SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwire - July 1, 2010) - Data Robotics, Inc., the company that is changing the way the world stores and protects digital content, today announced that it will be sponsoring the upcoming series of regional VMware User Group shows. VMware User Groups, also known as VMUGs, are designed to encourage and support communities of VMware users who want to hold regular meetings in their local area. The purpose of these gatherings is to provide a forum in which VMware users can share best practices and expertise and exchange ideas and information. VMUGs also allow VMware, the global leader in virtual infrastructure software for industry-standard systems, to obtain feedback from the user community.
Data Robotics will be demonstrating how DroboElite, its eight drive bay dual-ethernet iSCSI SAN solution, fits seamlessly into small to medium sized business (SMB) virtualized server environments. DroboElite offers the best data storage experience for SMBs and departments looking to consolidate storage across multiple servers. As the most powerful and flexible Drobo platform engineered to date, DroboElite redefines storage economics by delivering advanced features and performance usually reserved for more costly solutions.
"We are excited to support VMware user communities because we have the unique opportunity to interface directly with VMware users and leverage their feedback to develop better products," said Brad Meyer, senior product marketing manager for business storage product line at Data Robotics. "We value our ongoing relationship with VMware and we are committed to providing superior solutions for VMware users."
As a Silver Sponsor of the regional VMUG shows, Data Robotics has already attended eight VMUG shows in the past six months throughout the United States. In the upcoming months, Data Robotics will be attending the following VMUG events:
July 27, 2010: Indianapolis, Indiana
October 27, 2010: Louisville, Kentucky
November (exact date to be determined): Portland, Oregon
November (exact date to be determined): Atlanta, Georgia
