Datagres Partners With DataStax to Launch Automated Tiered Storage for Apache Cassandra
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 22 -- Datagres, a leading provider of Application I/O Intelligence, today announced general availability of its PerfAccel solution for DataStax Enterprise (DSE), the leading database platform purpose-built for the performance and availability demands of web, mobile and Internet of Things (IoT) applications, allowing enterprises to achieve higher scalability at lower cost without compromising on performance. As a member of the DataStax Partner Network, Datagres is able to use DataStax to power online applications that must remain in an "always-on" state across a broad range of environments.
"Enterprises are starting to adopt and scale their implementation of DataStax Enterprise across many verticals," said Narayan Sundareswaran, Vice President Business Development, Technology, Ecosystems & Infrastructure at DataStax Development. "Datagres PerfAccel addresses Apache Cassandra I/O Performance requirements with its innovative dynamic tiered storage, achieving tremendous scale without the need for expensive and over-provisioned hardware."
"With the ever-increasing rate of data growth, there is a distinct need for solutions that perform and scale, and do so economically," said Ranajit Nevatia, President and CEO of Datagres. "The Datagres PerfAccel solution - integrated with DSE - allows for building a highly optimized and scalable solution resulting in 50 - 80 percent infrastructure cost reduction."
