Allsystems to Resell Proximal Data

Proximal Data, Inc., a provider of
server-side caching solutions designed for virtualized
environments, announced a partnership with Allsystems BV, an IT systems management
solutions provider based in the Netherlands.

Allsystems will sell AutoCache, Proximal Data’s virtual cache software, to
companies located largely in the Netherlands but also in neighboring countries
such as Luxembourg, Belgium and Germany.

Allsystems customers are primarily
organizations in the financial, government and health care sectors. AutoCache
eliminates I/O bottlenecks in virtualized servers with adaptive I/O caching,
increasing VM density, efficiency and performance.

"Our customers often face issues with the
performance of their applications and the speed with which they can run reports
and complete processes," said Ruud van Heusden, owner of Allsystems.
"AutoCache addresses performance
issues with a unique understanding of diverse storage I/O workloads, helping
customers better manage their I/O and increase virtual computing density."

"Allsystems is an IT systems provider that
understands companies’ storage needs and specializes in helping customers
improve the operation and management of their virtualized environments,"
said Rory Bolt, CEO of Proximal Data. "By
partnering with Allsystems, we have the opportunity to extend the availability
of AutoCache and provide customers in Western Europe with an affordable caching
solution that is easy to implement and integrates seamlessly at the hypervisor
level to solve I/O bottlenecks."

AutoCache increases VM
density up to three times, with no impact on IT operations. It plugs into hypervisors, such as VMware’s ESXi, and
works on all I/O without requiring agents in guest OSs. AutoCache places the
hot I/O onto a PCIe flash card or SSD and intelligently supplies
priority data traffic to VMs. It works within a VMware environment
without disrupting operations such as vMotion and can be managed from within
vCenter/vSphere.
