Infinidat Earns Recognition from IT Analyst Firm GigaOm as a Leader and Outperformer in Primary Storage for Large Enterprises and Midsize Businesses

Infinidat, a prominent enterprise storage solutions provider, has been recognized by GigaOm, an IT analyst firm, as a Leader and an Outperformer in primary storage for both large enterprises and midsize businesses. The acknowledgment is outlined in two newly released 2024 Radar reports: "GigaOm Radar: Primary Storage for Large Enterprises" and "GigaOm Radar: Primary Storage for Midsize Businesses." Infinidat's InfiniBox® hybrid and InfiniBox™ SSA II solutions are praised for their "modern, AI-based hybrid storage solutions," "essential cyber resilience," and "robust storage and data protection capabilities." GigaOm highlights Infinidat for its cyber resiliency, reliability, high performance, versatility, ease of use, availability, scalability, cost savings, and comprehensive integrations for virtualized environments. The reports note that Infinidat is innovating rapidly with a core focus on cyber resilience and AI-based analytics.

Howard Holton, CTO at GigaOm, emphasized Infinidat's ability to meet the demands of modern data-intensive digital enterprises and address significant data management and protection challenges across private, public, and hybrid cloud architectures. Infinidat's focus on guaranteed availability, capacity, and scalable flexibility with solutions like the InfiniBox hybrid array and InfiniBox SSA II all-flash solution positions it as a leader in the field. Holton also commended Infinidat's efforts in ransomware protection and cyber resilience for primary storage, along with its user-friendly AI-driven management system.

Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat, expressed pride in GigaOm's recognition, stating that being ranked as a Leader and an Outperformer for both large enterprises and midsize businesses validates their differentiation, value to enterprise customers, and the ability to make a significant impact globally. He highlighted Infinidat's unique combination of capabilities, capacity, integration with AI-driven automation, and cost-effectiveness as setting a new standard in enterprise storage.

The GigaOm Radar reports recognize Infinidat's significant advancements in ransomware protection and cyber resilience, particularly with the launch of InfiniSafe®. In 2023, InfiniSafe was enhanced with cyber detection capabilities, marking an industry-first integration into a primary storage platform. The company's commitment to supporting hybrid cloud deployments was emphasized with the introduction of InfuzeOS™ Cloud Edition for AWS, offering a fully functional version of its on-premises system in the public cloud.

Infinidat has also taken steps to make its enterprise-grade storage solutions more accessible to midsize businesses. The InfiniBox™ SSA platform now offers partially populated versions at 60% and 80% of full capacity, allowing scalability to 100% without disrupting business operations or IT infrastructure. GigaOm analysts acknowledge the importance of this option, stating that it addresses the capacity and entry cost considerations for midsize businesses.

Infinidat's efforts in providing comprehensive storage solutions have been further recognized with the introduction of SSA Express in October 2023. This all-flash solution caters to midsize businesses, offering up to 320TB within a hybrid system. SSA Express delivers performance and availability comparable to larger InfiniBox SSA systems but at a smaller scale. By eliminating the need for a separate flash array for smaller applications and workloads, Infinidat aims to provide a cost-effective and efficient solution for enterprises.

Infinidat's suite of solutions encompasses primary storage, hybrid cloud storage, business continuity, and disaster recovery, all accompanied by guarantees for availability, performance, and cyber resilience and recovery. This year marks the second consecutive year that Infinidat has been recognized as a Leader and an Outperformer for large enterprises, while also achieving recognition as a Leader and an Outperformer for midsize businesses, signifying a breakthrough year for the company.
