Data centers and public cloud storage facilities generate 10s of terabytes to petabytes of data per day. From banks to retail brands, and telecommunication companies to manufacturers, the data generated is synchronized across several data centers using dedicated WAN networks to ensure it remains available for backup and disaster recovery scenarios. Employees, suppliers, and partners access this data to perform operations and provide customer service.
BRYCK® offers an instant solution for synchronization between storage facilities and data migration from data centers to the cloud. Across industries, moving data from location-to-location or company-to-customer safely and accurately at the edge speeds up decision-making. This migration process eliminates the risks and costs associated with existing methods, while reducing the transfer time from days and weeks to hours.

Managing the Massive Amounts of Data Generated
The largest online companies providing public cloud storage host a combined 1,200 petabytes of data1https://www.sciencefocus.com/future-technology/how-much-z-is-on-the-internet/, adding huge incremental data daily2https://www.statista.com/statistics/638593/worldwide-data-center-storage-capacity-cloud-vs-traditional/. As of 2021, the world’s data centers hold around 1,327 exabytes of data and continue to add another 2.5 exabytes daily. The World Economic Forum estimates that by 2025, humanity will create 463 exabytes of data each day, or the equivalent of 212,765,957 DVDs3https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2019/04/how-much-data-is-generated-each-day-cf4bddf29f/.
In addition to the public cloud, the U.S. currently hosts 2,652 private data centers while the global market has 500,000 or more4Pitch deck P52/3. The present situation is merely the tip of the iceberg. According to the 2021 North American Data Center Trends Report, the demand for data storage space continues to rise. New construction was up by 42% over 2020 at midyear, and vacancy rates reached a nationwide low of 1.6%5https://www.cbre.com/insights/reports/north-america-data-center-trends-h1-2021.
In several use cases, the data centers and cloud receive the incremental data from remote facilities such as edge and remote data centers over network. Such transfers take long time or incurs significant cost due to various limitations in the network and cost associated with it.
Enterprise corporations, multinational manufacturing companies, healthcare, and the financial services sectors foresee huge challenges ahead in moving data across their facilities.

How Data Migration Occurs Currently
How Data Migration Occurs Currently
Data is currently captured at the source and transferred to storage over the internet using dedicated high-speed WANs.
Existing physical road transport solutions can carry a maximum of 10 petabytes per trip and uploading 100 terabytes to the data center or cloud on arrival can take up to 10 days.
In many instances, these situations have led data center providers to consider building their own data migration products. This course of action requires an investment of an estimated $20 million to enable vendors to compete with large public cloud providers.
Three disadvantages of transferring data using dedicated high-speed WANs include:
Lack of Bandwidth: Incremental data is typically more than the bandwidth available, and bottlenecks during transfer result in long delays in synchronization.
High Costs: It’s exceptionally expensive, with a 100 Gbps dedicated WAN over the shared internet costing $1.2 million per year, while a 1-Gbps point-to-point WAN comes in at $6 million.
Missing Infrastructure: Some emerging cloud vendors do not have solutions for data migration, and some existing solutions can be inadequate.
