XSKY was recognized as a Strong Performer in the Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer” for Distributed File Systems and Object Storage in 2023 once again.
After persistent investment in basic R&D and technology innovation, the company has established core technological advantages in software-defined infrastructure and data management in hybrid cloud mode, and has become a provider of one-stop data storage management solutions for government and enterprise organizations to realize free flow of data, one-stop data protection, hardware innovation, flexible expansion in performance and capacity, hardware unlocking, agile O&M management, multiple virtualization platforms, continuous TCO reduction, pooling storage of resources, and efficient utilization, until carbon neutrality goals are achieved.
Meanwhile, XSKY has been actively facilitating technological innovation in IT infrastructure, with the production and deployment of products fully supporting information technology application innovation platforms such as Kunpeng, Phytium, Hygon and Zhaoxin, and has realized data flow across ecological platforms and interruption-free data migration of customer business. In addition, the company launched Tian He Xiang Yu Distributed Storage System in September, 2020, an SDS product for the information technology application innovation market achieving business-critical availability, scenario-integrated delivery, and free flow of data.
XSKY is not only a member of China Information Technology Application Innovation Working Committee, but also a council member of Green Computing Consortium on storage technology, a member unit of HIECO, and the initiator and main contributor to the distributed storage community of openEuler. It has built strategic partnerships with internationally renowned vendors like Intel, VMware and Red Hat, and has become ecological partners with more than 50 leading Chinese network and IT enterprises such as China Great Wall and Huawei Kunpeng companies for mutual certification of products, so that storage can support data flow in multiple scenarios and realize the localization of infrastructure upgrades.
To further promote the spread of data infrastructure technology dividends to lower markets, together with its domestic partners in the fields of data centers, cloud vendors and data services, XSKY proposed the establishment of a Make Data Alive Strategic Cooperation Ecology in July, 2021, in order to create a service ecology with cloud-edge collaboration, centering on data storage, data management and data application, thus empowering lower-tier markets to accelerate digital transformation and upgrading.
At present, XSKY has set up offices and technical service forces in more than 40 key cities across China to provide 7*24 data storage and management services for government and enterprise organizations, and any emergency can be responded within one hour.
Apart from helping government and enterprise organizations with digital transformation and upgrading, XSKY has also taken the lead in drafting national and industry standards such as Cloud Storage Technology Standards and Distributed Storage Technology Standards.
In the future, XSKY will work continuously with partners in the industry to build a perfect SDS ecosystem and solve key problems concerning data infrastructure in the era of hybrid cloud, such as aggregation, storage, management, reading, protection and flow of data, so that data infrastructure can be based on cloud to unleash all of its computing power.
