CloudByte All-flash Appliance ESA-1000 Leverages SanDisk InfiniFlash System

With an effective capacity of 2PB, ESA-A1000 delivers storage for up to 1000 applications in a single system for both Cloud Service Providers and Enterprises

CloudByte, a leading provider of enterprise storage for virtual environments, extends their storage appliance portfolio by delivering a revolutionary storage system that combines CloudByte ElastiStor, the first containerized enterprise storage solution and InfiniFlash™, the new industry-leading, all-flash memory solution from SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK), a global leader in flash storage solutions.

“It’s a tale of two next-generation storage technologies—a coupling of the future of flash and the future of software-defined storage,” said Felix Xavier, CEO and founder of CloudByte. “Truly a historic moment considering that the symbiosis results in success stories built on performance, capacity, and reliability with the best-in-class TCO but without compromise on essential capabilities for secure multi-tenant environments.”

SanDisk’s InfiniFlash IF100 all-flash storage system delivers massive capacity, extreme performance, and superior reliability, while significantly reducing data center complexity and costs. ElastiStor provides full enterprise storage and networking capabilities. Storage management is made easy, as it is preconfigured with the environment needed to support the specified number of applications or VMs. Unifying both, ESA-A1000 offers guaranteed quality of service (QoS) to every application from a shared storage platform. With CloudByte’s on-demand performance provisioning, service providers and enterprises can easily scale to thousands of applications and meet their most challenging performance demands.

“CloudByte’s ESA storage architecture leverages SanDisk flash memory technology to accelerate data access and improve quality of service for their customers. We are pleased to be working with CloudByte to bring this revolutionary approach to Cloud storage from concept to reality,” said Ravi Swaminathan, VP and GM of Storage Systems and Software. “CloudByte maximizes the capabilities of SanDisk’s InfiniFlash system which delivers extreme performance and massive capacity with high reliability to increase usable capacity in their new ESA.”
