Cloudian provides object storage solutions that integrate with Nutanix enterprise clouds. Their HyperStore software runs on Nutanix and provides native S3 compatible object storage. This allows storage tiering of data to the Nutanix cluster, external Cloudian clusters, or public clouds. It provides petabyte scalable storage for data protection, media/entertainment, surveillance and other capacity intensive applications through a standard S3 interface at low cost.
