Now a part of the DDN family, both Nexenta by DDN and Tintri by DDN have come together to offer customers a unified solution to simplify their storage deployments and expand their usecases.

With Nexenta by DDN software-defined storage, Tintri customers can now benefit from full-featured block (iSCSI) and file functionality (NFS & SMB) with a mature homegrown SMB stack for Windows and Mac clients, hardened over more than thousand enterprise customers. Because the joint solution is optimized specifically for Tintri, NexentaStor VSA for Tintri is deployed via a specific OVF on VMware ESXi hosts and the Tintri datastore. Made to maximize dedup and data reduction for Tintri, NexentaStor VSA is managed via NexentaFusion or a VMware vCenter plugin (Flex or HTML5).
