OSNEXUS Recognized on 2016 Emerging Vendors List

BELLEVUE, Wash., July 20, 2016 -- OSNEXUS, the leading developer of Software Defined Storage (SDS) solutions, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named OSNEXUS to its 2016 list of Emerging Vendors. This annual list recognizes recently founded, up-and-coming technology suppliers who are shaping the future of the IT channel through unique technological innovations. In addition to celebrating these standout companies, the Emerging Vendors list also serves as a valuable resource for solution providers looking to expand their portfolios with cutting-edge technology.

OSNEXUS focuses on continuous Software Defined Storage innovation with a strong focus on product quality and industry leading support. Software Defined Storage enables enterprises to use commodity server hardware interchangeably for compute and storage as opposed to traditional storage solutions that lock IT organizations into proprietary hardware and filesystems with limited protocol support. OSNEXUS, with its QuantaStor SDS platform, is the only SDS vendor that delivers a unified, scale-out file, block and object platform on open filesystems to form storage grids up to 64 physical or virtual storage appliances and 64 PB locally or dispersed across geographies.

"The select group of companies on our Emerging Vendors list have already made a name for themselves in their short time in the IT community, introducing leading-edge technologies with the potential to transform their segments of the IT market," said Robert Faletra, CEO of The Channel Company. "These tech suppliers are quickly making their mark on the industry and are the ones solution providers should watch in 2016."

"It's an honor to be recognized as a top emerging technology vendor by CRN," said David Feldman, vice president of worldwide sales of OSNEXUS. "Our mission at OSNEXUS is to help partners achieve mutual wins with our innovative software defined storage solutions that drive growth, and hardware margins, as well as ensure customer and partner satisfaction with every deployment."

The Emerging Vendors list will be featured in the August 2016 issue of CRN and online at www.crn.com/emergingvendors.
