Zadara Storage and consalco Open Storage-as-a-Service Demo Centre in Munich, Germany

In collaboration with Intel

Zadara Storage Ltd, provider of enterprise storage-as-a-service (STaaS), and IT service provider consalco GmbH. have opened a new STaaS demo centre near Munich, Germany, in collaboration with Intel Corporation.

Customers and prospects are able to experience the Zadara STaaS offering live and test the services using their own configurations. With this addition to the existing offering, consalco is optimally positioned to establish itself as a complete IT-as-a-Service provider.

Zadara offers end-users the opportunity to migrate to cloud services on-premises or off-premises either directly or through a variety of cloud service providers (CSPs). It provides enterprise-grade storage-as-a-service in any location (cloud, on-premises or hybrid configurations), supporting any data type (block, file and object) and connecting to any protocol (FC, iSCSI, iSER, NFS, CIFS, S3 and Swift).

These solutions combine servers based on the Intel Xeon processor E5 v4 family and Intel 3D NAND SSDs, with the Zadara Storage Cloud software architecture, to offer a fully managed, elastic storage service.

Zadara has leveraged Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) and the SR-IOV capability to increase overall performance of the Zadara Storage Cloud.

Customers of major cloud service providers can access Zadara directly from their cloud VMs and enjoy Zadara’s enhanced privacy, performance and data protection features.

On-premises customers can have the Zadara Storage Cloud physically located within their data centres and enjoy the same scalability, elasticity and economic benefits of cloud-based Storage-as-a-Service.

We are proud to launch the first demo centre combining Zadara Storage and Intel solutions together with consalco. In Germany, many companies are not familiar with the Storage-as-a-Service model. Having a physical demo centre will allow visitors to experience the Zadara Storage solution first-hand and get answers to any of their questions. We will demonstrate in a practical setting how our solutions can help companies to concentrate on managing their businesses, rather than managing their storage,” said Dani Naor, VP, international sales, Zadara.

We have established ourselves as a comprehensive IT service provider. Our customers want consalco. to offer the complete range of IT as-a-service. Zadara and Intel are our partners of choice in this regard. Our customers are increasingly requesting flexible, agile services that fit their business models,” said Dirk Ahlbrecht, MD, consalco. “With Zadara, we fulfill this demand with all-in-one solutions. In our new demo centre, customers and interested prospects will see first-hand how Zadara Storage offers them the flexibility, scalability and performance they require.

Intel Xeon processors and Intel SSDs are the foundation for intelligent, cost-effective, and efficient enterprise and cloud storage solutions that are transforming the data centre to be more scalable and agile,” said Raejeanne Skillern, VP and GM of the cloud service provider platform group, Intel. “The new demo centre will give cloud service providers and enterprises the opportunity to see first-hand the power of storage-as-service.
