Data Dynamics StorageX
Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, United States
What it is
Data Dynamics StorageX automates policy-driven migration of unstructured data for enterprise transitions, cloud moves and storage optimization. It supports file-to-file, file-to-object and object-to-object migrations across on-premises, hybrid and cloud environments, including projects the vendor describes as petabyte-scale. Automated policies can replicate files to another location, including moving a complete share or export. Baseline and incremental copies support phased migrations while data remains available. During a move, StorageX can preserve permissions, apply new ones or remap access controls. Namespace management can update DFS links to direct users from an old destination to a new one at cutover. Named platforms include Azure, OneDrive, Google Cloud Platform and AWS, alongside object-storage systems such as NetApp StorageGRID, Dell ECS and IBM Cloud Object Storage. It is available for Linux, Windows and self-hosted deployment. Pricing is on request and follows a terabyte-consumption model. Customers must provide Microsoft SQL Server licenses; larger projects require Standard or Enterprise editions. Technical support and training are listed as support options.
