“Enterprise IT organizations need multi-cloud ready solutions—a cloud platform that can scale across geographies and be administered from a central location. That’s what this partnership brings to the table. With our combined solution, IT organizations can manage their cloud infrastructure from a secure, on-premises, virtualized and container-driven orchestration platform with Lightbits as the high-performance back-end storage platform. Our joint customers, like Starview International, save on costs, simplify their infrastructure, and enable faster application deployment.”
David Power, CTO, Define Tech
“To overcome customer challenges requires addressing both hardware and software infrastructure in the data center, and partnerships with innovators like VMware and Lightbits strengthens our position to deliver complete solutions to solve those challenges. The integration of Lightbits with Intel technology, especially for VMware environments provides private-cloud infrastructure and cloud service providers customers with an optimized cost-efficient, lower TCO storage solution while maintaining high performance and very low latency.”
Remi El-Ouazzane, Chief Strategy Officer, Datacenter and AI Group, Intel Corporation
“Lightbits is purpose-built for cloud-native, high-performance database applications. Our customers in financial services, gaming, and manufacturing industries see immediate business value in how Lightbits can speed time to market by provisioning storage services and cloud-based applications faster, in a secure and multi-tenant environment, while also lowering their TCO.”
Alexey Stolyar, Development Director, International Computer Concepts (ICC)
“The combination of Lightbits software and Micron NVMe SSDs delivers game-changing economics for cloud service providers of all sizes by enabling dynamic allocation of pooled fast NVMe storage. Our joint solution delivers an easily managed, shared storage platform that delivers improved performance, scalability and operational efficiency. We’ve run real-world benchmarks for Lightbits on four NoSQL servers and have seen performance exceed 250K operations per second, faster than local storage, while still delivering near-local latencies.”
Jeremy Werner, Corporate VP and General Manager, Storage BU, Micron
“Working with Lightbits and Intel, VMware is advancing its storage support with a strong roadmap for the NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) technology that gives data centers unprecedented remote access to NVMe storage. The addition of support for NVMe/TCP ensures that VMware hosts can better support modern applications that need high IOPS, low latency block storage solutions that offer large capacity and high density per storage server.”
Paul Turner, Vice President Product Management vSphere, VMware
“Lightbits’ NVMe/TCP protocol boasts higher performance and efficiency compared to Direct-Attached NVMe, Fibre Channel storage arrays, and iSCSI, while also reducing TCO. This partnership will establish a stronger AI storage solution lineup for Comtec.”
