NTI prominent at TBC 2019 – Data Integration with Cloud to play bigger role for DRNet® users!

The level of participation in HPE NonStop’s annual NonStop Technical Boot Camp (TBC) was encouraging to see and now that attendees have returned home, there is ample time to cover topics that were popular at the event. Clearly, it’s become increasingly noticeable that enterprises worldwide are embracing hybrid IT and that clouds are playing an important role in many of the decisions enterprises are making. Who wouldn’t want to become more productive at less cost? Who wouldn’t want to break the cycle of upfront investments for a more flexible, pay-as-you-go, model?

 The number of times presentations highlighting the benefits of IT embracing an Operational Expense (OpEx) model, versus the traditional Capital Expense (CapEx) options of the past, were hard to miss. The NonStop team is fully behind models that extend the “as-a-Service” option even as at this time these were baby-steps on a journey many NonStop users would be undertaking over the course of the coming decade.


This is where hybrid IT plays an important role as its implications for IT are not just destined for cloud take up, but include the presence of traditional IT as well. This is a journey and there will be many steps taken before clouds become ubiquitous to the point where every data center is in a cloud.

According to Tim Dunne, NTI Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales:

“Whenever the industry undergoes major transition there are opportunities and NTI recognizes that among the more important items the NonStop community needs to address is data integration.
“With our history steeped in data replication, the move to data integration represents a major step for NTI, but it delivers the level of capability and indeed reliability that NTI has been known for from the time it first introduced DRNet® to the NonStop community.” 

In today’s data-driven world, where NonStop provides support of mission critical applications, it’s increasingly important for NonStop customers and prospects to have access to as many options as are available when it comes to moving data from NonStop to targets such as clouds. NTI is providing leadership in this marketplace and elected to coexist with other solutions which is only further enhancing NTI’s reputation as a premier product provider for all things data related!

Data Integration with Clouds – private and public – in time will play a bigger role for DRNet® users! This is a key element in the strategy NTI has developed in support of an expanded DRNet® product portfolio that today is better known as PROVisioning: Excellence in Data. However, having a vision and a strategy is just a starting point.  What became very clear at TBC 2019 was that the DRNet® extended product family is finding its place in the real world where today there are many NonStop users already deploying DRNet® to meet the demands of data movement!

TBC 2019 proved to be very successful for NTI in terms of us being able to promote our products and this is just the beginning. Transforming to hybrid IT is under way and it is inclusive of data centers where there is a NonStop presence. This too was noted by NTI’s Dunne:

“As we talked with almost every other NonStop vendor of late it’s clear that HPE is doing extremely well selling the new NonStop X systems and it’s not all replacement business – there are new applications for NonStop being actively discussed by some of our NonStop customers and the more applications we see deployed on NonStop, whether on traditional NonStop X or on vNS in private clouds, the more we know even more data will be on the move!”

NTI: Bringing value of partnerships to NonStop customers.

A popular Australian industry commentator, Kim Brebach the Content Chief & Business Strategist at Tech Torque Systems, recently posted to LinkedIn an examination of our over-reliance on terms that could best be described, for the most part, as being nothing more than a string of clichés. To drive home the point, Brebach pulled together the following: “I’m no visionary, evangelist, or thought leader either. A man has got to know his limitations. Visionary. Evangelist – I love amazing words that take your writing to the next level. And fancy ones like mesmerize, incentivize and monetize. Let's think strategically for a moment: if we put amazing words like these together with powerful clichés, we'll have a marriage made in heaven. We could own this space, right?” We may smile to ourselves as we read the above but coming as this does after we have all sat through many presentations on products and services that were given at this year’s All-Digital Experience, there were numer...

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 th...
