SEATTLE, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Qumulo, the leading file data platform that helps organizations easily store and manage their file data at scale with unrivaled freedom, control and real-time visibility, today announced its position as a Leader in the 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed File Systems and Object Storage¹ for the third consecutive year.

The Qumulo file data platform is at the heart of these strategic initiatives," said Bill Richter, CEO of Qumulo. "Our vision of making it easy for customers to store, manage and build with file data at massive scale continues to be unwavering.

- 50% of the global storage capacity will be deployed as software-defined storage (SDS) on-premises or on the public cloud, up from less than 15% in 2020.
- More than 30% of enterprise storage capacity will be remotely managed outside of enterprise data centers, up from less than 5% in 2020."
