Key Features

High-performance data workflows: DDN DataFlow enables the design, deployment, and operation of high-performance data workflows at scale. According to the vendor, it offers a data platform that can seamlessly scale to meet demanding project requirements.

File synchronization solutions: DDN DataFlow provides file synchronization solutions, even across different storage platforms and remote locations. According to the vendor, it allows for data synchronization between file, object, cloud, and tape platforms without compromise.

Extensive interoperability: DDN DataFlow offers extensive interoperability, enabling multi-source and multi-destination data workflows. According to the vendor, it supports backup, archive, move, and synchronization of data on any platform, including file, object, cloud, and tape.

Parallel data engine: DDN DataFlow executes tasks using multi-threaded data movers and an intelligent job scheduler for efficient and reliable system operations. According to the vendor, its distributed architecture provides scalability, flexibility, and high performance, making it easy to integrate within any infrastructure.

Rapid identification of new and changed data: DDN DataFlow quickly and accurately identifies new and changed data. According to the vendor, it eliminates unnecessary resource-intensive crawls with its patented parallelized FastScan filesystem scanning technology.

Organize, curate, and enrich data collections: DDN DataFlow maintains a central archive catalog of all assets, allowing for easy organization, curation, and enrichment of data collections. According to the vendor, its hierarchical tree structure enables browsing, searching, and reorganization of data.

Intuitive user interfaces: DDN DataFlow provides GUI consoles that cover all administrative and operational aspects of the system. According to the vendor, the user interfaces offer extensive capabilities accessible to all users, including non-experts. The software also includes comprehensive command-line interfaces (CLIs) and APIs for pipeline integration and automation.

Real-time data integrity validation: DDN DataFlow ensures data integrity at every step through advanced checksum functions computed by data movers for each file during every operation. According to the vendor, it provides automatic integrity verification controls and enables on-demand auditing of archive storage integrity.

Enforcement of controls for security and compliance: DDN DataFlow integrates with a trusted framework that manages user access and ensures appropriate segregation of information based on policy and classification. According to the vendor, it integrates with directory services for user authentication and rights management, as well as external monitoring platforms.

Quick and reliable data synchronization: DDN DataFlow provides high-performance data synchronization between two storage locations using FastScan technology for accuracy and parallel architecture for speed. According to the vendor, it allows for data synchronization within two filesystems, to a remote location, and even across different storage platforms.
