Infortrend is Milestone Solution Partner
To combine torage systems with IP video surveillance management software
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on July 8, 2011 at 3:04 pmInfortrend Technology, Inc. announced a partnership whereby Infortrend is a Milestone Systems‘ Solution Partner (MSP).
Infortrend’s ESVA and EonStor DS storage systems are compatible with Milestone software, and customers can operate in video surveillance applications featuring Milestone solutions.
Infortrend systems offer data storage to meet the requirements of demanding application environments, and are reliable to ensure data availability. Supporting 3TB disk drives, the storage arrays offer capacities for video surveillance. Users can choose between SAN systems (Fibre Channel or iSCSI connectivity) or DAS systems (SAS connectivity) based on their own datacentre requirements.
In addition, the systems offer scaling capabilities. Users can flexibly add expansion enclosures for extra capacity, or take advantage of the scale-out technology on ESVA systems, which enables linear scaling of capacity and performance by adding systems to an existing storage pool. With these capabilities, users can gradually expand capacities based on actual business needs and pay as they grow, without large upfront investments.
Martin Friis-Mikkelsen, Head of Strategic Alliances at Milestone Systems, stated: "At Milestone, we strive to make our IP video management software scalable for as many user needs as possible, and by partnering with a leading storage vendor such as Infortrend we ensure that we move closer to that goal. Milestone customers can now also choose flexible storage from Infortrend systems for their video surveillance environments."
Thomas Kao, director of product planning at Infortrend, said: "We are constantly on the loOkout for ways to better integrate our storage systems in user environments. Milestone’s IP video management software has been widely adopted by a large number of customers around the world, and becoming a Milestone Solution Partner offers us a great opportunity to further strengthen our advantages in the video surveillance market."
