Catalogic Software Introduces ECX Copy Data Management for HPE Nimble Storage

Catalogic Software, a developer of innovative data protection solutions, announced today that its flagship ECX copy data management (CDM) solution now supports the HPE Nimble Storage all flash and hybrid array storage systems. Catalogic ECX will enable HPE Nimble Storage customers to further modernize existing IT operations by providing additional automation, user self-service and API-based operations without the need for any additional hardware. 

Catalogic ECX manages the snapshot, replication, and cloning technologies of existing storage and virtual infrastructure in a customer environment. Adoption of ECX does not require a customer to purchase and manage additional hardware and enables customers to maximize their primary storage investment. One of Catalogic’s largest ECX customers manages snapshot SLAs and self-service recovery for over 15,000 virtual machines through its central platform. Other customers use ECX to clone application servers with hundreds of SQL Databases, multi-TB Oracle RACs and large SAP HANA deployments.

HPE Nimble Storage is a leader in the primary storage market, combining predictive analytics and six-nines of availability to ensure customers’ apps are always on and always fast. With Catalogic ECX, copies of those applications can be instantly protected and cloned with full application awareness. Catalogic uses a simple storage array based licensing model which provides the use of an unlimited number of applications, CPU cores or storage capacity.

“HPE Nimble Storage has a decade-long history of simplifying and modernizing storage to help customers accelerate their digital transformation,” said Omer Asad, VP and GM of HPE Nimble Storage. “With Catalogic Software, HPE Nimble Storage customers are further equipped to protect and leverage their data. This enables our customers to derive insights and take actionable steps toward business transformation based on the information their data provides.”

“HPE Nimble Storage, known for its simplicity and reliability, is a leading platform used to power business critical applications. Catalogic ECX will extend this simplicity to the full application stack providing app-aware storage snapshots, replication, and instant cloning of VMs and Databases,” said Sathya Sankaran, COO of Catalogic Software. “We are pleased to be working with HPE Nimble Storage in the ongoing endeavor to advance the power of Flash to copy data and maximize our customers’ investments in their primary storage.”

This update for Catalogic ECX will be generally available on July 31, 2020 and will support the full line of HPE Nimble Storage all flash systems: AF20, AF20Q, AF40, AF60, and AF80 and HPE Nimble Storage hybrid arrays systems: HF20, HF20C, HF20H, HF40, HF40C, HF60, and HF60C.
