NexGen Storage and Veeam in Technology Alliance

To deliver accelerated VM recovery and DR

NexGen
Storage, Inc.
has formed a technology alliance partnership with Veeam Software, Inc. to deliver
instant VM restores, faster backups, and offsite replication
capabilities for DR.

The new offering, available to NexGen customers at no
additional cost, allows customers to replicate data from a NexGen Storage system
to any other storage system supported by Veeam and protects existing
storage system investments.

"NexGen’s cutting-edge solid-state technologies deliver fast VM
recovery speeds when combined with Veeam Backup & Replication,
" said
Rick Hoffman, VP of WW alliances and channels at Veeam.
"We are excited to partner with NexGen Storage to bring these compelling,
best-in-class solid-state storage solutions to customers.
"

With Veeam’s Virtual Machine-based replication, NexGen customers can deploy replication-based failover (same-site or remote-site) for
enhanced DR. Customers can protect existing storage system investments by
repurposing aging systems as replication targets. In addition, host-based
replication offers a simplified replication process.

NexGen’s n5
Series
storage systems deliver PCIe SSD storage with QoS. It
offers a solid-state performance guarantee that promises ten times more IOPs per
rack unit than any other disk-based array or thre times more IOPs per rack unit
than any conventional hybrid array, which ensures fast restores.

"Organizations are being challenged to reduce IT system cost
and management complexity, while at the same time meet the demanding workload
requirements of virtualized environments,
" said Jeff Janukowicz, research
director, solid state storage at IDC. "With its recently announced
performance guarantee and collaboration with Veeam to deliver high-speed backup
and recovery, NexGen is demonstrating the value of its purpose-built PCIe SSD
architecture that avoids the bottlenecks of conventional solid-state
implementations.
"

Veeam Backup &
Replication
provides recovery of virtualized applications and
data for VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V environments. It combined with NexGen’s n5 Series storage systems leverages PCIe SSD storage technology and integrated backup images to
enable VM recovery within seconds versus minutes compared with conventional
storage solutions. The combined solution delivers faster backups and more frequent
recovery points, and supports superior RTO and RPO.

"Combining NexGen’s PCIe SSD storage system with Veeam’s
leading backup and replication capabilities delivers an affordable and easy to
manage enterprise-class backup and DR solution for virtualized
environments,
" said Chris McCall, VP of marketing, NexGen Storage.
"We are pleased to partner with Veeam to bring our customers unparalleled
solutions and fast, guaranteed performance in demanding mixed workload
environments.
"

Pricing and availability:
Veeam Backup & Replication will be available with NexGen’s n5
Series storage solutions on Aug. 28, 2012 and will be offered at no additional
cost. List pricing for NexGen’s n5 Series systems ranges from $55,000 to
$108,000
.


NexGen Storage offered demonstrations of its n5 Series
performance management capabilities integrated with VMware’s vCenter Server and
is showcasing its PCIe solid-state storage system at
VMworld 2012 in San Francisco.
