CRN names Infinidat in cloud storage category​
​​
The Cloud 100 list by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, and the trusted resource for solution providers exploring cloud technology vendors that are well positioned to help them build cloud portfolios that drive their success recognizes Infinidat in the “Cloud Storage” category for its hybrid multi-cloud solution called InfuzeOS™ Cloud Edition for Azure and AWS.
“Infinidat is a cloud storage vendor that has taken hybrid multi-cloud storage deployments by storm with the innovation of our InfuzeOS Cloud Edition, a must-have tool that should be in every channel partner’s toolkit,” says Eric Herzog, Chief Marketing Officer, Infinidat. “We’re thrilled that CRN has recognized Infinidat on the 2025 Cloud 100 list as one of the top cloud storage providers on the strength of our cloud-native and hybrid multi-cloud solutions.”
Well known in data centres as a provider of enterprise storage solutions for on-premises and private cloud infrastructure, Infinidat significantly expanded into the public cloud in 2023 with the launch of its InfuzeOS Cloud Edition. This addresses the trend that many enterprises are leveraging with hybrid storage deployments and combining on-premises private clouds with public clouds.
InfuzeOS Cloud Edition’s newest support, announced in May 2024, extends the InfiniBox® experience into the Microsoft Azure public cloud, adding to the existing support for AWS that was announced in 2023. This expanded support for cloud-native/hybrid multi-cloud deployments has brought all the industry acclaimed enterprise data services and associated benefits of Infinidat to the cloud, including ease of use, automation, and cyber storage resilience.
Additionally, Infinidat’s expansion of InfuzeOS, its software-defined storage (SDS) operating system, to hybrid cloud environments has broadened the use cases that are ideal for the cloud, ranging from disaster recovery and backup to DevOps to burst storage capacity. Enterprises want this flexibility to decide where the best place is for workloads to run – whether on-premises or in the cloud. As a value-add, InfuzeOS Cloud Edition is easy and reliable for channel partners to use with their enterprise customers. It enables partners to increase their revenue and grow their business with new services.
“As customer cloud needs accelerate, particularly in the face of expanding needs for digital transformation and AI-based solutions, cloud innovation has become more important than ever,” says Jennifer Follett, Vice President, U.S. Content, and Executive Editor, CRN, at The Channel Company. “Each company on this year’s Cloud 100 list are breaking new ground delivering products and services that empower solution providers to expand their cloud offerings and meet their customers’ requirements. We look forward to seeing how these companies continue to advance cloud computing in the coming year.”
CRN’s Cloud 100 list will be featured in the February 2025 issue of CRN magazine and online here.
