The Cloudian Storage Platform is integrated with Citrix CloudPlatform™, enabling cloud service providers and enterprises to seamlessly deploy S3-compatible cloud storage quickly and cost-effectively along with a state-of-the-art cloud computing platform under a common user interface for provisioning and sign on. In addition to enabling revenue-generating Storage-as-a-Service (STaaS), Cloudian has also been integrated with CloudPlatform to act as secondary storage, providing multi-zone access to templates and snapshots. Cloudian is listed at the Citrix Ready® Xchange at http://www.citrix.com/ready/en/cloudian.  

Cloudian delivers a fully S3 API compliant, multi-tenant, multi-data center cloud storage platform that enables customers to cost-effectively deploy an extremely scalable and reliable object storage service within public and private clouds. The platform leverages a fully distributed, peer-to-peer architecture, with no single point of failure. Cloudian also provides a comprehensive user interface for both end user applications as well as administrative functions, including billing, monitoring and provisioning. The solution easily scales from one node up to hundreds of nodes across multiple data centers, supporting petabytes of data, enabling system operators to leverage heterogeneous, commodity servers for cost-effective horizontal scalability.

Last fall, the company released the free Cloudian Community Edition, which will support up to 100 TB of useable storage and offers forum support, opening up the scalability, reliability and power of cloud object storage to anyone building an Amazon S3-compatible cloud, be it public, private or hybrid.  The Cloudian Community Edition can be downloaded from http://www.cloudian.com/get-started.html.
