NCE Computer Sings SANmelody Disk Server Tune
Leading Reseller Builds Record Breaking Price/Performance SAN Solutions for the Public Sector
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. (November 11, 2004) DataCore Software, a leading independent software vendor specializing in storage control, management and consolidation, today announced that NCE Computer Group will build and sell SANmelody Disk Server solutions, appliances, and software in both the UK and the US. One of the key market segments to be targeted will be the public sector. NCE solutions use SANmelody software which recently set the price performance mark for disk subsystems in the Storage Performance Council's SPC-1 Benchmark. This market needs record-breaking solutions that allow users to easily add disk space to application servers across networks without incurring downtime. In addition, NCE is well positioned to meet the demands of the public sector for affordable Ethernet-based IP storage area networks (SAN) and cost-effective disaster recovery solutions.
In the public sector, technology needs to strike a balance between cost-effective standards-based components and targeted custom solutions for their unique requirements. We are successful because we offer them the best of both worlds -- the benefits of non-proprietary systems with the expertise to tailor the servers, software and hardware to meet the demanding needs of the industry," said John Geenwood, NCE's International Product Sales Director. "With SANmelody software at the core, we are able to build ideal storage solutions for our clients, because it allows us to deliver powerful, feature-rich and flexible storage network solutions at an affordable price while using standards-based Intel servers and inexpensive disks."
NCE has successfully sold high-performance storage networking solutions using DataCore software to a number of public sector organisations in the UK, including city government councils, major hospitals and educational institutions.
"The public sector requires storage functionality very similar to those of commercial enterprises - data protection, systems availability, rapid storage growth, etc. But they have to be more cost conscious and they need greater flexibility so they can get the most out of their smaller budgets," said Nick Broadbent, European Director for DataCore.
