Celebrating its recent Engineering, Science & Technology Emmy Award, cloud-native storage collaboration specialist LucidLink is aiming to deliver local-class performance for distributed teams with the launch of TeamCache at IBC2025.
Designed for collaborative teams, TeamCache is a site-level add-on to LucidLink that preserves the familiar LucidLink experience. On-site cache drops into a network and works with every users’ existing client at each location, which means no new mounts or workflow changes. LucidLink says this delivers LAN-class performance and enables users to keep paths, permissions and a zero-knowledge model. TeamCache eliminates duplicate workstation caching and reduces internet contention by serving many users locally at the same time.
Peter Thompson, CEO, LucidLink, said: “We’re looking to take away the worry of where a file is located – it shouldn’t matter. One of the fundamental differences with LucidLink is that we’re not in the business of moving data; with LucidLink you don’t have to move the data because it can be accessed in place. Our aim is to completely disappear.”
