OpenStack support
Tintri announced support for OpenStack Juno release using the native OpenStack Cinder NFS driver on all company’s storage systems running Tintri OS 3.2. Commercial support will begin with customers running OpenStack Juno with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6, with other distributions to follow. Tintri had previously announced support for VMware Integrated OpenStack (VIO) which allows organizations to build OpenStack deployment services on top of their existing vSphere infrastructure.
“For those organizations that are looking to run OpenStack in their environments, Tintri now offers multiple support paths for using Tintri VMstore storage with OpenStack,” said Kieran Harty, co-founder and CTO, Tintri. “This continues our commitment to support Tintri’s high performance and per-VM management to provide a critical storage foundation for OpenStack implementations. Interest in OpenStack from our customers, especially cloud service providers and enterprises deploying private clouds, continues to grow. Tintri now offers organizations the choice of a cloud-based architecture based on OpenStack with the benefits of VM-level management and performance.“
Tintri will deliver a native Cinder driver which will expose company’s VM-aware functionality to the OpenStack framework later in 2015.
Tintri plans to certify its Cinder driver with OpenStack distributions and contribute it to the community within the upstream OpenStack Liberty code base.
