What is Komprise?

Komprise is an intelligent data management and migration solution designed for large-scale enterprises with petabyte-scale data volumes and complex storage environments. According to the vendor, it provides a unified view of data across different storage vendors and locations, allowing organizations to optimize their data storage, reduce costs, and improve data access and availability. Komprise is utilized by IT professionals, data managers, storage administrators, cloud architects, and healthcare organizations to analyze, manage, and move file and object data to the right place at the right time.

Key Features

Intelligent Data Management: According to the vendor, Komprise enables enterprises to analyze unstructured data across storage vendors and platforms, gaining insights into data usage, growth, and access patterns. It helps identify hot and cold data for efficient data management and create policies for data tiering, archiving, and replication.

Elastic Data Migration: The vendor claims that Komprise allows organizations to migrate data across heterogeneous clouds and storage platforms. It offers elastic parallelism for scalable data migrations and optimizes network usage with WAN optimization. Importantly, data can be migrated without requiring rehydration.

Komprise Analysis: Komprise allows users to create a comprehensive Global File Index across file, object, and cloud storage, according to the vendor. Users can search and query the metadata catalog for specific data attributes, define tags, and search using standard and extended metadata. The metadata catalog can be accessed via an intuitive user interface or API.

Data Storage Integrations: Komprise seamlessly works with leading storage vendors such as NetApp, EMC, Google Cloud Platform, AWS, and Azure, according to the vendor. It leverages cloud storage solutions for tiering and archiving data while maintaining native access to data in the cloud without vendor lock-in. Additionally, it integrates with third-party NAS platforms for cloud disaster recovery.

Analyze Unstructured Data: According to the vendor, Komprise provides visibility into data type, ownership, usage, and growth. It helps organizations understand data access patterns and optimize storage resources. By identifying and archiving cold data, storage costs can be reduced. Furthermore, data analytics capabilities drive business insights and decision-making.

Cloud File Migration: The vendor claims that with Komprise, data can be moved to the cloud without disruption to users or applications. It supports data migration at scale, even across heterogeneous clouds and storage platforms. Network usage is minimized through efficient migration techniques, enabling faster time to value with elastic parallelism.

Cloud Tiering and Archiving: Komprise transparently tiers cold data to low-cost cloud storage, optimizing primary storage by moving infrequently accessed data to the cloud, according to the vendor. By archiving data to the cloud, organizations can reduce storage costs while maintaining native access to data for seamless retrieval.

Cyber Resiliency - Ransomware Protection: According to the vendor, Komprise helps identify and protect critical data from ransomware attacks. It isolates infected files and restores clean copies, minimizing data loss and downtime. Intelligent data management enhances data security and compliance with proactive measures.

Data Replication: Komprise enables data replication across storage platforms for high availability and disaster recovery, according to the vendor. It ensures data integrity and consistency during the replication process and optimizes network bandwidth with efficient replication techniques. Native access to replicated data is maintained for seamless retrieval.

Deep Analytics: Komprise allows users to create a unified metadata catalog or global namespace, according to the vendor. Users can query and search across billions of files for specific data attributes, feeding cloud analytics, data lakes, and warehouses with AI-ready data. Flexible and intuitive policies improve data management decisions.

We started using Komprise almost 2 years ago and we're using it to archive cold/unused data from our main Storage (CIFS/NFS workloads) to Azure Blobs.
It helped us to free up some space without the need to expand the storage (which would be a considerable investment, during critical times) or even our footprint/power consumption, etc.
Komprise has a very friendly and intuitive web interface and it is very flexible on the policies you can create.
We configured it to archive all data older than 2 years to Azure Blobs and to keep the 'bread crumbs' behind (symlinks to the files), and it is doing a really great job on the archiving!
  • It gives you a good overview on user data: files age, sizes, file types, owners, etc.
  • It is very flexible on the archiving policies.
  • The data scans are really fast without affecting storage's performance.
  • It has a great alternative to STUB files, which they call 'bread crumbs' (symlinks to files).
  • Its licensing plan, which takes into account the amount of data analyzed instead of data transferred.
As any other archiving solution, it is very well suited for environments with a large footprint of unstructured data (CIFS / NFS shares for user data) with a large amount of unused/old files and a need to keep those unused files for long term. In our scenario, due to some legal and contractual constraints we need to keep these files for 15 years. Archiving is a good choice to move the unused files to a cheaper storage tier, both on-prem or cloud.

  • It allowed us to free up some space on our main storage during a time where we didn't have the budget to expand it.
  • It allows us to move unused data to a cheaper storage tier (Azure Blobs).
We have used Veritas Enterprise Vault in the past, and besides its being a well-known player on the data archiving market, their tool is far more complex to implement, to manage and to keep working.
Komprise is very robust and also very easy to implement, as most part of the job is done on Komprise side. The management console is delivered through a public URL as a SaaS platform. You only need to deploy a few VMs for scan/archiving/user access, which they call "Observer VMs."
Komprise also doesn't uses Stub files, which is a poor implementation adopted by the competitor for file access. We had a lot of issues in the past with stub files. Komprise has implemented 'bread crumbs', which are CIFS symlinks to the files on the Observer. It is a very good implementation and it works really well.
