This provides production-level ARTESCA VM support for vSphere users, with functionality equal to that on physical servers, along with additional deployment flexibility. VM support is valuable in this time of supply chain issues that are causing long lead times for physical storage server hardware, which can delay enterprise priorities.
Enterprise-grade storage has historically required hardware with integrated processing, memory and disk capacity. The company breaks through the needs for customised hardware with a 100% focus on software and an ability to leverage standard server platforms. Now, ARTESCA again breaks away from traditional storage requirements with the ability to support production-level workloads on flexible, commonly used VMware vSphere virtual infrastructures including support for VMware vSAN and live migration capabilities
In addition to providing customers with more flexibility in deployment options, this enables partners and resellers to more rapidly deliver solutions to customers by sidestepping supply chain disruptions to provide faster time to revenue.

Launched in 2021, ARTESCA is redefining object storage for the new cloud-native era. It provides both a small footprint at the edge and scalability for the data centre. Designed for fast access anywhere data lives, it combines lightweight, cloud-native object storage design with enterprise-grade capabilities.
Paul Speciale, CMO, said: “Ongoing supply chain disruptions hamper business goals and growth. We’re supporting ARTESCA software-based object storage on VMWare’s ubiquitous vSphere environment to offer a solution that bypasses current supply conditions by eliminating new hardware requirements. Companies can move forward with the data storage and management they need.”
