About Zettar

Zettar Inc. delivers a GA-grade, scale-out, petascale-proven, all-in-one hyperscale data distribution software solution capable of multi-100+Gbps. We help businesses defy data gravity and realize data agility. Modern IT is driven by the four giants: storage, computing, networking, and hyperscale data distribution. Zettar aims to be at the heart of the 4th giant. It is a critical enabler of large scale enterprise digital transformations.

Unlike all other commercial data transfer software, all of which belong to the legacy (decade+ old) Managed File Transfer (MFT) category, Zettar zx has a ground breaking design and establishes the brand new "hyperscale data distribution" category for modern digital businesses. Zettar is a fully revenue-supported startup in Palo Alto, California. It has also been awarded grants by both the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science.

Zettar zx is the world's only data transfer software whose performance is unaffected by distance, encryption, and checksumming. This is a Holy Grail that numerous parties, both academic and commercial, have tried hard to find for decades, but all have failed. The tremendous value to the business efficiency of all distributed data-intensive enterprises should be evident.

Zettar has deployed its solution at a large global biopharmaceutical company, a US DOE Exascale Computing Project (ECP) project, a hyperscale Web property, a well-known research university, and more. Many use cases involve the moving of multiple petabytes of data over distance.
