49ers Tackle Data Storage
With a 68,500 seat stadium, top of the line systems and technology are a priority. By adding Qumulo to their data defense lineup, the 49ers can focus on the game instead of their unique VSS challenges.

49ers Choose Qumulo for Safety & Security for a Data Storage Touchdown
The San Francisco 49ers are using the Qumulo File Data Platform to extend the storage capacity of security camera feeds captured in and around the 49ers’ home venue and training facility. With Qumulo, the 49ers are unleashing the power of unstructured data to enhance security safety.
Like many areas of technology, the video security landscape continues to evolve. This makes managing video data storage increasingly difficult, for many reasons:
- There are more cameras
- The cameras are higher resolution, which means larger files
- You’re supporting a variety of devices
- Retention time is increasing
The result is you need to store (a lot) more data. And traditional IT data storage solutions for VSS data are unable to hurdle over these unique challenges. When unlimited scalability and performance matters, they fumble at the goal line. Traditional IT solutions simply can’t meet today’s VSS data storage needs.
