SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
Dec. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- DDN®, the global leader in artificial intelligence (AI)
and multicloud data management, today announced that it has leaped
into the rankings of major all-flash array vendors as tracked by
IDC, a leading global analyst firm, over the first half of 2019.
Through organic growth, investment in recent acquisitions and the
closing of the transaction with Western Digital (NASDAQ:
WDC) for the IntelliFlash™ business unit, DDN built an
all-flash array portfolio which grew at a much larger percentage
(78.7%) than rivals such as Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage
and IBM.
Organizations are increasingly looking for easy-to-use, robust
and highly scalable data management solutions, that can be flexibly
deployed in multicloud environments and deliver faster insight
while maximizing the value of their complex distributed data. To
address the emergence of AI and Deep Learning, the move to
multicloud and the need for real-time business insights that rely
on vast amounts of data, DDN has created a portfolio ready to
deliver best-in-class AI-enabled data management solutions across
analytics, IoT, multicloud, and virtualized environments.
This completeness of vision, coupled with a strong history of
execution, is validated by Coldago Research's File Storage Map,
placing DDN as a leader in the market. Coldago has identified the
convergence of HPC and enterprise file sharing, the rise of
parallelism to address IO bottlenecks, and the adoption of
technologies like NVMe, as key factors affecting the file storage
market. In addition, the research firm identified integrated data
management as a key capability going forward.
"In the pursuit of digital modernization, many of our customers
are facing a future that appears more complex and difficult to
manage, especially in unpredictable multicloud deployments," said
Alex Bouzari, CEO and co-founder,
DDN. "It is increasingly critical for organizations to connect the
right data to the right compute over the right interface at the
right time. Our products and services are engineered to excel
across all platforms and all providers, simultaneously. No one else
in the marketplace delivers such a degree of data management
freedom, flexibility and scalability."
Over the past 18 months, DDN has delivered an AI infrastructure
architecture with its A3I™ platforms, reinvigorated the
Tintri® business unit, integrated the Nexenta® software defined
storage offerings and completed the acquisition of IntelliFlash.
The latter three offerings will be the foundation for DDN's
Enterprise division. Combined, the DDN family of companies is the
premier provider of AI and Data Management software and hardware
solutions, spanning edge to core for intensive workloads such as
AI, Big Data and IoT, while being platform and vendor agnostic, and
fully enabling to private and multiple public clouds deployment
models.
