Why Choose Quantum?

Data That Lives, Not Just Sits

For decades, the storage industry treated data like physical inventory, static boxes to be stacked in a warehouse and forgotten until needed. Quantum challenges this outdated paradigm. We believe that data is alive.

In the modern enterprise, 80% to 90% of the data generated is “unstructured.” This includes high-definition video, satellite imagery, genomic sequencing data, IoT sensor logs and surveillance footage. This data is heavy, complex and notoriously difficult to manage. 

However, it is also where the truth of your business lies. It holds the insights for your next breakthrough, the evidence for your security and the history of your achievements.

Why choose Quantum? Because Quantum is the only company solely dedicated to managing this specific type of complex, unstructured data across its entire lifecycle.

  1. Enrichment: Quantum technology allows you to tag, catalog and analyze data so that it becomes searchable and usable, rather than a “dark data” swamp.
  2. Lifecycle Management: We automatically move data to the most cost-effective tier. Hot data stays on fast flash storage; cooling data moves to object storage; cold data moves to secure tape. You never pay for performance you don’t need.
  3. Future-Proofing: Quantum solutions are designed to scale effortlessly. 

The system offers seamless scalability for data, ranging from terabytes to exabytes, avoiding the necessity for disruptive “forklift upgrades.”

At D3, we champion Quantum because they understand that your storage infrastructure should not be a cost center, it should be a catalyst for discovery.

Quantum Solutions Available at D3

At Digidisti, we have selected a portfolio of Quantum’s most powerful solutions, tailored to meet the diverse needs of the Middle East market. Below, we explore the core pillars of the Quantum offering.

Ransomware Recovery & Backup Appliances (DXi Series)

In the event of a ransomware attack, time is the enemy. Every second of downtime translates to lost revenue and reputational damage. The Quantum DXi® Series of backup appliances is engineered to neutralize this threat through speed and efficiency.

Ransomware Recovery & Backup Appliances (DXi Series)
  • Instant Recovery: DXi allows you to boot virtual machines directly from the backup appliance, getting your critical applications back online almost instantly while the full restore happens in the background.
  • Secure Replication: Your data is encrypted at rest and in flight, ensuring that even if physical drives are stolen, the data remains unreadable.
  • Scalability: From small branch offices to massive enterprise data centers, the DXi family scales to meet your specific capacity requirements.
 

Video Surveillance & Physical Security Infrastructure

Never Miss a Frame.

Dubai is a city synonymous with safety and smart infrastructure. Powering the “Smart City” vision requires storage that can handle a nonstop torrent of video data. 

Standard IT servers often choke under the pressure of hundreds of cameras writing data simultaneously, leading to “dropped frames”, gaps in the video that can result in legal liabilities or security breaches.

Quantum’s Video Surveillance solutions are purpose-built for this exact challenge.

  • No Drop Guarantee: Our infrastructure is tuned for “write-intensive” workloads. We ensure that every pixel from every camera is captured with absolute fidelity, regardless of resolution.
  • Long-Term Retention: In many jurisdictions, security footage must be kept for 90, 120 or even 365 days. Quantum makes this economically viable by automatically moving older footage from expensive disk drives to economical tape or cloud tiers, without the security team ever losing track of the file.
  • Analytics Ready: Modern security is about analysis, not just recording. Quantum’s high-performance parallel file systems allow AI and computer vision applications to scan footage in real-time without interrupting the recording process.

Long-Term Archiving & Cold Storage

Not all data needs to be accessed every day, but much of it needs to be kept forever. Whether for regulatory compliance, historical preservation or future research, organizations are drowning in “cold data.” Storing this on primary flash storage is financially ruinous.

Quantum is the undisputed global leader in tape storage and archiving. Through D3, you can access the Scalar® Tape Libraries, which provide the lowest cost-per-terabyte storage on the market.

Long-Term Archiving & Cold Storage
  • Massive, Flexible Scale: Scalar libraries offer unmatched scalability, starting as small as 25 slots and scaling to over 14,000 slots in a modular, space-efficient footprint. Our Capacity-on-Demand (CoD) licensing ensures you only pay for the resources you need as your data grows, maximizing your investment.
  • Archival Density & Economics (LTO-10): With support for the latest LTO-10 technology, Scalar delivers up to 30 TB native capacity per cartridge. This combination provides the highest storage density and the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), critical for managing massive growth in unstructured data.
  • Strongest Cyber Protection: Scalar’s secure storage is essential for long-term archiving, compliance and image retention, ensuring the strongest cyber protection and serving as a key component in modern cloud and hyperscale infrastructures.
  • The Green Choice: In a region increasingly conscious of sustainability, tape storage is a game-changer. Unlike hard drives that spin and consume electricity 24/7, tape cartridges sit quietly on a shelf, consuming zero power until they are accessed.
  • Durability: Hard drives have a lifespan of 3-5 years. Quantum LTO tape media is rated for 30+ years of archival life, ensuring your organization’s history is preserved for the next generation.

Video Surveillance & Physical Security Infrastructure

  • Automated Intelligence: With Quantum’s ActiveScale™ Cold Storage, you get the durability of tape with the ease of use of a cloud object store. It creates a “private cloud” inside your own data center.
