A New York university's biotech and life science institute required a storage platform robust enough to withstand DNA sequencing, proteomics and imaging. So the school, dedicated to data-intensive research projects in high performance computing environments, decided it was time for a highly scalable and reliable storage solution.

This brief case study walks you through this university's approach to seeking a storage solution that encouraged research, education and technology transfer in biotechnology. Read on to learn how the selected solution for the school's HPC clusters helped them achieve:

• Increased researcher productivity
• Improved access to data without standard file system limitations
• Greater scalability and low-cost software
• And more
