United States Air Force Leverages the Power of HyperDrive® for Critical Data Analysis of Aircraft

The United States Air Force, specifically at Eglin Air Force Base, needed a high-performance storage solution to manage and analyze massive amounts of sensitive flight test data from aircraft. Their challenges included performance, power and space constraints at the edge, and stringent security requirements for mission-critical data. They selected SoftIron's HyperDrive Ceph appliance to consolidate this data across geographically dispersed locations.

SoftIron's HyperDrive solution provided a secure, energy-efficient, and high-performance storage platform that drastically reduced data transfer times between flights. The implementation resulted in a 5x improvement in energy efficiency, an 80% reduction in power usage, and a halving of required floorspace. This allowed the Air Force to process and analyze critical data much faster and more reliably. SoftIron delivered a scalable solution that met all of their technical and security needs.
