SANTA CLARA, Calif.—March 30, 2016 — Nexenta (@Nexenta), the global leader in Open Source-driven Software-Defined Storage (OpenSDS), today announced a strategic partnership with Lenovo, the world’s number one PC maker and third largest worldwide x86 server provider, to drive broader adoption of next-generation software storage solutions.
"Rapid data growth coupled with modest budget increases are forcing vendors and customers to rethink their storage strategies by leveraging software-based storage as an alternative to traditional storage to meet their business demands,” said Henry Baltazar, Research Director, Storage at 451 Research. “Lenovo is an established server provider with extensive international reach and by now leveraging a partnership with Software-Defined Storage pioneer Nexenta, the company is in a position to offer customers comprehensive storage solutions unavailable via legacy storage companies.”
The companies are working together to introduce solutions that integrate Nexenta’s award-winning, Software-Defined Storage, with Lenovo x86 servers, and joint go-to-market strategies. The combined solutions will offer Lenovo customers worldwide, both scale-up and scale-out reference architectures on all flash, hybrid, and spinning media systems. These solutions with Lenovo’s industry leading service and support will deliver a new standard for Software-Defined Storage.
“We are super excited about our partnership with Lenovo as they enter the fast-growing and market-disruptive Software-Defined Storage market with a strong server market share and global presence,” said Tarkan Maner, CEO and Chairman at Nexenta. “We believe Lenovo and Nexenta’s partnership around joint go-to-market and service and support will transform the enterprise storage market with an innovative, collaborative, and enterprise-ready Software-Defined Storage vision and execution. They share our passion for providing their customers with a wide range of app and infrastructure-agnostic low-cost, Software-Defined solutions, service, and support delivering total freedom to customers.”
The collaboration between Lenovo and Nexenta offers flexibility to customers and introduces additional options for existing ones, by providing Nexenta customers with a new choice in servers and Lenovo customers with customizable enterprise storage solutions. Lenovo servers with NexentaStor will deliver file and block storage services. The future offerings are planned to expand to include NexentaEdge for scale-out block and object services with cluster-wide inline deduplication and compression.
“Lenovo recognizes Software-Defined Storage as the strategic storage solution to deliver revolutionary economics for enterprise and cloud storage needs,” said David Lincoln, General Manager of the Storage Business Unit at Lenovo. “With Nexenta we will deliver innovative, trusted, and scalable enterprise storage solutions, leveraging Nexenta’s deep storage software R&D skills and Lenovo’s proven enterprise servers. The solutions will give customers the freedom to scale their data to meet business needs today and tomorrow.”
The Lenovo and Nexenta solutions will be based on Lenovo’s award winning System X and NexentaStor, for storage from 100s of terabytes to petabyte scale. These solutions will address storage requirements for a wide range of enterprise workloads including virtualization, OpenStack clouds, general file sharing, and backup and archiving. While pricing will vary on capacity and media types, customers can expect cents per gigabyte for complete systems including 3 years of technical support. NexentaEdge solutions will follow soon thereafter.

Mark Templeton, Former President and CEO at Citrix—One of the Leading Software and Cloud Technology Visionaries in the World--Joins Nexenta Advisory Board
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – March 15, 2016 – Nexenta (@Nexenta), the global leader in Open Source-driven Software-Defined Storage (OpenSDS), today announced that Mark Templeton, former President and CEO at Citrix, has joined the Nexenta advisory board.
Templeton brings a wealth of experience in Software-Defined (SD) technologies having been influential as the inventor of Citrix’s SD workplace strategy. Believing that virtualization, mobility management, networking and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions can unite to provide businesses with unparalleled ability to thrive in today’s fast-paced, data-centric world, Templeton will share his insight and advise Nexenta as it continues to lead the OpenSDS market.
Templeton was appointed Citrix President and CEO in 1998 and 2001 respectively. Under his leadership, the technology company transformed from a $15 million organization with one product, one customer segment and one go-to-market strategy, to one of the most globally recognizable brands, including well know solutions CloudStack, XenApp, XenDesktop, and XenServer, with annual revenues exceeding $3 billion. Templeton retired in October 2015, leaving Citrix as the leader in mobile workspace technology.
“At Citrix, our vision was that a Software-defined Workplace was more productive, engaging and resilient,” says Templeton. “Nexenta’s OpenSDS solutions not only provide greater mobility and flexibility in the face of ever-more data demanding deployments, but they are doing so while also driving down critical IT infrastructure costs. For too long businesses have been at the mercy of the legacy storage vendors, Nexenta is giving the power back to the enterprise.”
“Yet again, we are delighted to be strengthening Nexenta Advisory Board with someone of Mark’s stature,” says Tarkan Maner, Chairman and CEO, at Nexenta. “His leadership and vision for Citrix were based on his belief that SD technology will be a vital aspect of tomorrow’s workplace and his expertise and network will be invaluable to us. The future is SD everything (SDx) and with Mark on-board, we’ll continue to be the torch bearer.”

Santa Clara, Calif. – March 14, 2016 - Nexenta (@Nexenta), the global leader in Open Source-driven Software-Defined Storage (OpenSDS), today announced that it will be showcasing its award winning software-defined storage (SDS) portfolio at WHD.global, March 15-17 2016, at the Europa-Park in Rust.
Participating alongside partner SanDisk’s booth, Nexenta will showcase its growing range of disruptive OpenSDS solutions, demonstrating how they are empowering the world’s largest enterprises to manage increasingly data-heavy workloads, both in and out of the cloud, with complete freedom over deployment set-ups. Visitors will be able to discover more about Nexenta’s flagship scale-up unified and block storage solution, NexentaStor, scale-out object and block storage solution, NexentaEdge, and the NexentaConnect software suite.
The new software-defined all flash solution, combining NexentStor and the IF100 InfiniFlash from SanDisk, will also be showcased. The pre-configured solution couples Nexenta’s NexentaStor with SanDisk’s IF100 hardware, together achieving more than one million (1M) raw input/output operations per second (IOPS), with sequential throughput of around seven GBps. In the face of ever-more demanding data deployments, the integrated solution empowers businesses with agile and scalable architecture that can manage the data deluge with industry leading TCO.
