“The data center is in a state of transformation as the enterprise embraces software-defined and all-flash technologies,” said Eric Burgener, Research Director, Storage at IDC. “The introduction of solutions like NexentaStor 5.0 and NexentaFusion 1.0 is accelerating this change and simplifying the deployment and management of the storage infrastructure for the end customer.” With a modern state-of-the-art graphical user interface, intuitive workflows, DevOps friendly self-documenting REST APIs and rich storage analytics, NexentaFusion 1.0 and NexentaStor 5.0 deliver operational cost savings that rival the capital cost savings that have made Nexenta the undisputed SDS market leader. NexentaFusion 1.0 makes deploying, running and operating Software-Defined Storage infrastructure at any scale simpler than ever:
NexentaStor has a proven track record of successful deployments across a diverse set of industries, helping thousands of enterprises eliminate unwanted vendor lock-in, increase agility and reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) by 50 percent or more. With the introduction of NexentaStor 5.0, the award-winning file-and-block storage platform provides advanced All-Flash reference architectures and a new kernel based high-performance replication (HPR) solution that delivers continuous asynchronous replication for applications that require as close to zero Recover Point Objectives (RPO) as possible without performance degradation. Featuring interoperability via a redesigned multi-tenant VMware vCenter™ plug-in and VMware vSphere® Virtual Volumes™ support, NexentaStor is the ideal complement for virtual infrastructures regardless of industry. The new VMware vCenter Web Client Plugin (vCenter Plugin) for NexentaStor 5.0 provides a unified interface to manage any number of NexentaStor appliances. It simplifies administrator day-to-day operational tasks by allowing customers to incrementally scale storage by adding datastores from within the vCenter interface, identify performance bottlenecks and review capacity utilization trends. Augmented by local snapshots and remote replication, the vCenter Plugin enhances an enterprise’s data protection strategy. Integration of NexentaStor 5.0 with vCenter’s role-based authentication mechanism provides an added level of segmentation and security options for multi-tenant solutions, branch offices and even departmental storage solutions. NexentaStor 5.0 with VMware vSphere Virtual Volumes support allows all storage operations on NexentaStor to be performed with virtual machine granularity. Other enhancements in NexentaStor 5.0 include:
“NexentaStor 5.0 and NexentaFusion 1.0 not only deliver the industry’s most comprehensive Software-Defined Storage infrastructure to tackle today’s complex storage challenges, but it paves the way for tomorrow’s data center with its support of evolving technologies like All-Flash,” said Thomas Cornely, Chief Product Officer at Nexenta. “These new solutions offer unparalleled performance and ease of management while delivering operational cost savings that rival the capital cost savings that make Nexenta an undisputed SDS market leader.” Live demonstrations of NexentaStor 5.0 and NexentaFusion 1.0 will take place at VMworld 2016 in Las Vegas on Aug. 28-Sept. 1. “With a lightning quick UI, optimized UX, unified NexentaStor systems management and fine-grained analytics this release brings major refinements and productivity gains indispensable within Media and Entertainment environments.” said Pascal Filion, Head of IT at Moment Factory. “The new look and feel of NexentaStor and NexentaFusion is very solid and architecturally, it is well thought out by using the RestAPI,” said Evgueni Martynov, Enterprise Virtualization & Storage Analyst at the University of Toronto.
