“Tintri’s VM-aware storage resonates with our customers. When they see how easy it is to install, configure and manage Tintri, they’re blown away. And then when they realise they can guarantee the performance of individual virtualised applications, Tintri stands apart—and so do we,” said Chris Barnes, Vendor Alliance Manager at S3. “Tintri proves to our customers that we’re a strategic partner offering best of breed solutions to help them realise their virtualisation vision.”
