Kaminario Named a Leader in 2017 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Solid-State Arrays

NEEDHAM, Mass., July 18, 2017 -- Kaminario, a leading all-flash storage company, today announced it has been recognized as a leader in the July 2017 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Solid-State Arrays for its ability to execute and completeness of vision. Kaminario believes the move from a visionary in 2016 to a leader in 2017 highlights its continued growth and innovation.

“We have spent the last few years optimizing our technology and business model to serve the needs of cloud-scale application providers including both SaaS players and those enterprise organizations embracing modern data center strategies,” said Dani Golan, founder and CEO, Kaminario. “We feel being recognized as a leader by Gartner underscores our commitment to pushing the envelope on both innovation and creating a highly sustainable business model.”

Kaminario’s business continues to expand as more and more SaaS customers and channel partners adopt its all-flash storage array to run their on-demand applications – including healthtech, fintech, ecommerce and enterprise applications-as-a-service companies. The rapid adoption of its all-flash solution is primarily driven by growing demand in cloud-scale, database-driven applications as well as increasing interest in machine learning and artificial intelligence-based applications.

2017 has been filled with many successes for Kaminario. Earlier this year the company announced a $75 million round of funding, bringing its total amount raised to $218M. The company also announced its sixth generation K2 all-flash array powered by its VisionOS^TM software-defined architecture. The K2 is optimized for delivering consistently high performance under the most dynamic workloads at multi-petabyte scale. Customers are protected by Kaminario ForeSight^TM, the industry’s most comprehensive business assurance program.
