Case Study: The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation preserves scalable digital archives with iXsystems TrueNAS

The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation scales archives from 200 TB to 4.5 PB with iXsystems

The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation required a highly scalable and secure storage solution to preserve and provide access to millions of digitized documents, recordings, and photographs. Their challenge was to build an infrastructure that could grow from 200 TB to over 4.5 PB while ensuring data integrity and public availability. They selected the TrueNAS M50-HA system from iXsystems to meet these needs.

iXsystems implemented a TrueNAS solution that provided ultra-scalable storage with zero downtime for expansion and unmatched protocol support. The results included the successful migration of all data from a legacy system, enabling simultaneous access for multiple users to input and stream archived materials. The solution's OpenZFS file system ensures data remains error-free, safeguarding the library's priceless collection with the support of iXsystems' engineering team.
