Scality is a software company based in San Francisco, California founded in 2009. Scality produces a software product called the RING for large scale data storage. Companies like Dailymotion use the RING for petabytes of video storage behind their consumer-facing web application. Los Alamos National Lab uses the RING as "home" storage for exabyte-scale supercomputer simulations. Comcast uses the RING as storage for billions of messages and attachments in their email service. ==History== Scality was founded in 2009 by Jérôme Lecat, Giorgio Regni, Daniel Binsfeld, Serge Dugas, and Brad King. The company has received a total of over $80 million in venture capital funding. Scality raised $7 million of Series B funding in March 2011. A C-round of $22 million was announced in June 2013, led by Menlo Ventures and Iris Capital with participation from FSN PME and all existing investors, including Idinvest Partners, OMNES Capital and Galileo Partners. Scality raised $45 million in August 2015. This Series D funding was led by Menlo Ventures with participation from all existing investors and one new strategic investor, BroadBand Tower. Scality announced a refreshed brand, along with a global distribution agreement with HP in October 2014. Scality added Dell as a second global reseller in August 2015. ==Products== The Scality RING is a software-based storage solution that runs on standard x86 servers and standard Linux with no kernel modifications. The RING uses an object storage core for scalable data management, a peer-to-peer architecture for reliable routing (based on the MIT CHORD algorithm), and shared-nothing parallelism for performance. It is designed for hundreds of petabytes of data, trillions of files, and continuous availability at scale, with the ability to serve the majority of storage workloads via file, object, and OpenStack-based interfaces. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scality」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
