Scale Computing Scales Up with Ingram Deal

Scale Computing, a storage solutions provider for small-to-medium businesses, is now available to the growing base of U.S. resellers.  Today Scale Computing announced a partnership with Ingram Micro, VARs and other solution providers, and clients can now purchase Scale Computing’s storage products via Ingram.

Scale Computing is appealing to its pitch of new customers with a promo discount.  Here are some features it’s offering:

Reseller Spiff for Q4:
Sell Scale clusters of any model** to three (3) new customers in a
single quarter, the sales rep(s) who sold the Scale products will
receive $500 per new customer.
If your company sells Scale clusters of any model** to six (6) new
customers in a single quarter, the sales rep(s) who sold the Scale
products will receive $1,000 per new customer.

Scale Computing aims for both domestic and international expansion, and has in fact penetrated through the Japanese and European markets.  It’s a move others have been making to expand sales initiatives worldwide, including Hitachi’s recent team-ups with the likes of SAP.   Scale Computing first launched in the United States in 2007 and its expanding storage market is steered by a shift to virtualization and several legislation moves, such as HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley. Scale is a fusion of affordability, flexibility and robust storage with a low total cost of ownership.

The latest from Scale Computing is its N05 StorageNode, which offers 1.5 TB of storage capacity, and features its Intelligent Clustered Storage (TM) (ICS) technology. Tagging a price of $7500, it truly lives up to being the storage need for small-to-medium business  (SMBs). Customers can use SAN and NAS in the same cluster at the same time while controlling it with a simple web-based user interface. It features advanced mutipathing, replication and scalability with several the same enterprise-class features such the S and Performance lines (R Series) of products.

In other news, Compellent expanded its storage computing solutions this week as well. Like Scale Computing, Compellent also targets mid-sized enterprises.
