Red Hat, teamed up with Super Micro Computer and Vantrix to further cultivate its thriving partner ecosystem. The company continues to accelerate the growth of its storage partner ecosystem of IT software and hardware leaders, which includes partners such as Fujitsu, to deliver comprehensive, proven and fully supported compute and storage solutions for enterprises managing petabyte-scale data.

With the addition of Red Hat Ceph Storage, Supermicro provides durable, scale-out storage platforms in 1U/2U/4U form factors to maximize performance, density and capacity. Combined with Supermicro’s server management software and dedicated Tier 1 support services, Red Hat Storage customers worldwide can now access a new, comprehensive suite of end-to-end, highly scalable infrastructure solutions that are optimized for enterprise and cloud-scale applications to deliver maximum value and dependability with lowest overall total cost of ownership (TCO).

Vantrix helps video service providers optimize media processing operations and deliver high-quality media experiences at the lowest possible cost. The alliance with Red Hat incorporates Red Hat Gluster Storage into the Vantrix Media Platform solution to offer high-performance data storage in enterprises deploying rich media and archival storage workloads.

When paired with the Fujitsu hyperscale storage ETERNUS CD10000 system, Red Hat Ceph Storage offers enterprises the speed and agility needed to realize the possibilities of the next-generation hyperscale environment. The combined solution addresses the storage needs of cost-sensitive service and cloud providers, research and public sector organizations responsible for maintaining large online archives, as well as media streaming and broadcasting companies. Financial institutions that require ad hoc access to historical data also benefit from this technology.

Ranga Rangachari, vice president and general manager, Storage and Big Data, Red Hat said, “Red Hat believes open, software-defined storage is required for enterprises to successfully manage petabyte-scale data storage. Today’s announcement reinforces the importance of our Red Hat Storage partner ecosystem that includes best-of-breed hardware and software technology vendors essential to accelerate the time to value for our enterprise customers.”
