Explore how a major European space agency manages massive scientific datasets from approximately 200 satellites using Scality RING's hybrid storage solution in this 14-minute conference presentation. Learn about the challenges of legacy storage systems and discover how Scality addresses the need for cost-effective, scalable, and easily accessible storage for both live and archival data. Understand the multi-tiered architecture that stores live data on RING for active analysis before moving it to tape for long-term archiving after six months, managing hundreds of petabytes of cold data through a custom-built Tape Library Protocol (TLP) API. Examine how the solution integrates with HSMs from partners like HP, Atempo, IBM, and Spectra while providing transparent access through the S3 Glacier API. Discover the advantages of this architecture including data durability through a three-site stretch ring with replication across two tape libraries, unified S3 namespace access that hides underlying complexity from users, and enhanced security features like object lock that enable efficient long-term data workflows for space agencies.
