everStor Expands Reseller Program to Include Resellers and Integrators of Linux-Based Storage Solutions

ANAHEIM, CA - October 9, 2001 -- everStor, Inc. (www.everstor.com), a developer of enterprise-class storage-management software solutions, has announced an expanded reseller program that now includes resellers and integrators of Linux-based storage solutions -- and compliments everStor's existing Sun Solaris reseller program. The expanded program includes Replicator, which centralizes data replication and archiving; jb driver, an intelligent robotics driver for controlling tape libraries and optical jukeboxes; and Hiarc HSM, which transparently manages data, migrates it to secondary media, and provides virtually limitless storage capacity. The program offers resellers and integrators an aggressive pricing structure with various discount options, and extensive sales and product support. everStor's sales team will help generate leads and close accounts; and its support team will provide priority assistance. In addition, everStor will provide sales presentations. Program participants can also access a "Partners Only" area at everStor's Web site that includes promotions, marketing tools, product information and up-to-date pricing.

"everStor is committed to building and providing profitable solutions for resellers and integrators of Solaris and Linux server products," said Jamie Broadbent, director of sales for everStor. "Our products allow resellers and integrators to provide very effective protection for their customers that require high-availability data. For example, our Replicator is a perfect fit for a RAID Server for implementation into environments that have network bandwidth limitations. A RAID Server implemented with Replicator tremendously reduces network bandwidth by replicating data from servers and/or workstations to the RAID Server. This action, in effect, provides a complete backup. However, if a more traditional disk-to-tape backup is required, Replicator can be programmed to store data in a centralized location. From this location, traditional tape-backup tasks can be performed on the same computer that hosts Replicator. On Sun Solaris networks, Replicator can store data that requires quick access on the RAID Server in one location -- and migrate data that does not require quick access to tape or other media, with our HIARC HSM (Hierarchical Storage Management) software."
