Intransa and ABREVITY to Offer Fully Scalable, IP Data Classification Solutions
OEM Partnership to be Offered Through Intransa StorAlliance Program
SAN JOSE, California — April 03, 2007
Intransa, the global innovator of network-centric IP storage solutions and ABREVITY, the technology leader in data classification and management software, today announced an OEM partnership to develop cost-effective data classification solutions that can be easily scaled to meet the growing demands of regulatory compliance requirements for the enterprise.
Achieving accurate data classification is becoming increasingly critical for all businesses in today's regulatory-intensive environment, but enterprises cannot afford to take the time to piece together solutions on their own. Well thought out, bundled solutions empower them to quickly implement effective data classification and policy management to meet regulatory compliance requirements. The combination of ABREVITY's fast search, discovery and data analysis combined with Intransa's StorStac IP product will enable customers to get information quicker via a scalable IP SAN.
“As market leaders, ABREVITY and Intransa are well positioned to provide the effective solutions required by all companies impacted by regulatory compliance and legal discovery requirements,” stated Jeff Whitney, vice president of marketing of Intransa. “The fully integrated bundle for data classification and management solutions planned by the two companies will be easy to deploy, yet will provide the granularity required by even the most demanding compliance requirements.”
ABREVITY's vice president of business development, William Reed agreed, “SOX, HIPPA, FRCP legal discovery and a plethora of other regulations are driving public companies to implement data classification solutions now - making this one of the highest-growth segments in the market. However, just as critical as the need for easy deployment, is the need for scalability. Our OEM partnership with Intransa will produce solutions that will be both easy to deploy and fully scalable.”
ABREVITY's sophisticated information classification and management (ICM) technology was selected as the Gold storage management 2006 Product of the Year by the editors of TechTarget's Storage Media Group. ABREVITY's products utilize "SLICEbase technology," which consists of a new metadata database and data modeling technology that allows for orders of magnitude better scalability to billions of records, flexibility for on-the-fly schema changes, file versioning and genealogy tracking for easy audit trail analysis and a distributed "parallel" architecture for multi-threaded scanning & indexing. All these capabilities are easy to deploy and manage in single or multi-site configurations.
Intransa has been shipping IP storage solutions since 2003 to customers around the world, and recently launched its latest generation systems, offering higher speed 2Gbit/second interfaces. A 10Gbit/second IP version, for ultra high performance requirements that exceed those previously addressed only by more costly and complex Fibre Channel systems, is in beta test with several customers.
“We're pleased to have ABREVITY as part of the StorAlliance program,” said Intransa's Whitney. “Beginning April, 2007, customers will get the best of the data management and IP SAN technology in a single, cohesive solution.”
