Zerto, an industry leader for IT resilience, is giving HPE Discover 2018 attendees the first look at Zerto 7 IT Resilience Platform this week. The preview will show the GUI of its flagship software product - to be released in 2019 - and how it will integrate with HPE storage solutions as part of the HPE Complete Zerto Solution as well as growing plans for future product integration. The ongoing partnership provides customers with the ability to converge all backup for short- and long-term use cases into one platform, available directly from HPE and its resellers.

Since the partnership began, HPE and Zerto have continued to deepen their relationship through co-development, co-selling and co-marketing initiatives. HPE Complete's engineering team is continuously working on validating integrations of its products with Zerto and has so far done so for ProLiant, 3PAR, Nimble, MSA and Simplivity. In addition, a number of HPE sales and management teams across the globe have completed Zerto training which is enabling the teams to thrive in three core areas: competitive replacement, multi-cloud and hybrid IT, and DR/BC.

"The Zerto 7 IT Resilience Platform, combined with the power of HPE server and storage products, creates a solution built to handle the demands of modern data centers. Our collaboration continues to help customers accelerate IT transformation by eliminating the risk and complexity of modernization and cloud adoption," said Peter Kerr, VP of global alliances. "We've been thrilled with the success we've experienced throughout our partner ecosystem and by exhibiting at events like HPE Discover we are able to showcase our collaboration with key players like HPE."

HPE's resell of Zerto's platform has gained momentum in a number of markets including financial, healthcare, and the public sector, which has resulted in a number of wins in 2018. Zerto and HPE are now able to reinvest this success in other mutually beneficial activities, such as the sponsorship of mutual events including the IT Resilience Roadshow and ZertoCON as well as HPE Discover in Las Vegas and Madrid.

HPE Discover is an opportunity for Zerto to preview how its IT Resilience Platform, when paired with HPE technology, can protect data from seven seconds to seven years by replacing incremental legacy backup technology with its ‘elastic journal'. Attendees will also see how Zerto provides joint customers with the ability to achieve aggressive recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs) through its journaling and continuous replication technology, as well as how it can replicate virtual environments across a variety of HPE servers and storage solutions.

In addition to the Zerto demos on show at booth 120, organizations can test their resilience maturity level using a new benchmarking tool developed from research gathered by Zerto and IDC. For those wishing to learn more about the new era of backup, Senior Vice President of Product, Rob Strechay, will be presenting a session titled ‘Goodbye Periodic Backup. Hello Zerto 7,' where he will discuss how Zerto is helping customers accelerating and simplifying IT transformation by converging backup, disaster recovery and cloud mobility into one platform.
