1. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com Use all of your data with any application, any user, any data center or cloud service, anywhere  High performance, read/write, without ever copying Local Access Everywhere Global Data Environment Overview Briefing IT Press Tour January 25, 2022
2. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com • The problem: • Enabling local data access and data services across multiple local, cloud, and remote storage resources. • What is Hammerspace and how does it solve this? • Use-Case examples of why it matters. • Demo of Hammerspace software. Agenda:
3. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com NAS NAS SAN SAN No one storage type serves all requirements: The Problem: Storage designed to be local… Silos emerge • Data out-lasts the storage it's on today • Different cost and performance bands • Different protocols for broader access • Incompatible silos emerge • Increased IT complexity to manage Even today, most storage systems are architected for local access
4. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com Distributed Storage & Users Add Problems: The Problem: Cloud and multi- site are the new reality Data silos are no longer only local problems • Distributed workforce needs direct online access to data • Global management of data services, data protection, and intelligent data placement are nearly impossible • Cost and IT complexity grows NAS NAS SAN SAN OBJECT CLOUD London Berlin Tokyo New York San Francisco
5. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com The Need: Data and storage management needs to adapt today’s reality • Users require high performance global access to data • From any datacenter, any cloud, any region, any application, anywhere. • Global management and control of data and storage resources is a must.

7. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com • Hammerspace Architecture Architecting a Global Data Environment
8. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com Global Data Environment: Users access any data, on any storage as local Admins have Global Control All users, with appropriate permissions, see the same data, no matter where they are located! View, and manage, all global data and storage resources! User View Administrator User View Users Have Local Access to All Data: Admins Have Global Control of All Data Services:
9. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 1) Global File System for Global Access • Global file system • Single logical file system spans datacenters and cross-clouds • Data sharing • Users can access data from anywhere without making copies • Based upon open standards • Stores data in native format • Share data natively with Snowflake Cloud • Store data natively in AWS, Azure, GCP, et al • Multi-protocol access • SMB ,NFS, pNFS • RFC2307bis • CSI driver for Kubernetes Composition of a Global Data Environment Universal Data Access
10. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com • Metadata control plane • Metadata aggregated from all resources and locations. • Metadata replicated peer-to-peer across all locations • Users and applications see the same data everywhere as local • Data control and placement on demand • Eliminating unnecessary delays • Optimizing resource capacity utilization • Just-in-time data mobility • Transparent and non-disruptive to users and applications • Workflow-driven data management • File-granular objective-based policies • Application and user-driven data placement • Enables workflow automation Composition of a Global Data Environment Data Orchestration 2) Global Data Orchestration
11. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com • Policy-based Data Orchestration • Extensible & Custom metadata • Replication • Undelete • File Versioning • Audit • WORM • Tiering • Compression & Deduplication • Encryption • Anti-virus • Snapshots & Clones 3) Automated Global Metadata & Data Services Composition of a Global Data Environment Central Control of Data Services • IT Admins have global control of all services • Single pane of glass eliminates complexity • Reduce isolated point solutions for siloed services
12. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com • Any storage type, & cross-datacenter • Multi-vendor NAS, Block, Object Storage • Cross-cloud • AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Wasabi, and others • Snowflake Data Cloud • Multi-region • Policy-based data placement in geographic region • Optimize for cost, latency, availability, etc. • Software Defined • Runs on bare metal, VMs, and in public cloud Composition of a Global Data Environment Any storage, anywhere 4) Any Data, Any Storage, Anywhere

17. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com Customer Problem: • Accommodate distributed workforce: • Artists across five UK studios and global locations need “local” access to their data. • Need to reduce Cloud render costs: • Must move render workloads between Cloud regions on demand to get better rates. Hammerspace Solution: • Artists can log in as local from anywhere via HS Global Data Environment. • Talent accesses their work without making copies. • Workloads can follow the sun, and dynamically shift without disruption. • Render workloads can now move to most cost-effective region seamlessly. • Customer apps distribute render jobs between US East & West, India and Europe dynamically. • Artists apply custom Hammerspace metadata tags to files at their desktop, simplifying downstream orchestration and processing. Example 1: Global VFX Production Benefits: Reduces costs, eliminates rsync copies & complex manual job orchestration, increases artist productivity.
18. 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com 2022 | www.HAMMERSPACE.com Example 2: Global Distributed Production Environment Customer Problem: • Manage data across eight data centers & two Cloud providers: • Data placement is manual, via gateways and manual copies. • Problems supporting globally distributed workforce: • Talent may be anywhere, but data access is not. Hammerspace Solution: • Global data orchestration across all sites & Clouds • Copy management is controlled, data placement is automated. • Unified local access with HS Global Data Environment. • Artists anywhere access data workloads as local. Cloud No. 1 Cloud No. 2 Data Center-1 DC-2 DC-3 DC-5 DC-7 DC-8 DC-6 DC-4 Benefits: → Eliminates manual copies, gateways and point solutions for data orchestration. → Local access to remote data accelerates production, reduces delays.
