DeepDyve - Customer Case Study

DeepDyve, a service providing affordable access to scholarly journals, faced the challenge of securely storing and scaling its repository of over 50 million documents. Their previous storage method was costly, difficult to scale, and required specialized expertise to manage, putting their business-critical data at risk. They sought a commercial-grade, scalable, and easy-to-manage solution from iXsystems to ensure data integrity and enable quick restoration.

iXsystems implemented its TrueNAS unified storage solution, which provided ZFS-based snapshots and replication for data protection. This gave DeepDyve a scalable and easily managed system that eliminated the need for a dedicated storage administrator. The results included minimal downtime through reliable replication, substantial time and space savings from efficient snapshots, and the peace of mind that their global service was supported by a robust storage infrastructure.
