New collaborations with Supermicro and Vantrix
validate the momentum of Red Hat Storage
RED HAT SUMMIT 2015 – Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the
world’s leading provider of open source solutions, today announced
it has teamed with Super Micro Computer, Inc., (NASDAQ: SMCI), a
global leader in high-performance, high-efficiency server, storage
technology and green computing, and Vantrix, a global provider of
media optimization and delivery solutions to mobile and video
service providers, to further cultivate its thriving partner
ecosystem. With today’s announcement, Red Hat continues to
accelerate the growth of its storage partner ecosystem of IT
software and hardware leaders, which includes partners such as
Fujitsu, to deliver comprehensive, proven and fully supported
compute and storage solutions for enterprises managing
petabyte-scale data.
Since 2013, Supermicro has offered Red Hat Gluster Storage as
part of its software-defined storage and server product offering.
Now, with the addition of Red Hat Ceph Storage, Supermicro provides
durable, scale-out storage platforms in 1U/2U/4U and full 42U rack
form factors to maximize performance, density and capacity.
Combined with Supermicro’s server management software and global
support services, Red Hat Storage customers worldwide can now
access a new, comprehensive suite of end-to-end, highly scalable
infrastructure solutions that are optimized for enterprise and
cloud-scale applications to deliver maximum value and dependability
with lowest overall total cost of ownership (TCO).
Vantrix helps video service providers optimize media processing
operations and deliver high-quality media experiences at the lowest
possible cost. The alliance with Red Hat incorporates Red Hat
Gluster Storage into the Vantrix Media Platform solution to offer
high-performance data storage in enterprises deploying rich media
and archival storage workloads.
Fujitsu and Red Hat have collaborated since 2014 to deliver a
hyperscale, software-defined storage appliance that provides online
data access in the multi-petabyte range. When paired with the
Fujitsu hyperscale storage ETERNUS CD10000 system, Red Hat Ceph
Storage offers enterprises the speed and agility needed to realize
the possibilities of the next-generation hyperscale environment.
The combined solution addresses the storage needs of cost-sensitive
service and cloud providers, research and public sector
organizations responsible for maintaining large online archives, as
well as media streaming and broadcasting companies. Financial
institutions that require ad hoc access to historical data also
benefit from this technology.
