Larger volumes and size of data has created challenges in many industries
Telco, Media and Entertainment
• Challenged to effectively distribute large media assets through their rapidly expanding digital supply chain
LifeSciences
• Struggle to globally share and access Big Data sets that are changing daily (e.g. Genomic data)
Financial Services
• Depend on high speed synchronization of data across geographies for critical business continuity capabilities
IT applicationdevelopment
• Faced with challenges to global development, QA, test and support of large-scale applications and engineering processes
Oil, Gas and Next Gen Energy
• Challenged to move giant seismic data sets from remote locations across data centers for processing and analysis
Government
• Critical analysis hampered by slow transfer of intelligence data sets (e.g. satellite surveillance imagery)

Existing approaches fall short
• Limitations in moving large files and collections of files over WANs
• Inability to scale with increases in file sizes and transfer volumes
• Complex file/data set synchronization and workflow automation requirements
• Bulk data not well supported for Cloud storage
• Traditional protocols limit performance of high end scale out NAS
• Alternatives to file transfer have limited scope/reach
• Transfer performance is significantly impacted by distance
• Throughput does not scale with bandwidth increases
• Highly inefficient bandwidth utilization with no control over speed and priority of transfers
