QStar Technologies Inc, the leading global provider of enterprise-class archive and data management software solutions, today announced that Coldago Research has selected QStar as a 2025 Gem. QStar has been selected as a result of their vision, potential market disruption, and product innovations in archive storage technology.
“We are honored to be named a Coldago Research Gem 2025 Company to Watch,” said Riccardo Finotti, QStar CEO. “Our Global ArchiveSpace™ software, announced in early 2024, has been well received by organizations with very large archive storage requirements, particularly for HPC and AI workflows, where data that is not currently being processed can be securely 'parked' at extremely low cost. Data is still active and online – ready to be streamed back from tape when required.”
"Pioneer in unstructured data archiving developing a well-recognized software solution, QStar Technologies has made a significant shift in its trajectory with its Global ArchiveSpace™ product perfectly aligned with modern data management challenges," said Philippe Nicolas, founder and analyst, Coldago Research. "It shakes industry established positions and solidifies its market footprint with some real innovative features."
With the world’s largest tape libraries in mind from IBM, Oracle, Quantum and Spectra Logic, QStar Global ArchiveSpace™ is designed to address the massive storage and performance requirements of today, and into the future. Global ArchiveSpace uniquely provides both a file system interface (SMB and NFS) and an S3 cloud API using Global Namespace concepts. Windows or Linux nodes are all active and share workloads for writing or reading. All nodes can use any tape drive (LTO or IBM / Oracle proprietary tape) to access any media without the need to partition the tape library.
QStar technology partners Cohesity and Rubrik (both 2018) and Hammerspace and HYCU (both 2020) are previous recipients of Coldago’s prestigious Gems award.
