Datrium Releases DVX 4.0 Software, Converging Tier 1, Backup & CloudSUNNYVALE, Calif., April 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Datrium, the leading provider of Open Converged Infrastructure for hybrid cloud, announced the shipment of DVX 4.0 Software, the third major software release in less than a year. The new software release extends Datrium DVX Tier 1 capabilities with support for Oracle RAC, greater VM fault tolerance, and improved data and administrative security. DVX 4.0 also includes Cloud DVX, a SaaS-based VM backup and recovery service, a free one year trial cloud backup subscription, and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee. Datrium DVX converges Tier 1 hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) with scale-out backup and cloud disaster recovery (DR). DVX enables up to 10 times more VMs to run at lower latency than HCI, enables 10 times faster VM restores than scale-out backup products, and with Cloud DVX, offers backup to cloud with up to 10 times lower AWS fees than many cloud backup providers, all in the same simple converged system. Cloud Backup and Free Trial Subscription Datrium also announced that all new systems running DVX 4.0 or later now include a complimentary one-year subscription toCloud DVX. The free subscription includes up to one terabyte (TB) of AWS capacity, which can protect up to 6 TBs of effective data in the cloud after Datrium's cloud-based data reduction. This program will be available through September 30, 2018 and does not cover the AWS subscription fees. Extending Tier 1 Data Security and Resilience Peer Cache Mode is new with DVX 4.0 Software and provides VM fault tolerance. In the case of the failure of all host SSD drives or the host's RAID controller, all VMs on the affected host stay online. Peer Cache allows VMs on the affected host to use the SSDs on a neighboring host until the SSD or RAID controller failure can be addressed. DVX 4.0 Software brings FIPS 140-2 validated mode to Datrium Blanket Encryption. The data security software also debuts the ability for organizations to set two decryption passphrases. With a single decryption passphrase, if an administrator with sole knowledge of it forgets the passphrase or leaves the organization unexpectedly, recovery can be a challenge. By providing the ability to set two passphrases, the chances of losing access to data due to unavailability of the passphrase is minimized. DVX 4.0 Software also provides built-in auditing. HIPAA, PCI, SOX all have compliance controls which must be audited. With the new 4.0 Software, administrators can continuously log any actions taken across the system and view events within the DVX console. This new auditing capability will track user actions whether or not they have authenticated through vCenter, a standalone user interface, API or CLI. The auditing also monitors API actions, simplifying security analysis, change tracking, troubleshooting and auditing. Datrium DVX has been written and architected with an API-first approach. DVX 4.0 Software now provides a Python-based Software Development Kit (SDK) leveraging a RESTful API framework for customers to automate key functions of their DVX system such as virtual machine Get, Snapshot, Clone and Replication. "Security is not optional for processing electronic payments, and we take a layered approach," says Gilbert Martin, VPay Director of Infrastructure. "Datrium Blanket Encryption secures our data end-to- end with no performance degradation, so we can meet SLA's, performance and security expectations at the same time." Money Back Guarantee Availability Datrium Cloud DVX recovery service is available immediately, and requires DVX Software 4.0. U.S. list pricing for the service is $6,000 per 5 TB (up to 30TB effective) of S3 capacity per year. DVX 4.0 Blog: HCI & SAN Customers? Look! Open Convergence (OCI) Just Got Even Better About Datrium
