According to a new press release, “Panzura, the leader in unstructured data management in the cloud, today announced the second generation of the Panzura Inside program. Panzura Inside features the new Panzura Freedom 7 virtual machine (VM) with 10X performance and scale, tested with leading hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) systems and all-flash arrays (AFA).  The program also includes a new starter bundle that can be downloaded and deployed in minutes with existing HCI and AFA systems, turning local flash storage into unlimited, high performance cloud storage for unstructured data.”

The release goes on, “When combined with a HCI system or AFA, the Panzura Freedom 7 VM enables enterprises to modernize their storage environments and eliminate traditional NAS (structured and unstructured), saving up to 70 percent. Panzura Inside helps enterprises non-disruptively take advantage of cloud storage economics, scalability, and resiliency while delivering the data center performance required by applications and users. Panzura Inside has been tested with Nutanix, Simplivity, Pure, Nimble, Tintri, and Tegile. ‘With Panzura Inside, enterprises are able to manage the explosive growth of both unstructured and structured data by transforming the complex and costly traditional NAS model to the cloud,’ said Patrick Harr, CEO for Panzura. ‘This new hybrid cloud NAS model results in up to 70 percent cost savings and delivers the speed and agility enterprises require to meet their growing data demands’.”
