Nirvanix Adds Huge Switch SuperNAP Data Center to Cloud Storage Network

Nirvanix, Inc. added the SuperNAP data center from Switch as the tenth node in its global Cloud Storage Network.



The Switch SuperNAP, located in Las Vegas, NE, is the world's largest and most powerful data center and technology ecosystem, providing energy efficient, secure, and highly-reliable facilities for mission-critical business applications.

Nirvanix's enterprise customers, including some of the world's largest cloud storage deployments, are already using the SuperNAP data center to upload and replicate data from other nodes for protection and DR as well as to enable access and collaboration from anywhere on the globe.

Nirvanix's other cloud storage nodes are located in California, Texas, New Jersey, Hawaii, Germany, Switzerland, and Japan.

"Enterprises are increasingly adopting the cloud model not only to reduce costs but also to enable new and more effective ways of doing business," said Rob Roy, Switch founder and CEO. "Nirvanix is at the forefront of this movement when it comes to cloud storage, while Switch SuperNAP provides a state-of-the-art data center with unparalleled power and energy efficiency and a 100% uptime design. Together we deliver the extreme levels of security, reliability and redundancy that Nirvanix's enterprise-class customers expect."

Nirvanix offers public, hybrid, and private fully-managed clouds storage services, all with usage-based pricing. Nirvanix object-based cloud storage complemented by Switch SuperNAP provides enterprise customers across industries with geo-diverse data backup, DR and multi-site collaboration.

"Our enterprise customer list continues to grow at a rapid rate along with the data capacity they're storing in the Nirvanix cloud. Many of them are reaching multiple petabytes of valuable and irreplaceable data that must be stored, protected and accessed across the globe," said Scott Genereux, president and CEO of Nirvanix. "With the addition of the Switch SuperNAP data center to our global network, we can further offer our customers geographically diverse and cost-effective storage protection and content distribution—all with proven enterprise-class SLAs."

The Nirvanix Cloud File System enables billions of objects to be presented as one large global namespace, accessible from any location, while built-in data consistency software ensures that once a change is made to a file stored in the cloud, it's reflected across the entire cloud instantaneously. Combined with military-grade, multi-level security at the user, data storage and physical data center levels, Nirvanix Cloud Storage services enable secure access, content management, and collaborative workflows.
