According to DataCore, the purpose of the alliance is to provide mutual customers with an enhanced complete virtualization (server virtualization + storage virtualization) user experience, and to facilitate cross-qualification of their respective solutions on an ongoing basis.
Serguei Beloussov, CEO of Parallels, said: Businesses want to increase the efficiency and return on investment from their IT infrastructure and are recognizing the role virtualization plays in generating greater utilization, both in terms of storage and on their servers. Together, Parallels and DataCore can provide customers with an immediate return on their virtualization investment, and flexibility to meet or exceed tomorrow’s needs.
George Teixeira, president and CEO of DataCore Software, said: Our objective is to work together to give our mutual customers the very best that the combination of storage and server virtualization can offer. A DataCore and Parallels combination is a great choice for customers, because they each offer significant capability, performance and price advantages, and have track records of satisfied customers.
