Stratus Technologies, a global leader in simplified, protected, and autonomous Edge Computing, announced an agreement with NEC extending their partnership in bringing next generation fault-tolerant computing platforms to market.
This agreement follows decades of collaboration on the development of and delivery of the Stratus ftServer, a fully integrated continuously available computing platform, and the NEC Express5800 Enterprise Server for large-scale virtualization and database workloads.
As demands on digital operations continue to intensify, businesses will need more efficient and secure ways to consolidate software applications within single, fault tolerant platforms that run those applications continuously with no loss of data due to unplanned or planned downtime. Additionally, requirements will grow for application transparency, health monitoring, and simplified deployment, support, and maintenance, among other capabilities within enterprise, regional, and local data centers in industries such as financial services and telecommunications, as well as edge operations like Oil & Gas terminals, train stations, smart buildings, manufacturing floors, and retail stores.
Kazunori Sudo, Executive Vice President of NEC
Our long-standing relationship with Stratus has resulted in valuable fault tolerant servers that our customers and partners rely on to keep their businesses up and running. We expect Stratus’ next generation fault tolerant technology will create more reliable computing capabilities with greater levels of functionality, serviceability, and performance.
Dave Laurello, Chairman, President and CEO of Stratus
Stratus and NEC have a common history of success in helping customers simplify, protect, and automate their digitally transforming operations.
