Pivot3 Hyperconverged Solutions Win Top Tech Innovation Honors

Pivot3, the technology leader of hyperconverged infrastructure solutions,today announced that it has received three innovation awards from leading industry publications for its hyperconverged platforms.

The Pivot3 Edge Protect solution has been selected as a Top 30 Technology Innovation award winner by the editorial team at Security Sales & Integration.

ASTOR Platinum AwardThe converged server and storage solution was selected based on its ability to allow systems integrators to deliver the benefits of hyperconverged infrastructure to small- to medium-sized enterprises and distributed environments.

Pivot3’s Virtual Security Server (VSS) achieved the Platinum Award as Best Mobile Technology Software Product in the 2016 Homeland Security Awards, presented by American Security Today.

Edge Protect was also awarded a Gold-Level Award as Best Video Data Storage Solution in the same program, which honors technologies that help government entities reduce risk and ensure operational efficiencies.

Edge Protect provides high-performance storage and server infrastructure for up to 200 video surveillance cameras, at a price point competitive with direct attached storage (DAS) typically deployed in mid-sized NVR applications.

(Today’s advanced, high-def IP video surveillance systems are required to support an increasing number of applications & produce massive amounts of sensitive data. Capturing, protecting & accessing that data is a very challenging task for traditional surveillance technology, adding significant costs and pressures to your IT infrastructure.
