SM Data and FalconStor sign strategic Distribution Agreement to bring Storage Over IP availability to the Spanish market

Paris, Barcelona, 4th September 2001 – SM Data the Spanish distributor specialized in storage solutions and US-based FalconStor, Inc., a network storage infrastructure software company, announced today a joint strategic distribution agreement to provide resellers with the ability to integrate FalconStor’s IPStor Software solutions in their product offerings.

Founded in 1989, SM DATA is a value added distributor specialised in high end and high performance storage networking solutions in heterogeneous environments, offering all the necessary hardware and software components to develop a SAN (Storage Area Network). SM DATA is an active member of SNIA Europe and represents in Spain numerous manufacturers of advanced technology products of high quality, world-wide leaders.


"With IPStor, FalconStor is redefining storage networking," says SM Data Managing Director Jordi Sabiol. "Typically, solution providers have focused on either the hardware-based IP connectivity solutions or the software-based storage services solutions. IPStor has created a new ‘space’ that offers both, and as a software-only solution that is hardware independent. This allows companies to leverage existing IT infrastructures and benefit from added functionalities such as mirroring, replication, snapshot, and zero-impact backup and restore."

According to FalconStor General manager EMEA Operations, Gerry Briggs, "this agreement allows us to make a major entry into the Spanish market by partnering with a leading expert for storage systems. SM Data will be trained and certified in all facets of the IPStor software technology. While it represents a win-win relationship for both companies, it means even more to an industry that has an ever-growing demand for both storage management and storage networking services. We see this agreement as a means for the channel to embrace solutions that will add value and complement our growth in Europe and Spain"
