Intransa enters into strategic relationship with HCL

BANGALORE -- Intransa Inc. recently entered into a global strategic relationship with HCL Peripherals, a unit of HCL Infosystems Ltd. Under this relationship, HCL Peripherals will provide system integration services for Intransa's IP-SAN solutions globally.

Intransa leads the IP-SAN market by delivering the industry's most comprehensive suite of IP-SAN solutions to meet the needs of small, mid-tier and enterprise-class customers. The Intransa suite of sophisticated IP-SAN products -- IP3000, IP5000, IP7500, enable customers to add storage capacity from two to over 60 terabytes, and allow them to consolidate e-mail applications, databases, back-up and restore applications and other mission-critical data management applications. HCL Technologies will initially implement Intransa's modular IP-SAN solution across four key locations for storage consolidation and centralised data management to bring down TCO on data storage infrastructure.

Udi Paret, vice president, global operations, Intransa, said: "We are extremely excited about the relationship with HCL group and intend to leverage it to expand the footprint for our IP-SAN solutions across different geographies, market verticals and customer segments."

We also found that the Intransa solution, based on TCP/IP technology, offered the lowest TCO."
