Emerging Vendors 2012: Storage

GreenBytes

Ashaway, R.I.

CEO: Robert Petrocelli

SSD array developer GreenBytes in May closed a $12 million B round of funding aimed at helping continue development of its all-SSD and hybrid SSD-hard drive storage solutions. GreenBytes in 2010 came to market with its first array, a hybrid appliance called the HA-3000, which features both SSDs and spinning hard drives with a single controller. It targets the backup market by providing high-speed data deduplication. The company more recently introduced its Solidarity, an all-SSD array with dual controllers targeting the primary storage array market for SMB customers.
