FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., March 3, 2015 – DataCore Software, a leader and premier provider of Software-Defined Storage and Tier-1 Enterprise Storage Virtualization, today announced that its SANsymphony™-V, version 10.0.1, has successfully achieved Cisco Interoperability Verification Testing (IVT) compatibility certification with Cisco’s Unified Computing System, the UCS C-Series Rack-Servers. The Internet of Everything (IoE) continues to bring together people, processes, data and things to enhance the relevancy of network connections. As a member of the Cisco® Solution Partner Program, DataCore Software is able to quickly create and deploy solutions to enhance the capabilities, performance and management of the network to capture value in the IoE.
SANsymphony-V is DataCore’s proven 10th-generation software platform with 25,000+ licenses deployed at more than 10,000 customer production sites globally. Rigorous testing of SANsymphony-V and Cisco UCS demonstrated easily deployed storage solutions that can service both virtualized and non-virtualized clients in multi-site configurations. DataCore and Cisco partners can now provide 100% Cisco hardware solutions, end to end, covering storage, network, and compute needs in order to provide complete datacenter solutions with Tier-1 enterprise storage capabilities. These solutions provide enterprise-class storage features for both self-contained hyper-converged setups as well as architectures that allow independent scaling of storage and compute, all connected by a Cisco-powered network fabric. Optional new or legacy external block storage systems from third parties can be easily integrated into these solutions according to business requirements.
“Cisco UCS has become a leading force in enterprise computing infrastructure, and DataCore is excited to extend its capabilities to include the delivery of Tier-1 enterprise storage services to business customers,” said Steve Houck, COO of DataCore Software. “Software-Defined Storage allows organizations to have greater choice and protect their existing investments. SANsymphony-V and Cisco UCS combine to deliver a comprehensive, powerful, yet intuitive platform that allows organizations to address their storage needs and derive more value across their complete infrastructure.”
