Gartner: Scality #1 for Backup

05 December 2022

Scality has been ranked #1 by Gartner for the Backup use case in the 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities report for Distributed File Systems and Object Storage, among 18 storage vendors.

Scality was also recognised as a Leader in the 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed File Systems and Object Storage — for a seventh year in a row. Scality is also #2 in the Cloud-Native Applications use case, among 13 vendors, and ranked 4th and 6th in two other use cases — Archiving and Hybrid-Cloud Storage.

“We are honoured that Scality was recognised again in the Gartner Critical Capabilities,” said Paul Speciale, CMO at Scality. “Ransomware attacks on backup data are on the rise, making backup and data protection among the most business-critical capabilities that IT teams provide. Scality’s ranking as #1 in the Backup use case, we feel, reflects what our customers already know — that having an on-premises object storage solution for backup brings undeniable advantages, including freedom from lock-in, bulletproof data protection, and fast recovery.”
