Zadara’s flag- ship Edge

VMware has shown the

cloud and AI application architecture called the Weka Data Platform that helps seamlessly deliver speed, simplicity and scale regardless of where data needs to run. It is infinitely scalable across edge, core and hybrid cloud and multi-cloud infrastructures.

Cloud Platform provides automated end-to-end provisioning of compute, storage and network resources. The Zadara Edge Cloud works with pri- vate and public clouds and in colocation to let multiple tenants run compute and storage resources simul- taneously on the same physical machines without interfering with each other.

delivers what it calls “Uni- versal Storage,” using high-performance flash storage technology as a cost-effective replace- ment for disk-based storage. Universal Storage combines exabyte levels of scalability with multi- tenant quality-of-service tools to consolidate all data and applications onto one scale-out tier of flash.

DATA PROTECTION/MANAGEMENT/RESILIENCE VENDORS

The line between data protection, management and resilience is blurring as storage software and cloud vendors integrate technologies from two or all three of these previously isolated technologies into their offerings, which makes sense as these technologies all look to add value to the same set of data. Here are 40 vendors taking their offerings to new heights. Acronis Patrick Pulvermueller CEO Amazon Web Services Adam Selipsky CEO Arcserve Brannon Lacey CEO Asigra AvePoint Tianyi “TJ” Jiang CEO
