Panzura–s Global Locking File System enables cloud storage to be used for all tiers of enterprise-class file services, which significantly reduces the cost of storage, WAN optimization, and MPLS networks while increasing the security of the data. Regardless of the project size or scope, Panzura provides geographically distributed teams with a common view of files across all locations — accessible anytime, anywhere — empowering users to work as if they were in the same room. This significantly improves user experience, reduces local storage provisioning and streamlines IT operations.
“We are pleased to be named as a Storage Competency Partner in the AWS Partner Network; this selection further validates the industry need of using cloud storage for more than just DR, back-up, and archive,” said Randy Chou, co-founder and CEO of Panzura. “The combination of Amazon S3 storage accelerated by our controllers with patented global file locking technology enables not only cross-office collaboration of large files and technical applications, but also provides massive consolidation of on-premises storage, WAN optimization, and private networks.”
Panzura is the catalyst in the transformation of cloud storage into high-performance enterprise file systems. Panzura–s revolutionary global locking file system seamlessly combines the flexibility, performance and productivity benefits of distributed storage with the manageability, security and economics of centralized storage.
With Panzura, the cloud — public or private — not only serves as every tier of storage, it becomes the fabric that enables globally distributed teams rapid file access and easy collaboration. Panzura delivers one file system across hundreds of offices that allows users to work together as if they were in the same room. For more information, visit .
