Superna Data Orchestration Edition is a software platform designed for Dell Isilon/PowerScale environments, enabling seamless, high-performance file-to-object and object-to-file data movement. It integrates a built-in load balancer for Dell ECS and other S3-compatible targets, eliminating the need for external load balancers. The solution simplifies workflows for archiving, backup, and data synchronization between file systems and object storage, supporting hybrid cloud scenarios. It ensures full metadata protection and supports advanced features like policy-based archiving, recall, and security overlays for SMB file systems. The platform is optimized for both small and large files and supports scale-out deployments for efficient parallel processing.
