Autonomy Private Cloud Hits 17 Petabytes
Growth of World's Largest Private Cloud Fueled by Rapid Adoption for Archiving, Compliance, eDiscovery, Legal Information Chaining, Marketing Optimization, and Video and Audio Analytics
CAMBRIDGE, England and SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Autonomy Corporation plc(LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Autonomy's private cloud computing platform has reached a new data processing milestone, extending its lead as the world's largest private cloud. Autonomy private cloud now manages over 17 Petabytes of email, documents, and multimedia data on 6,500 servers on 8 data centers around the world. Seventeen Petabytes is equal to more than 11 times the size of the 10 billion photos on Facebook, or 226 years of HD video.
The continued dramatic growth of Autonomy's private cloud is the result of Autonomy's unique, meaning-based approach to cloud computing, as well as the rapid adoption for multichannel marketing applications. Powered by Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), Autonomy's private cloud automatically recognizes concepts and patterns in the billions of files it ingests and indexes every day. The ability to automatically understand the meaning within all forms of data provides a significant advantage to the customer, whether it's a compliance officer or lawyer responsible for archiving and reviewing emails, video, and social media posts around a particular case, or a chief marketing officer looking to deliver the most relevant and proven content to a website visitor in real-time.
As a result, Autonomy is now the dominant leader in a range of private cloud computing applications. Autonomy is driving rapid uptake amongst marketers looking for a cost-effective, fast, and turnkey platform for hosted marketing applications. For instance, a marketing team can form a virtual chain with its network of design and advertising agencies, to securely collaborate on the development of rich media content. Autonomy's cloud-based marketing modules include Autonomy Optimost, Autonomy TeamSite, and Autonomy Virage MediaBin.
Likewise, corporate legal departments are increasingly turning to Autonomy to form a virtual private chain with their law firm partners, in order securely collaborate on relevant information for a particular investigation or case. This cloud-based approach to eDiscovery results in radically compressed timeframes for the eDiscovery process. Autonomy's private cloud processed 36,000 eDiscovery audits year-to-date, producing 48 Terabytes of eDiscovery data. Autonomy's cloud-based information governance modules include Autonomy Consolidated Archive, Early Case Assessment, Introspect, Legal Hold, Records Manager, Supervisor, and iManage WorkSite.
"Most technology providers consider cloud computing to be nothing more than making the contents and applications in a digital storage box accessible via the internet," said Mike Lynch, CEO of Autonomy. "However, Autonomy's meaning-based approach to cloud computing brings intelligence to a range of applications, from archiving to eDiscovery to marketing. Autonomy provides the ideal platform for our Protect and Promote customers, who are dealing with an increasing array of content to govern and apply policy to, produce for eDiscovery investigations and review, and who are seeking greater agility in launching multichannel campaigns that resonate with their customers."
Autonomy's private cloud is hosted in state-of-the-art and high-security data centers. The data centers are under 24/7 surveillance, and each one undergoes annual Statement of Accounting Standard number 70 or "SAS 70" audits. Two fully synchronized, geographically separated systems provide complete data and system redundancy and parallel processing of all tasks. The design addresses all aspects of multi-tenancy, such as multiple firewalls and virus protection, and is ideally qualified to support the performance and volume requirements that are necessary for processing the rapidly expanding number of corporate formats and unified communications - including all forms of text, audio, and video.
