Storage Made Easy File Fabric To Securely Integrate Wasabi Hot Storage Into Enterprise Ecosystems

October 25, 2017

London, 25th October 2017 – Storage Made Easy™ and Wasabi™ announced a new partnership today to bring together the enterprise file collaboration and governance capabilities of Storage Made Easy File Fabric with Wasabi’s low cost, high performance cloud storage service. The joint solution will provide unified visibility and control over on-premise and cloud infrastructure, helping enterprises to eliminate storage tiers and improve user access and retrieval speeds to their stored data.

With Wasabi, organizations now have access to high performance cloud object storage at a dramatically reduced price point. Wasabi’s hot storage solution is a real-time access, one-size-fits-all, universal cloud storage utility that allows organizations to eliminate complex storage tiers and avoid costly object lifecycle management (OLM) practices. Wasabi removes the requirement for managing classes of data differently based on its criticality and frequency of retrieval, creating a more predictable storage solution in terms of price, performance and security.

Storage Made Easy enables organizations to increase the value of this storage, by making it easier for end users to access from desktops and mobile devices. Shared folders, file sharing, synchronization and collaboration are available through a full suite of desktop, mobile and web applications. Additionally, corporate IT gains the governance and compliance controls that allow Wasabi cloud storage to be securely integrated into enterprise ecosystems.

“Storage Made Easy fits perfectly within Wasabi’s vision of providing an affordable, simple and secure solution for users to access and protect their data,” said Jim Donovan, Wasabi Vice President, Product. “Cloud storage costs and data access shouldn’t require complex and costly access and management strategies. Our combined solution will give users consistent, secure, easy and affordable access to distributed content while also improving collaboration and productivity.”

Steven Sweeting, Director of Product Management of Storage Made Easy said, “We have been working closely with Wasabi and are pleased to be able to offer our customers a new simpler cost-effective storage option. Wasabi’s straightforward configuration and pricing as well as support for compliance-ready features such as immutable storage complements our own focus on ease of use and corporate governance. It’s storage made easy!”

ABOUT STORAGE MADE EASY (SME)

The Storage Made Easy Enterprise File Fabric enables IT to regain control of "cloud data sprawl" to unify on-premises and on-cloud files into a single easily managed converged infrastructure with policy-based controls for governance, audit and security.

The File Fabric solution provides a “blanket” enterprises wrap around all their data: on premises, within public and public clouds, as well as on third-party software vendor clouds (SharePoint Online and Salesforce for example).

Customers use the SME File Fabric product to unify corporate data to enable workgroup collaboration with universal controls for security, encryption, audit, and data access. Companies will have access to a greater understanding of where and how sensitive data is stored, transferred, and accessible with particular focus on how companies are able to police and audit data to ensure enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) in addition to other regional data legislation.

Storage Made Easy is the trading name of Vehera LTD.
