SGI, LSI Partner To Expand Storage Offerings

SGI has announced a global initiative with LSI Corporation to expand its SGI InfiniteStorage products with compelling new configurations powered by LSI. This expanded relationship will make available a wider breadth of LSI’s storage technology through direct and indirect sales force.

These new storage solutions include entry-level and mid-range enterprise RAID-based storage solutions with comprehensive interconnect support for iSCSI, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand and SAS. These solutions are application ready for the Oracle Database, VMware and Microsoft enterprise software, including SQL Server, Exchange and SharePoint. These new storage solutions will have heterogeneous support with the flexibility to tightly integrate with SGI compute line environments, operate as stand-alone storage and integrate into other OEM compute lines.

"This extension of our relationship with LSI will deliver SGI customers and partners superior storage solutions that are built on open standards" said Mark J. Barrenechea, SGI CEO. "This global initiative will enable our partners to better address their rapidly expanding data storage needs with the best solutions from SGI and LSI."
