Hi George, we are a start up developing our own software and specializing in data storage and protection systems. We have designed and developed a solution helping companies to anticipate the upcoming and rapid growth of digital data, NODEUM.
It is an intelligent storage and management system for massive data. Moreover, NODEUM is a scalable, hybrid storage and active archival system that offers optimal, secure and long-term management of data allowing you to, for instance, combine high capacity tape units, disks, or SSD via native virtualization of the file system.

I don’t find hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) anywhere in storage Switzerland. How do you think about this segment? Isn’t it a trend which will change storage?
We are a start-up in storage. Our main focus is hyper-converged infrastructure. Would be happy to discuss with you about this segment.
