StorMagic Joins Intel ESAA

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- StorMagic, a fast-growing developer of iSCSI SAN management software, today announced that it has joined the Intel Enabled Server Acceleration Alliance (Intel® ESAA). As a member of the Intel ESAA program, StorMagic is certifying its iSCSI SAN solutions for use in Intel-based environments. This new membership will allow the creation of a “recipe” that joint channel partners can use to build leading-edge iSCSI SANs based on StorMagic iSCSI software and Intel hardware.

Intel ESAA is a collaborative program that streamlines technical certification and validation of reliable, high-quality server solutions to end-user customers. The certification allows Intel OEM and channel partners to quickly deliver pre-configured, Intel-based solutions to their customers. Solution builders are assured that Intel ESAA solutions consist of equipment and software from trusted technology providers, and end-user customers have confidence knowing they are purchasing a pre-tested and validated solution.

“We are welcoming StorMagic as a new Intel ESAA technology provider,” said Ned Thanhouser, director, Intel ESAA program. “We consider this a significant opportunity for our channel, as well as a great way to help small and medium organizations benefit from enterprise-class iSCSI features without the complexity and high cost. Intel has a long history of providing leading solutions to the SMB market, and StorMagic has focused exclusively on the small and medium segment of the market. With Intel as the platform for their iSCSI SAN solutions, I know they are in a great position to meet the needs of the SMB customers.”
