DataCore Achieves Category Leadership for a Software-Defined Storage Offering with Highest Rating in Independent Evaluation by WhatMatrix
July 2017 by Marc Jacob
DataCore announced that it has received the highest
rating for a software-defined storage offering in a rigorous, independent evaluation by WhatMatrix.
Moreover, DataCore achieved second place in the overall software-defined storage
(SDS)/hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) combined category, coming in at less than 1% below Nutanix,
the top rated product.
WhatMatrix’s mission is to provide a comparison platform driven by visitor demand and IT community
collaboration. The independent, third-party evaluation featured an in-depth technical evaluation of more
than 20 offerings in the SDS/HCI market from vendors including Atlantis, Cisco, DataCore, Dell/EMC,
HPE, Microsoft, Nutanix, Simplivity, and VMware.
Featuring a rich set of automated data storage services, automation and unmatched performance driven
by Adaptive Parallel I/O technology, DataCore offers powerful benefits not widely known by general IT
infrastructure professionals (but loved by customers and validated in independent surveys). These
include infrastructure-wide management from a single console, and a robust, hardware-agnostic solution
that can be deployed in multiple different configurations to best serve customer use cases
(hyperconverged, hybrid-converged, cloud, converged server SAN and storage virtualization). DataCore
is easily adaptable as the environment grows, works with any storage hardware that is already deployed,
and future-proofs investments as new storage technologies are introduced and cloud adoption continues
to grow.
