A ClearSky Data Case Study
Nuance Communications, an innovator in conversational AI, was dealing with rapidly growing data volumes and an expanding global infrastructure footprint. Its existing on-premises storage environment had become difficult to manage, and the company needed more flexibility, cloud connectivity, and consolidation across storage silos without sacrificing performance. ClearSky Data was chosen to help address these storage challenges with an on-demand hybrid cloud storage service.
Using ClearSky Data’s on-demand primary storage with built-in backup and disaster recovery, Nuance gained a single durable copy of its data, automatic protection, and the ability to scale storage up or down as needed. The solution eliminated the need for secondary storage and multiple data copies, moved cold data to the public cloud while keeping hot data near applications, and shifted costs from CapEx to OpEx. As a result, Nuance achieved stronger performance, simplified storage management, and significant cost savings while focusing more on its core AI business.
