Versity is bringing GPUDirect RDMA to tape archiving for the first time. By adding S3 over RDMA support to the open source Versity Gateway through NVIDIA’s cuObject framework, and pairing it with ScoutAM, Versity now offers a GPUDirect Tape Gateway that moves data at RDMA speed all the way to tape, making large-scale recall practical for AI training and HPC workloads.

The German Climate Computing Center brought its 254 PB climate archive onto Versity ScoutAM with zero data migration, using open-format tape to offload Lustre scratch and keep its costliest HPC storage tier small. What buyers can learn from the deployment.
VersityGW’s POSIX backend maps S3 object keys directly to filesystem paths — no proprietary encoding, no vendor lock-in at the data layer. Learn how administrators use standard POSIX tools alongside the S3 API to manage, back up, and migrate data without gateway dependency.
Forty to sixty petabytes per rack, customer-serviceable, no specialized infrastructure required. Tape is back — but the S3 gateway you choose matters more than the library, and getting it wrong means losing data portability for the entire life of your archive.
The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) selected Versity’s ScoutAM to power Ranch, a new exascale archive built to support Horizon — set to become the world’s largest academic supercomputer for open scientific research. By adopting a two-tier flash-to-tape architecture, TACC eliminated mid-tier disk in favor of a faster, more cost-efficient approach to managing up to one exabyte of data. Read on to learn how Versity’s open, vendor-agnostic platform gave TACC the flexibility, scalability, and simplicity to meet the demands of AI-driven science.
Engineers at CERN have contributed a shared library plugin framework to the open-source Versity S3 Gateway, making it easier to connect new storage backends without modifying core code. Their reference implementation — the EOS S3 plugin — maps S3 operations directly to CERN’s petabyte-scale distributed storage system used by the Large Hadron Collider. Read on to learn how the plugin model works and how you can contribute.
See how Versity’s ScoutAM powers NCSA’s Granite archive, enabling the AI-driven search and rescue research at Cal Poly that helps locate missing persons faster.
Discover how traditional backup systems, though vital, often fall short when dealing with massive datasets. By directing backup data to an archiving platform, organizations can overcome inefficiencies, reduce storage costs, and enhance data scalability. Learn how this innovative approach can optimize your data management strategy, ensuring both long-term preservation and swift recovery.
