“As decoupled storage becomes the de-facto standard in all virtualised data centres, it becomes increasingly important to show customers how the various server, storage and application pieces seamlessly fit together,” said Bala Narasimhan, vice president of products for PernixData. “The PPD program is an important step in this direction, complementing our robust partnership efforts with detailed design guides that underscore the simplicity and robustness of the PernixData platform.”
