TELECOMWORLDWIRE-April 24, 2012-NexentaStor SAN solutions chosen by TerraTel(C)1994-2012 M2 COMMUNICATIONS http://www.m2.com
OpenStorage solutions provider Nexenta Systems announced on Tuesday that Swedish web hosting provider TerraTel has chosen two NexentaStor SAN solutions to underpin its virtual infrastructure.
The deployment has enabled the company to save two-thirds of its storage costs. No other financial details were disclosed.
According to the company, after moving to a VMware infrastructure, TerraTel's existing storage infrastructure, which included a number of different SAN solutions, was unable to cope. The company required a consolidated, reliable enterprise storage solution to underpin its virtual environment.
NexentaStor, which is exclusively used for the company's VMware infrastructure, is built on enterprise hardware from Cisco (Nasdq:CSCO), creating two SANs. Each uses 2U rack servers with 16 disks to create a combined total raw capacity. Features include hybrid storage pooling, unlimited snapshots, deduplication and thin provisioning.
