RELDATA SIGNS DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT WITH SISNOR TO DEVELOP THE IBERIAN IP STORAGE MARKET

Sisnor To Offer Reldata IP Storage on Demand Solutions To Spanish and Portuguese Resellers

Stuttgart – March 9, 2006 – Reldata, a leading supplier of enterprise-class unified IP storage gateways, has entered into a distribution agreement with Sisnor, an established Spanish value-added distributor dedicated to providing security and storage networking solutions to the Iberian IT reseller market. Sisnor will launch Reldata IP Storage Gateway solutions in Spain, Portugal as well as Andorra and develop a strong market base for Reldata.

“Sisnor’s outstanding reputation, expertise and services in the Iberian storage networking market will help us to rapidly expand our presence in the Spanish and Portuguese IT reseller community,” said Alexander Jeffries, Reldata’s Director of EMEA Channel Sales. “Sisnor and Reldata together can now offer storage resellers a genuine ‘next-generation’ unified IP storage infrastructure, where administrators have no longer to decide between a NAS and an iSCSI SAN solution and are free in their choice of disk and tape storage resources; storage capacity can be simply consolidated and served up on demand over a distributed Ethernet infrastructure according to the needs of each end-user application.”

Sisnor will distribute the Reldata IP Storage Gateway 9200, an innovative data storage and protection management appliance consolidating multi-vendor disk arrays, tape libraries or Fibre Channel SANs into one single virtualized storage volume pool, which can be accessed via incoming block-level iSCSI and file-level NFS/CIFS (NAS) protocols over Ethernet infrastructures of an enterprise. This leading-edge storage virtualization technology also provides comprehensive data protection features on block- and file-level at no extra charge, enabling efficient and cost-effective backup and disaster recovery solutions.

"Sisnor's strategy is to work with the best-of-breed vendors and introduce innovative technologies opening up new markets to our reseller community," said Gabriel Sainz de la Maza, CEO of Sisnor. “The Reldata 9200 enables an enterprise-class, TCP/IP-centric unified SAN/NAS storage infrastructure, at a price which also makes it attractive to the mid-market”.
