Pivot3 was founded on the idea that the traditional data center could be radically simplified by unifying storage, compute, networking and virtualization resources into a powerful, easy-to-deploy solution that reduces costs, IT complexity, and organizational risk. Mr.Anand Chakravarthi, Area Vice President, Pivot 3, expresses that hyper-converged is gaining momentum and everyone is moving towards software defined and Pivot 3 has been a leader when it comes to software-defined storage and Hyper Converged Infrastructure and this transformation of data centre which will drive the businesses. “Redington is our distribution partner in Middle East and Africa. Our customers include key names in Govt., transportation, retail, hospitality, and manufacturing. Our plans for 2017 include energizing the data centre industry and educating the true sense of hyper-converged infrastructure. Vendors talk about hyper-converged infrastructure but the underlying technology has to be focused on storage and solutions that scale, we are extremely storage efficient and we achieve 94% storage efficiency compared to others which have 50% or less efficient storage,” adds Mr. Anand. According to Anand when a customer looks at hyper-converged he looks at reducing the data centre footprint and infrastructure to be a lot more agile, scalable and architecturally designed to run multiple workloads.
