Model9

Model9 helps IT leaders get rid of costly mainframe tape backup systems, as well as the associated software licenses, while transferring backup data management to cloud storage. The vendor’s software-only backup and recovery solution, Cloud Data Manager for Mainframe, runs standard mainframe backup and recovery operations to any IP-enabled storage device, making mainframe-specific infrastructure solutions unnecessary. Model9’s software also enables IT professionals to migrate backup data into a hybrid cloud environment to support new use cases for reuse of data.

ScaleFlux

ScaleFlux delivers data compression, decompression, and data filtering to computational-storage flash drives (CSDs) that offer high capacity and strong performance. The ScaleFlux CSD 2000 Series data path compression/decompression engines allow the drive to store more data per GB of available flash space, while maintaining performance levels, regardless of the read/write mix. While other compression platforms require modifications to the application, the solution from ScaleFlux is transparent and does not need application integration. These features make the solution suitable for I&O leaders on the hunt for an infrastructure solution for IoT edge, hyperconverged infrastructure, latency-sensitive databases, and big data/analysis use cases.
