PARIS, March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- RISE Storage Networks, a leading provider of innovative storage and SAN solutions in France, announced today that the company has agreed to team with DataCore Software to market and sell disk servers, iSCSI appliances, and Virtual Infrastructure software based on DataCore SANmelody(TM). Through this arrangement, RISE will deliver DataCore's automated Virtual Capacity software, the flexibility of hardware independence and unmatched price performance and cost savings of SANmelody based systems to SMB and Enterprise level users. RISE has set up an extensive demo center in Paris to showcase and demonstrate DataCore's advanced feature set and to work with its customers to design solutions to fit their needs. System integrators (SIs) and value added resellers (VARs) now have immediate access to a range of storage, expertise, services and productivity software from which to tailor affordable iSCSI/LAN and Fibre Channel SAN end-user storage solutions.
"RISE has the know how to deliver value solutions that add the productivity and flexibility of DataCore virtualization and SAN management to user infrastructures to address the challenges of storage growth," stated George Teixeira, CEO of DataCore Software. "RISE SANmelody solutions address the needs of Disaster Recovery, Non-disruptive Disk-to-Disk Backups, Remote IP Replication, Consolidation, and Business Continuance."
SANmelody allows users to easily add disk space over a SAN or existing LAN without the need to reconfigure hardware, open up systems or even reboot application servers. DataCore's powerful Virtual Capacity auto-provisioning lets administrators serve up massively large logical disk volumes, sized from gigabytes to terabytes. To application servers, these 'virtual capacity' disk volumes are simple to use since they appear, perform and behave just like any other locally attached disk. SANmelody transforms PC servers, disks and your network into cost-effective SAN disk server systems -- a far more cost-effective and flexible alternative to conventional storage arrays and SANs. Best of all, disk servers future proof storage investments since users gain choice and flexibility in which hardware they purchase or upgrade.
Maurice KAZES, Managing Director of RISE Storage Networks says, "With DataCore we have a platform with the flexibility to showcase our expertise in delivering cost saving solutions to our users. We welcome users to come by and see for themselves the simplicity and productivity that can be achieved in deploying a virtual infrastructure. DataCore accelerates the performance of all storage, enables hardware independence, adds reliability and dramatically optimizes resources and responsiveness through simple to use automated storage management capabilities. Let us show you the benefits and see for yourself how far storage virtualization has advanced."
