Intransa Signs Strategic Channel Agreement With RedBridge IT to Deliver On Demand Storage Using Industry's Most Comprehensive IP SAN

Posted on: Tuesday, 11 January 2005, 09:00 CST

SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Intransa, the global leader in enterprise IP SAN storage systems, announced today the signing of a strategic channel agreement with RedBridge IT. This partnership will provide RedBridge IT and Intransa customers with the industry's most scalable, high-performance IP SAN family of network storage solutions for small, mid-tier and enterprise customers.

Intransa's native IP SAN product suite is designed from the ground up to leverage a company's existing Ethernet infrastructure, and uses the power of TCP/IP networking and the advantages of standard ATA disk drives -- making it a clear alternative to proprietary Fibre Channel solutions. Intransa's patented IP SAN IntraStor(TM) modular architecture allows customers to seamlessly tune capacity and performance independently without requiring a major forklift upgrade. Using Intransa's StorControl (TM) software, IT administrators can easily add an additional storage controller or disk enclosure without impacting performance or system availability.

"We are seeing incredible demand for our IP SAN systems from the department level to the enterprise," said John Noellert, vice president of North American Sales, Intransa. "Partners such as RedBridge IT are a critical component to help us fulfill the burgeoning demand for our products in the Bay Area. Intransa's networked storage systems are ideally suited for business critical online applications including e-mail server consolidation, backup and restore, disaster recovery, digital media, video surveillance, data warehousing/data mining, and near-line storage."

"RedBridge IT's approach is synergistic to Intransa -- to provide customers with cost effective, networked storage solutions that are designed to grow at the pace of their business," said Mike Chapman, CEO, RedBridge IT. "Intransa's modular IP SAN family provides real value for SMB and enterprise customers by allowing them to leverage their existing Ethernet investment without introducing a costly Fibre Channel solution into the equation."
