STEC to Sponsor and Participate at OpenStorage Summit 2011 as a Nexenta Systems Technology Partner
October 26 2011 - 9:25AM
STEC, Inc. (Nasdaq:STEC), The SSD Company™, a leading global
provider of solid-state drive (SSD) technologies and products,
today announced that the company is a sponsor and will participate
in this year's OpenStorage Summit hosted by Nexenta Systems, and
held at the Wyndham Hotel in San Jose, California, beginning today.
Highlighting STEC's sponsorship and participation at this year's
event will be a technical presentation by STEC Senior Product
Marketing Manager, Swapna Yasarapu, titled "A Full Overview of SSD
Technology and How They are Used to Extract Extreme Performance."
In addition, STEC, a Nexenta Technology Partner, will also showcase
a collaborative solution at the STEC stand that demonstrates the
performance and total cost advantages when using DataON's Storage
NX2260-Z system with Nexenta's flash-aware NexentaStor software in
combination with STEC's ZeusRAM™ and ZeusIOPS® SSDs as write and
read caches.
"The OpenStorage Summit is a good opportunity for our company to
present to IT professionals, CIOs and CTOs who are looking for
superior, cost-effective, high-performance solutions to solve the
most complex storage issues," said Manouch Moshayedi, STEC's
Chairman and CEO. "The powerful combination of a DataON storage
system, NexentaStor software, and our ZeusRAM and ZeusIOPS SDDs,
serves as a prime example of how we help our partners bring unique,
innovative solutions to the enterprise."
"Our growth continues to accelerate because we're at the
forefront of a fundamental change in the storage industry. Our
ability to incorporate the leading solutions of our technology
partners, such as STEC, fuels the growth of the OpenStorage
Summit," said Evan Powell, Nexenta Systems' CEO. "The flexibility
of our OpenStorage initiatives, and incorporating best-of-class
solutions, provide an open playing field for better price to
performance ratios. As our strategic SSD supplier, STEC is a key
technology partner in helping us deliver this kind of
differentiated value to Nexenta customers."
STEC's ZeusRAM SSD is a perfect fit for high performance
computing (HPC) environments as it is particularly adept to
handling metadata and logging applications. It solves the primary
challenge in these environments by providing high-speed access to
data while minimizing latency to a low sub-23 microseconds. This
capability is especially important to network attached storage
(NAS) and unified storage appliances that need high-speed access to
metadata on very complex and analytical systems.
STEC's flagship ZeusIOPS SSD family is built on the company's
fourth generations controller technology that delivers the most
consistent, steady state input/output operations per second (IOPS)
performance in real-world storage environments. These SSDs provides
long-lasting reliability, increased server utilization and reduced
total cost of ownership (TCO) in the data center by providing a
high-performance drop-in replacement for enterprise hard disk
drives (HDDs). They also provide more functionality in a smaller
footprint while reducing overall platform cost and power
consumption.
STEC leverages almost two decades of enterprise solid-state
knowledge and experience to deliver the most comprehensive line of
SSDs to the storage industry. For more information, visit the
