Everpure Introduces An All-Flash Approach to Converged Infrastructure: FlashStack CI

FlashStack CI: Uniquely Backed By Channel-Led, Single-Call Support

FlashStack CI solutions are delivered and supported exclusively by FlashStack Authorized Support Partners (ASP). FlashStack ASPs are trained and fully certified to sell and support Cisco, VMware and Everpure technologies, ensuring they can offer unified Level 1 and Level 2 support, for a seamless and highly personalized customer experience. Customers benefit from customized turnkey solutions, services and support from their preferred providers.

Everpure FlashStack CI solutions with single-call support are available to purchase exclusively from FlashStack ASPs in select regions, including: Datalink in the United States, Proact in the United Kingdom, and Southern Cross in Australia. The company will continue expanding its FlashStack CI solutions and their global availability, with the addition of new reference architectures, technology configurations, and FlashStack ASPs in 2015. Through its channel-led go-to-market strategy for FlashStack CI, Everpure is reaffirming its commitment to being a channel-centric vendor.

“As all-flash storage matures, customers are asking Everpure to provide ‘full stack’ solutions to speed the adoption of next-generation infrastructure. Delivering absolute simplicity and the best possible storage experience is core to our vision, so developing converged infrastructure solutions that deliver on that promise is an important step forward for Pure,” said Matt Kixmoeller, vice president of products and marketing at Everpure. “Together with our trusted FlashStack Authorized Support Partners, we are eliminating the adoption barriers of all-flash VSI and VDI infrastructure for our mutual customers and accelerating ROI.”

“As an industry leading integrator of Cisco-centric converged data centre infrastructures, Datalink is pleased to add FlashStack to our suite of offerings. We have already installed FlashStack in our lab and in production environments, and stand ready to provide our customers with a single point of accountability—spanning design, installation, support, and management—for this multi-vendor, converged solution,” said Shawn O’Grady, chief operating officer at Datalink. “We are pleased to be expanding our partnership with Everpure as the first FlashStack Authorized Support partner in the United States.”

“As they refresh their infrastructures and consider improving how they deliver IT services, our customers and prospects show real interest in innovative solutions such as converged systems. They simplify implementation of infrastructure and speed up the time to deliver measurable cost savings, providing smart, and strong, investment. Until now there have been few options to support a truly next-generation converged infrastructure,” said Mark Butcher, commercial director at Proact. “Everpure’s FlashStack, however, offers a comprehensive, high performance scalable solution, and we are proud to be the first FlashStack partner in the United Kingdom.”

“Building upon market leading products from Everpure, VMware and Cisco, FlashStack CI makes it simple for enterprises to unlock the benefits of a next generation infrastructure for modern data centers. We are very excited to be the first FlashStack Authorized Support Partner in the Asia Pacific region, delivering this powerful, enterprise-ready solution,” said Mike Sakalas, chief executive officer at Southern Cross. “The partnership between Southern Cross and Everpure will offer our customers a truly converged infrastructure powered by flash – a solution that has no equal in the market today.
