“World Wide Technology (WWT) is excited to work closely with Western Digital Corporation as a key reseller,” said Rich Harper, leader of the Object Storage Practice within WWT. “I’ve been impressed with HGST’s Active Archive platform and its ease of deployment, its performance throughput, as well as its very reasonable price per PB. Now, with the options to support an initially small-to-medium configuration, which can later easily expand to a jumbo one, it enables a much larger range of object storage deployment scenarios for our customers.”
“Our long-term product strategy is to deliver a flexible, scalable capacity model in order to satisfy growing customer demand for a wide array of offerings to capture cloud storage footprints that were not previously addressed,” said Barbara Murphy, vice president of marketing for Western Digital Corporation. “We are pleased to answer customer and end-user requests as object storage continues to proliferate throughout addressable vertical markets like media and entertainment, life sciences, and all things cloud storage.”
