"Our inclusion on this year’s CRN Data Center 50 list is a testament to our commitment to provide the most innovative and reliable solutions our partners and customers need to navigate today's complex and evolving IT environments.”
Hyperconverged systems have completely reinvented the mid-market data center, making the traditional concepts of servers, storage, and virtualization obsolete. These new data center building blocks deliver seamless consolidation, providing simple, scalable, and available systems that allow organizations to grow cost-effectively while reducing operational overhead. Scale Computing Platform (SC//Platform) combines simplicity and scalability, offering a unified, easy-to-manage, and cost-effective solution that replaces complex infrastructure and ensures high availability for workloads. With the zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) in Scale Computing//Fleet Manager (SC//Fleet Manager), managing edge computing infrastructure becomes as simple as managing cloud resources. Administrators can pre-configure clusters prior to nodes arriving on site, reducing deployment time of edge infrastructure by up to 90%.
Each company on the Data Center 50 list is carefully selected by an expert panel of CRN editors from the industry’s leaders, in areas including servers, storage, power management, network infrastructure, colocation, and public cloud. Recognition is based upon the market influence and positive impact seen in these vendors’ ranges of data center products and services provided through IT solution providers.
