Riverbed Technology is expanding the total addressable market for its Whitewater family of cloud storage accelerator and backup products with the addition of EMC NetWorker, Quest vRanger, and CA ARCserve Backup support. The company says that this gives it access to more than 75 percent of the backup market. In addition, it has signed on the Nirvanix Storage Delivery Network (SDN) to the list of major cloud storage service providers that includes EMC Atmos and Amazon’s Simple Storage System (S3). According to Nirvanix, the combination will mean customers needn’t be concerned about the performance, complexity, manageability or costs associated with off-site tape storage.
