We’re proud to announce that Red Hat Storage Software Appliance has been named a finalist for Storage Software Product of the Year.

As a software-only appliance, Red Hat Storage Software Appliance allows enterprise organizations to treat physical storage as a virtualized, standardized and scale-on-demand pool. It provides the elasticity, performance and quality required for successful open source enterprise environments across physical and cloud deployments.

Recognizing the achievements of end-users, channel partners and vendors, each DCS nomination is first validated by a judging panel of respected editors and analysts. The voting is then open to the public for consideration. To cast your vote, please visit http://dcsawards.com/voting. Voting will conclude May 7 and the winner of the 2012 Datacentre Storage Software Product of the Year category will be announced May 23 in London.
