production recovery, plus free up expensive storage space with policy-based archive.
SIMPLE AS DRAG AND DROP
Easy-to-use web user interface with powerful features including setting policies, running jobs and tasks, and managing storage and users.
Your Data, in the Datacenter and in the Cloud
Driven by the increasing convergence of traditional HPC workloads with AI/ML workloads, unstructured datasets continue to grow, and data management has also increased in sophistication. Fast, secure, and reliable data movement and data protection between ActiveStor® storage bladesets in datacenters, at the edge, and in private and public clouds require innovative and advanced mobility solutions like PanMove.
PANMOVE™ ADVANCED
Seamlessly copy, move, and sync data on-demand between Panasas ActiveStor bladesets even in remote datacenters, between Panasas storage and AWS, Azure and Google Cloud object storage, and between Panasas storage and any S3 object store. Cost-effectively reduce data movement time and complexity. PanMove Advanced is the result of a collaboration with Atempo and the Miria data management platform.
PANMOVE™ BACKUP
Protect file storage from damage, loss, and ransomware with PanMove Backup and its minimized backup windows and retrieval. An add-on to PanMove Advanced, policy-based automatic and secure data movement and data protection is extended for third-party storage in the data center, any private or public cloud with S3 or SWIFT access, and any S3 object storage.
PANMOVE™ ARCHIVE
A dedicated software solution for automatically archiving digital information on any file or object storage server, PanMove Archive secures data for any period of time in a centrally-managed archive. An add-on to PanMove Advanced, high-performance archiving is extended to and retrieval from colder storage, tape, optical disk, and cloud and S3 object storage archive tiers.
PANMOVE™ SYNC
The proven Panasas SiteSync software is now part of the PanMove family as PanMove Sync for a scalable and robust client-side parallel data replication solution across a LAN – effectively a state-of-the-art parallel version of rsync.
PanView™ is the Panasas data analytics software family that provides PanFS data visibility and insight for enhanced data management.
