Acronis has released Acronis Storage, the world’s first software-defined storage product with blockchain-based data authentication and universal file, block and object support.
The world around us is becoming increasingly digital and the creation and value of data has expanded to include all parts of business and personal lives. This puts extreme pressure on service providers who find themselves responsible for the integrity, safety and authenticity of customers’ data stored on their servers.
Acronis Storage addresses these issues. A fast, universal, safe, easy, scale-out, cost-efficient, proven software-defined storage solution with Acronis CloudRAID™ and Acronis Notary™ with blockchain immutable validation, Acronis Storage unites block, file, and object workloads using commodity hardware.
This presents an excellent business growth opportunity to Service Providers. The software-defined storage market size is expected to grow from $4.72 Billion in 2016 to $22.56 Billion in 2021, expanding at a CAGR of 36.7%.* Such market growth is driven by the advantages of software-defined storage solutions over traditional storage systems and the need for cost optimisation and easy management.
#1, Fast, and Innovative
Based on Acronis Hybrid Cloud Architecture and together with Acronis Backup, Disaster Recovery, Acronis Files Cloud, and Monitoring, Acronis Storage completes the product set available to Service Providers enabling them to meet the needs of their customers in the most efficient way.
Earlier this year Acronis announced a long-term partnership with Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula One racing team. For both organisations, leading-edge engineering is a huge component of success. Both Acronis and Scuderia Toro Rosso focus on leadership, high performance, and technology excellence, drawing success from vision, drive, teamwork and operational excellence. These shared characteristics can be summarised in three concepts: #1, Fast, and Innovative.
“Digital world is all around us. Just like many of our partners, Scuderia Toro Rosso fully depends on data. Our success on the track depends on data availability, making data protection a critical element in our business. We are proud to use Acronis technology to store and protect our most valuable asset — data,” said Scuderia Toro Rosso Team Principal Franz Tost.
Acronis and Scuderia Toro Rosso will celebrate the launch of Acronis Storage together with partners and customers at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, during the United States Grand Prix this weekend. Toro Rosso is part of the most technologically advanced and data intensive sport, and Acronis has the technology to store and protect valuable data. The partnership between the two companies is a perfect example of technological collaboration, innovation, and understanding the needs of today’s always-on digital world.
