Astute will use OpenStack to provide flash storage to accelerate critical application performance for public and private clouds.
Astute Networks™ announced its support of OpenStack, an open source cloud computing platform for public and private clouds. By supporting the OpenStack Cinder standard as both an iSCSI target and a NFS server, Astute's ViSX appliance offers end users and cloud service providers alike a flexible and cost effective method for meeting their storage and application performance requirements when deploying infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
A recent report by 451 Research, titled, "OpenStack-related business revenue to exceed $1bn by 2015," predicts OpenStack-related revenue will grow from $600m in 2013 to $1bn by 2015. Astute Networks is well positioned to address this burgeoning opportunity with its adaptive ViSX storage appliances that accelerate application performance by 10x or more, enhances user productivity and lowers IT costs for physical, virtual and cloud environments.
