ATLANTA, GEORGIA – American Megatrends Inc. (AMI), a leader in storage and computing innovations, proudly announces the certification of its StorTrends® iTX Network Storage Software for version 4.0 of VMware® ESX™. Together with VMware ESXi™, Vmware ESX™ is the most widely deployed hypervisor in the market, and delivers outstanding reliability and performance for virtualization.

VMware ESX™ and ESXi™ are core components of VMware vSphere™, an enterprise-class virtualization platform that reduces IT costs and improves server consolidation capabilities. VMware ESX™ and VMware ESXi™ are “bare-metal” hypervisors that install directly on top of the physical server and partition it into multiple virtual machines that can run simultaneously, to share the physical resources of the underlying server and deliver hardware-like reliability and security to applications.

StorTrends iTX enables organizations to reap the benefits of storage centralization, enjoy the scalability of IP-based Storage Area Networks (IP-SAN), and leverage the ease of use and file-sharing of Network Attached Storage (NAS) – all in a single, intuitive storage software product. It enables businesses to use existing Ethernet networks to simplify data management and reduce storage complexity. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of today’s data centers, StorTrends iTX is cost-effective, scalable, and suitable for both novice and advanced users.

With enterprise-level performance, high availability and disaster recovery at an attractive price, StorTrends iTX with support for VMware ESX™ gives organizations using VMware the reliability, scalability and quality that are expected in the deployment of their virtualization and storage infrastructure. AMI’s VMware ESX™ Certification covers simultaneous SAN and NAS connectivity for two ESX hosts with a large number of Virtual Machines.

StorTrends iTX offers true, OS-agnostic High Availability, and its support for High Availability configurations is extended to the virtual environment though VMware ESX™. This means that the capability of the StorTrends appliances like the dual-dialect StorTrends 3200i IP-SAN to withstand potential disasters such as power outages, hardware failures, and network service interruptions to keep vital data safe and secure also extends to virtual machines running on top of the StorTrends appliance.

S. Shankar, President and CEO of AMI, commented that “AMI is delighted to announce this latest development in our support of VMware with StorTrends iTX Network Storage Software. We see that our customers are increasingly relying on storage and server virtualization with VMware in the battle against server sprawl and related costs. In direct response to the needs of our customers we have made support for VMware ESX™ a priority in the development of StorTrends iTX Network Storage Software. StorTrends iTX is the backbone of all StorTrends storage products from AMI, so deepening our support for the most widely-used virtualization vendor in the market represents an important stage in the maturation, development, and expansion of our family of storage solutions.”

AMI is a long-standing member of VMware’s Technology Alliance Program, an alliance of hardware and software providers whose products have passed the rigorous certification process designed by VMware to ensure compliance with its standards.
