CDNetworks' customers will now be able to cost-effectively store unlimited amounts of protected and secure content online and move content instantly to and from any of CDNetworks' 63 nodes worldwide.
Earlier this month, Nirvanix announced the commercial release of its Storage Delivery Network for large businesses, putting it in direct competition with market leaders like Amazon S3 (aws.amazon.com/s3).
By partnering with CDNetworks, Nirvanix will enable its customers to securely store massive amounts of media and content as well as stage content for instant delivery anywhere in the world using one of CDNetworks' data centers for local delivery.
The combination of these services will provide both companies with better overall media delivery capability while saving 80 to 90 percent in the costs of building or growing storage infrastructures of their own.
CDNetworks Library Storage solution provides CDNetworks' customers with geographically redundant storage nodes with no file size limitation and 100 percent content offload from their origin servers to the cloud.
The partnership also unifies CDNetworks' caching infrastructure with the vast storage of Nirvanix, allowing data to be moved between cache and cloud storage.
"We founded Nirvanix to provide media companies with the most cost-effective, high performance media storage service with global on-demand scalability to exabytes of content," says Patrick Harr, founder and CEO of Nirvanix. "By combining the advantages of our SDN with CDNetworks' CDN service, customers can now benefit from the only end-to-end platform service that intelligently stores and delivers all their content, including short and long-tail, at price, scale and performance points not available before."
Nirvanix has been strategically aligning itself with other companies in the past year in an effort to expand on its services and market share.
In March, Nirvanix signed a partnership deal with utility computing platform developer 3Tera to provide the company with new and advanced cloud computing solutions, including global distributed storage, content distribution and remote backup capabilities for Web application developers.
