Hammerspace Data-in-Place Assimilation
Create a unified data environment across storage platforms, sites, and clouds without moving or copying data.
Don't Migrate. Assimilate.
Read the Solution BriefThe Problem with Legacy Migrations
The data that powers your business is distributed across storage platforms, sites, and clouds. Whether the goal is infrastructure modernization, storage consolidation, AI, or cloud adoption, traditional approaches typically begin with a migration project. But migrations are costly, disruptive, and often take months to complete.
Hammerspace Takes a Different Approach
Instead of copying data into a new storage system, Hammerspace assimilates the metadata from existing storage systems while data remains in place. Users and applications gain immediate access through a unified global namespace, without waiting for lengthy discovery or migration processes to complete.
Exponentially Faster Execution
Because the metadata represents only a fraction of the size of the underlying data, assimilation can occur dramatically faster than traditional migration approaches.
Day-Zero Operational Readiness
Instead of waiting weeks or months for migrations to complete, organizations can begin using a unified data environment immediately.
How Data-in-Place Assimilation Works
Create a unified data environment without migrating data.
Connect Existing Storage
Add your existing NAS. object, and cloud storage to Hammerspace.
NAS & File Systems
NetApp, Dell, HPE. IBM, etc.Object Storage
MinIo, Dell ECS, Scality, etc.Cloud Storage
AWS S3, Azure Blob, Google Cloud, etc.
Data Stays in Place
Existing storage remains online while users and applications gain unified access.
Assimilate Metadata
Hammerspace rapidly ingests metadata while leaving data in place.

Move Metadata, Not Data
Metadata is a fraction of the data size, enabling rapid assimilation without moving the underlying data.
Immediate Access Through Hammerspace
Users and applications gain immediate access through Hammerspace using standard protocols.

Use Your Data in Minutes - Not Months
Don't wait months to migrate data onto a new storage platform - start using it immediately.
The Benefits of Data-in-Place Assimilation
Instantly unify fragmented storage into a single global namespace. Data-in-Place Assimilation lets you modernize infrastructure and maximize existing investments without the delays or disruptions of traditional data migration.
Start Using a Unified Data Environment Immediately
Begin using a unified data environment without waiting for lengthy migration projects to complete.
Unify Fragmented Data Into a Global Namespace
Bring together data distributed across storage vendors, platforms, sites, and clouds into a single global namespace.
Modernize Infrastructure Without Disruptive Data Migrations
Refresh storage, consolidate infrastructure, and retire legacy systems without changing how users and applications access data.
Extend the Life of Existing Storage Investments
Continue using existing storage infrastructure while modernizing how data is accessed, managed, and operationalized.
Once Data is Assimilated, it can be Operationalized Anywhere
Once data is assimilated, it can be operationalized for AI and other use cases through policy-driven data orchestration.
Datasets become part of a unified global namespace where data can be intelligently placed across storage systems, sites, and clouds to support business and application requirements.
