Moonwalk Extends Support

MILTON, Australia -- Moonwalk Inc., the Australian developer of all-inclusive data management and protection software, today announced that its Moonwalk 6.0 software suite, which delivers a high-performance, stable and supported archive, backup and disaster recovery solution to heterogeneous networks, has become an approved application for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0.

As a Red Hat Ready Partner, Moonwalk has extended support for its software to allow Red Hat customers to take full advantage of its technology for storage management. Moonwalk transforms a Red Hat system into a powerful and flexible storage node providing Red Hat customers with instant access to online (cloud”) storage offerings, such as that provided by Amazon S3, which allows customers to take advantage of huge cost efficiencies that Internet Storage affords via file system interconnectivity, freeing up expensive primary storage without the need to purchase additional hardware.

“We’ve provided Linux-enabled storage and archiving for some time now and are pleased to add Red Hat flavoring to our roster of supported infrastructures,” said Peter Harvey, CEO of Moonwalk. “As strong believers in providing heterogeneous solutions that deliver archive, backup and disaster recover in vendor-neutral environments, it is important that we continue to provide access to information throughout the enterprise regardless of the operating system supporting it.”
