LONDON, July 3, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SoftIron, the leader in purpose-built and performance-optimised data centre solutions, today announced that it has been selected by Storage Magazine to receive an award in its 19th annual Storage Awards for 2022. Dubbed 'The Stories," the awards were presented at a gala event at the Tower Bridge Leonardo Hotel in London on the evening of June 9th, where SoftIron was awarded as a winner of the "Storage Innovators of the Year" category. SoftIron's flagship HyperDrive® software-defined enterprise storage portfolio is custom-designed to maximise the performance and efficiency, giving large enterprises and SMEs open source-based storage on which to build core-to-edge IT infrastructures.
"Congratulations to SoftIron, who has been chosen as the 'Storage Innovators of the Year'' for 2022, an award which celebrates true innovation in the storage arena among those who are making an impact with innovative new ideas," said David Tyler, Editor of Storage Magazine. "The Storage Awards winners are selected by a nomination and voting process driven by our readers. SoftIron is challenging storage orthodoxy with a fresh approach to storage performance innovation using open source combined with design optimisation at the hardware level. They're capturing the attention of our readers, making SoftIron our 'Storage Innovators of the Year.'"
"SoftIron is challenging the industry by offering a new way to think about the interaction between software-defined infrastructure and the underlying hardware," said Phil Straw, CEO of SoftIron. "We've built our HyperDrive storage appliances to be the ultimate productisation of Ceph, giving our customers an open-source, unified, distributed storage system designed for excellent performance, reliability, and scalability. The results are an integrated solution that offers SoftIron's customers the best in performance, price, and sustainability while eliminating vendor lock-in. SoftIron is innovating on virtually every front, using a modern, Industry 4.0 technology approach to drive new value into the core-to-edge data centre. We are grateful to receive the 'Storage Innovators of the Year' award from Storage Magazine for 2022."
SoftIron creates the world's best appliances for highly efficient, scale-out data centre solutions, delivering industry-leading performance on all critical metrics, including density, efficiency, capacity, speed, and heat emission. Performance breakthroughs are enabled through task-specific specialisation, optimising the performance of its operating software at a granular level and thus creating the ultimate productisation of open source Ceph. Uniquely, SoftIron controls the entire design and build process, producing all its products within its own manufacturing facilities. As a result, SoftIron offers 'Secure Provenance,' which is the auditable provenance on all of its data centre appliances. This enables customers to ensure that units are "clear-box" solutions, free of hidden componentry or embedded software - often at the root of common supply chain attacks.
The SoftIron HyperDrive family of products are available for POC and purchase. SoftIron offers traditional purchasing (CAPEX) and as-a-Service (OPEX) options. For more information, visit SoftIron's HyperDrive Storage page.
