How to unlock success: The analysis-first method

Komprise has been working with large public research universities since 2016.

Our customers, including prestigious Ivy League schools, have decades of data across silos--of which most has not been archived or deleted. This comes at high costs and complexity!

As the leading provider of unstructured data management and mobility, we want to fix this so universities can manage data more intelligently in the hybrid cloud.

Using Komprise for an analysis-first approach to unstructured data management, our education customers have achieved remarkable savings while delivering enhanced data services for departments:

  • Cut backup and storage costs by 70% by?transparently tiering cold data to object storage?
  • Gained visibility into every department's data and tailored policies by department
  • Enabled researchers to precisely search and find their own data with automated tagging and the Komprise Global File Index?
  • Moved data with zero access disruption to users.?

Komprise just announced Storage Insights, a new console for storage administrators which brings a unified, consistent view of both data usage and storage consumption across vendors and clouds.

Users no longer must contend with multiple consoles and multiple storage consumption definitions to find the analysis they need to make smart decisions for their data customers.
