Diomede for cloud-based green file storage
A new storage company called Diomede has been launched in private beta with an aim to offer low cost cloud-based storage that it claims to be energy efficient. Diomede allows customers to set file attributes to place them as ‘nearline’ or ‘offline’. Most data centers have their servers and disk drives operating all the time. These files have an access time which can be of five minutes or four hours. You’ll need an invitation code to try out this service.
The Application Programming Interface(API) has been provided for developers, that will allow them to make other applications using its resources and also allows them to view the power consumption and other details of the file. The applications may allow developers to set their redundant file backups to ‘offline’, and the cost is far less than the normal cost.
Deomede is under Steve Iverson, who was CEO of MediaMax, a file storage company with that was closed last year.
