“Carahsoft’s expertise in providing IT solutions to the Public Sector and its extensive ecosystem of Government partners make them an ideal partner for Hammerspace,” said Gregg Machon, Global Vice President, Channel Sales & Operations at Hammerspace. “Together, we help Federal, State and Local agencies unlock the full potential of their data, enabling faster innovation, improved collaboration and more efficient mission outcomes across distributed environments.”
Hammerspace consolidates unstructured data into a global namespace that provides enterprise organizations with fast data access across sites, clouds and storage. With the Hammerspace Data Platform, unstructured data and hardware in on-premises, cloud or edge environments become globally accessible through standard protocols without proprietary client software or agents. The Platform’s data orchestration services deliver data to AI or high-performance workloads without disrupting users or applications. Additionally, Hammerspace software automates control of distributed data with a policy engine that manages data protection, data placement and other essential data services.
Further, Hammerspace’s AI Data Platform (AIDP) solution offers a turnkey approach that removes one of the biggest barriers preventing enterprise AI pilot projects from reaching production: seamless access to distributed enterprise datasets. This allows organizations to start making their existing data AI-ready using the infrastructure they already own, without deploying a separate AI storage system. By uniquely leveraging data in place, Hammerspace eliminates the need to purchase massive amounts of new flash just to house AI data.
“With the addition of Hammerspace to our portfolio, we can better support our Government customers as they manage growing data requirements across on-premise, cloud and edge environments,” said Rob Pickle, Sales Director overseeing the Hammerspace Team at Carahsoft. “Hammerspace’s data orchestration capabilities strengthen our solution portfolio to help agencies improve data accessibility and performance while maintaining control of critical information assets. We look forward to working with Hammerspace and our reseller partners to deliver these capabilities to the Public Sector.”
