Pivot3® Showcases New Enterprise-Class Platform at ISC West

Pivot3®, Inc., the leading provider of unified storage and compute appliances, will unveil an enterprise-class Serverless Computing solution at ISC West, being held March 28-30, 2012 at the Sands Convention Center. At Booth #2093, conference attendees will receive a first glimpse at the Pivot3 vSTAC™ Watch Enterprise appliance that introduces management support for both shared storage and high-performance servers. With support for VMware vCenter™, the Watch Enterprise adds a performance and optimization tool that is widely deployed in mission-critical IT installations. Centralized control and visibility for both servers and storage simplifies management of large-scale applications in the government, transportation and gaming markets where the influence of IT is driving users and resellers towards common management toolkits.

"We've designed the vSTAC Watch Enterprise for the largest surveillance installations where users benefit most from a centralized management structure," said Lee Caswell, Founder and CSO, Pivot3. "Once again, we are pulling the best technologies from the IT market and re-packaging them in a form that meets the cost and manageability needs of the surveillance market. Wha we accomplished with scale-out storage, virtualization and flash is now being applied to enterprise-class management tools."

Caswell will moderate a panel discussion titled, "Security + IT: Selling New Technologies in Traditional IT Infrastructures." The session will feature panelists with real-world experience in large-scale surveillance installations. Wayne Hunken from Correctional Services of Canada, which has installed a comprehensive IP system with more than 7PB of video storage, will describe the configuration and management considerations of deploying petabytes of storage with virtual machines from an end user perspective. Robert Hile of Siemens (News - Alert) Industry Inc. will discuss the issues faced from an experienced systems integrator point of view, and Dave Barber from Geutebruck, will describe the unique requirements of video surveillance applications in enterprise-class environments. The session will be held on Wednesday, March 28, 2012, from 10:15 a.m. to 11:15 a.m.

Pivot3 Serverless Computing will be on display at the company's booth showcasing the company's certified video management software partners including Genetec, Milestone and OnSSI. Attendees can also view integrated demonstrations between Pivot3 and Genetec at booth #21061, and with Samsung (News - Alert) Techwin America at booth #14063.
