immixGroup a leading public sector distributor to Offer Generation 3.0 storage Solutions from Scale Computing

Indianapolis, IN, May 27, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Leading public sector distributor now provides nationwide partners with Generation 3.0 storage solutions.

Scale Computing, a developer and manufacturer of Intelligent Clustered Storage™ (ICS) technology, announces a new distribution relationship with immixGroup, Inc., a provider of technology products and services to the public sector, to distribute Scale Computing’s commodity-based clustered storage solutions in the United States.

“immixGroup realizes that in today’s public sector marketplace, it is imperative to offer leading technology and storage solutions for our customers to meet their business objectives,” said Art Richer, president, immixGroup. “Scale Computing’s ICSä technology enables us to add award-winning, cost-effective, and high-performance storage solutions to our product portfolio that reduce cost, increase control, and make storage more convenient to government customers. With easier access to Scale’s products, our customers are the ultimate beneficiary.”

Scale’s storage portfolio is based on the company’s Intelligent Clustered Storage (ICS) technology, which enables users to add storage hardware, known as storage nodes, as necessary without suspending services or migrating data. IT managers are able to build out storage clusters, starting with just six terabytes up to the multiple petabyte range on a single file system. As a unified storage platform, Scale’s Starter Cluster line of products provides for simultaneous SAN and NAS services from a single pool of storage, providing enterprise-class, truly clustered, and highly scalable storage.

“We are excited to partner with immixGroup, as they share our belief that as the third generation of storage evolves, it will need to thoroughly address cost, control and convenience in ways that current architectures cannot,” said Scott DeWall, VP of Worldwide Channel Development, Scale Computing. “With its extensive track record and reputation in the public sector, immixGroup continues to be ahead of the curve by offering their government customers a storage solution that has no single point of failure, migrationless scalability, zero performance bottlenecks, and the lowest entry price on the market.”

Scale’s ICS architecture uses iSCSI, CIFS, and NFS protocols to create a scalable SAN / NAS solution with enterprise-class features and no single point of failure. Even if an entire storage node is lost for any reason, a user’s entire data store remains fully accessible with no interruption in service. In addition, because of ICS’ flexible architecture, there is the ability to mix nodes of differing useable capacities (1 TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB) in the same cluster with access to 100 percent of each node’s capacity.

Scale Computing’s Starter Clusters are available immediately from immixGroup through its extensive channel network of distribution.
