Dataplex Systems Ltd, a leading UK provider of ICT consultancy services has today announced a technical partnership with Datacore, a leading ISV specialising in storage virtualisation, storage management and storage networking.

Dataplex and Datacore have partnered to allow Dataplex to deliver the end-to-end virtualisation strategy to our clients; Dataplex have a long history in Storage technology and have forged strong partnerships with key tier one storage providers (HP, IBM, EMC, NetApps).

Dataplex have been monitoring the storage virtualisation arena for many months and believe that the time is now right to consider this technology in any server or desktop virtualisation strategy.

Charles Barratt, Dataplex Business Development Manager says “The partnership between Dataplex and Datacore shows Dataplex’s ability to consistently deliver high value solutions to meet the needs of our clients. Dataplex believe that Datacore have the ability to execute and drive the storage virtualisation market forward whilst augmenting to our already impressive portfolio of storage technologies.”

Jamie Marshall, Dataplex Technical Director added to this by concluding “the Dataplex and Datacore partnership can deliver real value to both SME and Enterprise markets through the ability to deliver multiple disparate storage islands into meaningful logical partitions. The price point of Datacore is great, meaning our smaller clients can gain the benefit of SAN technology for a fraction of the cost; the throughput of SANMelody is phenomenal and has to be seen to be believed. Datacore coupled with our Hypervisor services (VMware, XenServer and soon Hyper-V) provides organisations with a compelling reason to consider virtualisation as a strategy and not just a technical deliverable, providing server consolidation, desktop delivery and business continuity with a tangible ROI."
