GreenBytes partners with ClearCube to enhance features, performance and ROI of SmartVDI platform

PROVIDENCE, USA: GreenBytes Inc., a developer of full-featured virtual desktop storage optimization solutions, announced a strategic partnership with ClearCube Technology, a leader in virtual desktop systems including private cloud solutions, zero clients, blade PCs and high-performance workstations.

GreenBytes' patented zero latency inline deduplication technology, available exclusively in the company's vIO virtual storage appliance, has been integrated into ClearCube's Smart Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (SmartVDI) series 100 host platform to provide accelerated performance and additional enterprise-class features for ClearCube's SmartVDI platform.

"We are excited to be in partnership with GreenBytes. The storage capabilities that the GreenBytes solution provides are leading edge; cutting through all the hype and white-noise in the VDI storage marketplace with breakthrough performance," said Jim Zakzeski, VP, Sales and Marketing, ClearCube Technology. "The practical benefits from GreenBytes' patented deduplication efficiency are profound and significantly impact the economics of the storage component of VDI deployments to the tune of 15:1 cost savings, making persistent full clones very attractive."

ClearCube's SmartVDI Series 100 host platform is designed to smoothly transition physical personal computer desktops, with all the configurations and personalization created, onto a virtualized, high availability desktop platform in the most cost-effective manner. Whether deploying linked or full clones, persistent or non-persistent desktops, ClearCube has configuration options within the SmartVDI family to optimize VDI compute/storage based on particular needs.

With SmartVDI's simplified installation and end-to-end control of the VDI environment, virtualized desktops can be managed with the same tools that are already familiar for managing physical desktops. The SmartVDI platform has been purpose-built to deliver a superior virtual desktop user experience that is easy to support, scales from 100s to 1000s of virtual desktops, and offers low cost-per-seat configurations.

"ClearCube's SmartVDI platform offers customers outstanding value and performance as more and more companies look to successfully deploy and manage full persistent virtual desktops," said Dan Beauregard, senior director, Strategic Alliances, GreenBytes. "GreenBytes' vIO virtual storage solution features our patented zero latency inline deduplication technology and was architected to enable OEMs like ClearCube to deliver cost effective, cloud-scale desktop virtualization. We believe that the pairing of ClearCube's emerging SmartVDI platform with GreenBytes' enterprise-class VDI software will enable ClearCube to accelerate and expand their footprint in the virtual desktop marketplace."
