Maxta Introduces Application-Defined Storage and Hyper-Convergence, Streamlining and Simplifying IT for Virtualized Data Centers

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 19, 2016/PRNewswire/ -- #Maxta ®, a leading provider of #hyper-convergence and #software-definedstorage solutions, announced today that it has further maximized the promise of hyper-convergence by providing application optimization with the latest release of the #MaxtaStoragePlatform ( #MxSP ™) and #MaxDeploy ™ appliances.

Maxta #ApplicationDefinedStorage provides the best of both traditional storage and hyper-convergence by empowering organizations to define storage attributes independently and easily for each application, aligning storage with applications. Maxta software enables the tuning of the virtual storage pool to the optimal configuration for a variety of workloads concurrently, including VDI, Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, SQL Server and Oracle Database.

Maxta MxSP software-defined storage solutions provide organizations the choice to deploy hyper-convergence on any x86 server, use any hypervisor, and any combination of storage devices. Deployed as either software or as part of a MaxDeploy appliance, the simplicity of Maxta's VM-centric solution reduces IT management to maximize cost savings. Enterprise-class data services, scale-up and scale-out capabilities, and capacity optimization empower organizations to hyper-converge, eliminating the need for SAN or NAS devices.

"Traditional storage allows parameters to be set to suit individual applications by carving out specific LUNs for each application. But doing that is cumbersome, and not always very appealing," said Tim Stammers, Senior Analyst at 451 Research.  "As well as reducing costs, hyper-convergence promises to simplify storage management, but it involves a single storage pool with a single set of parameters for all applications. Maxta's hyper-converged storage now allows different parameters to be set for different applications running inside virtual machines – but without the complexity of LUN management."
