Topic:  Datrium - Open Converged Infrastructure for Hybrid Clouds

 

Presentation:

 

Gone are the days that IT staff want to configure, manage, and troubleshoot their infrastructure.  IT administrators demand simplicity; all that matters is that applications run simply, reliably and fast.

 

Hyperconverged Infrastructure (“HCI”) took a first step towards enabling this new computing paradigm, which according to Gartner will reach $10 Billion in sales by 2021.

 

The next step is Open Converged Infrastructure, which provides a powerful, cost-effective yet simple approach to increasing system/application performance under increased workloads.  This new breed of convergence is:

 

·  Simpler than Hyperconverged without vendor lock-ins

·  Faster than All Flash Arrays

·  No Backup Silos

 

Datrium delivers a new breed of tier-1 converged infrastructure with consumer-grade simplicity by combining compute, primary and secondary storage, and cloud backup into a single platform.

 

Datrium DVX extends beyond HCI to address both mission critical, low latency workloads as well as backup and cloud data management for hybrid clouds.

 

 

Presented by:    Bryce LeBlanc, Principal Systems Engineer – Pacific Northwest, Datrium

 

 

It should be another terrific presentation so plan now to attend and bring a guest!

 

As always, we will have pizza (and now salad!) (sponsored by Datrium!) available for your eating pleasure along with door prizes and free information!
