Nexenta Sponsors OpenZFS Developer Summit for Second Year
Software-Defined Storage Leader Key Player in OpenZFS Movement
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – November 6, (5am) 2014 — Nexenta (@Nexenta), the global leader in Software-Defined Storage (SDS) (#softwaredefinedstorage), today announced sponsorship support for the second annual OpenZFS Developer Summit in San Francisco, CA, November 10-11, 2014. Nexenta is continuing their support as returning sponsors from the inaugural summit. Nexenta’s Saso Kiselkov also will present a session on Compression on Monday, November 10, 2014 at the Children’s Creativity Museum.
Nexenta is proud to sponsor lunch for both days of the event on Monday, November 10, 2014 at the Children’s Creativity Museum, 221 Fourth St., San Francisco, CA, and Tuesday, November 11, 2014 at Delphix office, 604 Mission St., San Francisco, CA. In addition, Nexenta is sponsoring prizes for the Hackathon on Tuesday, November 11, 2014. The goals of the OpenZFS (#openzfs) 2014 Hackathon are to collaborate with and connect ZFS engineers and to start work on some of the projects that OpenZFS would like to accomplish, including projects begun at last year’s inaugural event.
Nexenta has been a pioneer in using ZFS for its Software-Defined Storage portfolio. OpenZFS combines DRAM, flash, and hard disk drives to achieve the right balance of cost and performance for any given working set, while reducing the need for administrators to constantly monitor storage for I/O bottlenecks. By reducing both read and write latency with the use of flash in a ZFS hybrid storage pool, Nexenta ends up with a system that performs far better than legacy storage systems, while having a much lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
WHAT: OpenZFS Developer Summit 2014
TOPIC: Compression
Speaker: Saso Kiselkov, Nexenta OpenZFS developer
WHEN: Monday, November 10, 2014, 12:15 p.m. (PST)
WHERE: Children’s Creativity Museum, 221 Fourth St., San Francisco, CA

“We continue to collaborate with Dell and other key partners to provide customers with seamless end-to-end solutions,” said Thomas Cornely, Chief Product Officer at Nexenta. “We are relentless in our pursuit to help enterprises realize the potential of the Software-Defined Data Center. Customers can count on Dell and Nexenta to help them in their journey.”
“We were looking for a storage solution that could scale out as we grew. Dell, who already worked closely with the institute, suggested that Nexenta’s Software-Defined Storage (SDS) combined with its servers could provide the solution we needed. As a Nexenta partner, Dell was well aware of the software’s capabilities and its suitability for our requirements. The result is a storage solution that can manage data efficiently and cost effectively."
