Tintri Signs Channel Partners

Tintri, Inc., the producer of
VM-aware flash-based storage appliances, announced new additions to
its network of channel partners.

New partners include EMEA and US-based organizations such as Ivoxy Consulting, LLC, Sovereign Systems, LLC, Datacentrix Holdings Limited, S3 Consulting, and Terrasystem srl,
among others. With its VM-aware storage solution
designed for virtualized environments, Tintri offers channel
partners an opportunity to extend their solution offering and build
relationships with their customers by delivering a way to store and
virtualize a broad range of applications.

The market opportunity for enterprise storage in virtualized
environments is estimated at over $10B/year and continues to grow.
As IT organizations push virtualization deeper into their core infrastructure, business applications such as decision support, ERP & CRM put
increasing stress on conventional shared storage. VDI adoption is another major
IT challenge that has been hampered by complex and expensive shared storage
infrastructure. Tintri helps enterprise organizations virtualize more of these
applications at a lower price point than legacy storage
architectures and with business agility.

"Nearly all data centers
are going virtual. Storage has long been seen as the single largest inhibitor
to virtualization projects, mainly due to the high cost of traditional storage arrays,"
said Stephanie Torres, virtualization practice manager at Sovereign Systems. "Tintri drastically simplifies
storage for virtual deployments with their innovative VM-aware solution –
which has opened new doors for us. Our customers are excited at the opportunity
to deploy Tintri, citing economic and data management benefits that simply
weren’t available before."

"Tintri has a compelling
value proposition that allows us to deepen our engagements with existing
customers and new prospects alike," said Eric Watson, managing principal at Ivoxy Consulting. "As a
value-added reseller, part of our value proposition is to keep an eye on the
ever-evolving storage landscape. Tintri VMstore is a unique product where it is
easy to sell value."

"We’re seeing a
tremendous level of interest from prospective channel partners for our VMstore
appliance," said Robert Villarreal, Tintri VP of sales. "As virtualization becomes mainstream, we
offer channel companies an intuitive and highly differentiated product that
accelerates virtualization for both existing and new customers. It’s clear both
our partners and customers like what we help them to achieve, which explains
the extraordinary momentum we’ve experienced since launching our first product."
