DRNet®/Unified for HPE Customers; On-Prem and “as a service,” NTI delivers!

HPE Discover 2021 may already be a distant memory for some but the messages that were coming out of the event will be resonating with the industry for quite some time. Looking beyond the “age of insight” and even HPE becoming “a world leading edge to cloud platform as a service company,” it is now very much a case of HPE bringing the cloud experience to the enterprise.   Not surprisingly, the byline for this story is the bigger message that the enterprise data center will be with us for a long time. This isn’t to say that cloud service providers will not be making their presence felt in these same data centers, one way or the other, but rather recent events have further reinforced the value proposition of being your own IT master.   With the cloud experience coming to a data center near you, enterprises can benefit from the best of both worlds. The security and robustness from on-prem computing together with all the flexibility that comes with cloud experiences. For the NonStop

DRNet®/Unified for HPE; aligned with HPE messaging for 2021

  Sometimes you can be fortuitous in your planning and even lucky with your messaging. Then again, you might be able to put it down to the interactions between team members that drive conversations to where ideas flourish and images take shape in your mind. For much of 2021 the NTI team has been engaged in such processes and it has led to a reimagining of how best to present the DR Net ® product suite while complementing earlier messaging with a number of modern touches.   Where our conversations led us was to an appreciation of safety, of reduced risks and of having confidence in your partner! Whether it was the Americas’ Cup yacht races in New Zealand or simply a trip to the coast to watch other sailboats, the idea of reduced risk brought to the fore the images of a safe haven and a bay with a lighthouse. For many vendors, even those we may be familiar with and have served the NonStop community well for a long time, images of lighthouses have been a good way to project safety an

For the NonStop community, when choosing a unified solution for data replication the place to be is in a safe haven …

As anyone who has ventured to sea knows all too well, it is wise to spend times looking over your charts to view those harbors that offer a safe haven should anything unexpected eventuate. Pilots too know where they can land safely should they experience difficulties and are ever watchful for airfields suitable for emergency landings, whether it’s violent weather-related turbulence or much worse, perhaps an engine that fails. Avoiding disaster is never far from the minds of those who venture into the unknown. Much closer to home perhaps, in these times through which we have all lived, many of us have discovered our safe haven, whether it’s an outside corner table at a café or simply a cozy room at home, relief has been possible far removed, as it were, from all that is happening outside of our immediate surroundings. In any endeavor there is always the need to minimize risk and for the NonStop community as they contemplate replacing legacy products with more modern offerings, there is

NTI helps NonStop users leverage the product “cap.”

  The boys of summer have taken to the fields and once again, are swinging for the fences. Whether your sport happens to be baseball, gridiron, football or even cricket, there has been many attempts at ensuring parity between the teams. Setting limits on budgets and even personnel, have been one somewhat successful attempt to ensure fairness, but even so, the need to work with less to achieve even more continues to make headlines.   There is no question that the benefits that come with focusing on key contributors continue to drive the fortunes of the best clubs. After all, whether it is a sports team or an enterprises IT organization there are only so many ways you can dissect a budget!   What is perhaps less discussed is the product caps we leverage for the benefit of our enterprise. An enterprise could purchase every hardware and software product on the market only to find connecting the pieces beyond its capabilities. Leveraging key solutions to the benefit of the enterpris

NTI: Pioneers do it first!

  For anyone living west of the mighty Mississippi River, signs from pioneering times exist almost everywhere you turn. The wagon ruts left behind by the wheels of many wagon trains that headed to California and Oregon are still visible on grassy fields. Being first to lay claim to the richness of those faraway lands was the prize these pioneers sought with every journey they took. You don’t have to live in the US to view such markers, as early settlers in Australia likewise turned to pioneers to break out from coastal living and cross the great divide. The Zig Zag railway line, pictured above, that followed those early pioneering explorers to the west of Sydney is a clear reminder of the difficulties that arise as natural barriers are overcome. So named Zig Zag as the railway line crisscrossed the mountainside when passing over the country’s Blue Mountains.  Rivers, mountains and even the oceans that surround us have all proved challenging at some point and when it comes to our IT

NTI continues to grow ecosystem of partners to better serve NonStop community

  It would be hard to miss the growth in the ecosystem of partners NTI has attracted. The NonStop community is familiar with the DR Net ® product suite but this hasn’t stopped NTI reaching out to product, service and consulting companies to ensure NTI’s coverage worldwide. The presence of these partners in an ecosystem does two things for the company; it reassures prospects that there have been others before them, so risks are greatly reduced and it reinforces the NonStop community at large that the company and its products provide a compelling reason for others to consider DR Net ® in the future.   A lot has changed within the NonStop community. HPE has invested in the NonStop product line and there are numerous options available to the community. NonStop continues to be sold along traditional lines as a converged system but it is also available as a virtual system on customer-supplied x86 servers. These options have become well known, but perhaps even more interesting is the move
