Talon Brings Software-Defined Storage Success to Microsoft Ignite

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J., Sept. 18, 2017 -- Talon, the leading provider of enterprise class file sharing solutions for distributed locations, today announced that it will be in attendance at Microsoft Ignite, to be held September 25-30, 2017 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Talon will present a case study of customer The TSK Group at a breakout session discussing how Talon FAST™ helped the company embrace a cloud strategy, allowing TSK to utilize the cloud as a central repository for unstructured data, easily accessed by disparate locations anywhere.

Talon Senior Vice President, Charles Foley will highlight how corporate partner BuildingZones managed The TSK Group’s implementation of the Talon FAST technology.  Scheduled for Tuesday, September 26th at 10:45 am, Session BRK 2286 will outline how TSK launched a corporate cloud strategy targeted at removing on-premises infrastructure in favor of cloud resources. The session will show how the combination of Azure Storage and Talon FAST™  provided secure integration into the AD-enabled enterprise, a seamless user experience, and local-like performance even when using cloud-based file shares.  As a result, Talon FAST provided TSK with a solution for moving away from a major infrastructure management burden via a caching solution that alleviated the concern about egress costs, and provided an overall cost-effective solution allowing the company to grow more cost-effectively.

Talon FAST™ is available in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace as a joint offering with the Azure storage offerings. Talon FAST™ enables a global fabric that eliminates complexity and backups at the branch and allows organizations to manage data at a single location in the Azure Cloud while delivering high performance file sharing at geographically dispersed locations. Talon FAST™ is storage agnostic and transparently fits into any IT setting. Talon FAST™ immediately extends the value of central storage in a distributed corporate environment.
