Data Dynamics Enhances StorageX Unstructured Data Management Software Portfolio

Data Dynamics, Inc. announced enhanced interoperability between StorageX and EMC Isilon scale-out NAS as part of their participation in the EMC Business Partner Program for Technology Connect Partners.

The integration of StorageX and Isilon storage helps enable the intelligent migration of data across one or more datacenters from a single software platform. This allows users to more quickly deploy and simplify the administration of enterprise file storage environments and seamlessly discover, analyze, optimize, migrate and report across any storage configuration. StorageX maximizes end user value from Isilon storage by providing true data portability to next-generation storage infrastructures for cost optimization and efficiency. Now that Data Dynamics is a select partner, StorageX is available for purchase through EMC.

“As data growth continues to rise, many IT administrators are challenged with high resource overhead, infrastructure complexity, and management concerns across the data lifecycle,” said Piyush Mehta, CEO, Data Dynamics. “StorageX integration with EMC Isilon storage addresses these issues with end-to-end control over the movement of large distributed datasets using advanced policy-based automation to mitigate the cost and complexity of storage administration. Inclusion in the EMC Technology Connect as a Select partner allows EMC customers to have access to next generation solutions from Data Dynamics for maximum efficiency, agility and data availability.“

“EMC welcomes Data Dynamics to Technology Connect as a Select partner, demonstrating its commitment to excellence in technology, particularly in helping EMC customers make the transformation from legacy storage to Isilon,” said John Nishikawa, director, business development and alliances, emerging technology division, EMC Corporation. “The use of StorageX software will help simplify, automate, and streamline data migrations by reducing the time and effort required to consolidate workloads onto Isilon storage systems. We look forward to working with Data Dynamics to ensure that our mutual customers have the highest level of support possible for their data migration initiatives.“
