Infinidat, a leader in enterprise storage solutions, announced its latest collaboration with US Signal, a prominent digital infrastructure provider. Together, they have rolled out the next-generation InfiniBox SSA G4 as the core storage solution for US Signal’s innovative Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform, OpenCloud.
As one of the few open-source cloud services available in the U.S., US Signal’s OpenCloud platform leverages InfiniBox SSA for its high performance, massive storage capacity, and 100% availability. This collaboration ensures effortless IT operations, cyber resilience, and flexible management, tailored to meet the demanding data requirements of enterprise clients.
John White, COO of US Signal, expressed the company's vision for OpenCloud as a groundbreaking platform that transforms how cloud hosting is perceived. OpenCloud offers unparalleled performance, cost predictability, and security, thus meeting the vital needs of enterprises seeking flexible computing solutions. Infinidat’s all-flash storage capabilities are pivotal for achieving these benchmarks.
The OpenCloud platform stands apart from traditional virtualisation technologies by providing a truly private and scalable cloud experience. With Infinidat at its core, users benefit from unprecedented capabilities, like rapid provisioning and dynamic resource allocation.
David Humes, VP of Product at US Signal, highlighted the immense advantages of deploying Infinidat's solutions, noting that the cloud-like flexibility of their new offering sets it apart from standard virtualisation services, making it ideal for dynamic storage requirements.
US Signal sought a superior storage system with exceptional performance, low latency, and robust reliability to anchor their cloud offerings. Having evaluated several solutions, InfiniBox SSA G4 emerged as the optimal choice, surpassing the competition in terms of cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency.
Operationally streamlined, OpenCloud showcases significant performance enhancements, costing half as much per petabyte as other providers. US Signal efficiently manages over 27 petabytes of Infinidat storage resources with minimal personnel, thanks to the platform’s intuitive, automated processes.
Overall, US Signal’s OpenCloud solution—with the backing of InfiniBox SSA—redefines the cloud landscape with unmatched speed, reliability, and cyber resilience.
With this strategic enhancement, US Signal reinforces its position as a major player in the market, offering transformative value through its recovery-as-a-service and Veeam backup solutions. This is powerfully exemplified by InfiniBox's prevalence across 28% of Fortune 50 corporations, providing testament to its adaptability and enterprise efficacy.
Steve Sullivan, CRO at Infinidat, praised US Signal's forward-thinking approach, enabling them to leverage InfiniBox for a significant competitive edge in the cloud services arena, thus elevating their client offerings to new heights.
