A Cloudian Case Study
NTT Communications, a Fortune Global 500 telecom and operator of the Biz Hosting Cloudn Object Storage service, faced an urgent need to replace legacy distributed file storage with an object storage platform that could manage multiple petabytes, provide ironclad data protection, deliver 100% Amazon S3 API compatibility, and launch quickly at aggressive price points. To meet those requirements and avoid hidden development costs, NTT selected Cloudian and its HyperStore software.
Cloudian deployed HyperStore to provide a field‑proven, S3‑compatible object storage foundation with multitenancy, billing/rating, configurable replication and seamless scalability on commodity hardware. The result for NTT Communications was unlimited scale‑out capacity, 100% S3 API fidelity, pre‑packaged STaaS features, stronger multi‑site durability, faster time‑to‑market and reduced acquisition and operational costs — enabling expanded service offerings and access to the broader S3 application ecosystem.
