Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) acquired Excelero, a Tel Aviv-based provider of high-performance software-defined storage solutions.
The amount of the deal was not disclosed.
Founded in 2014 by Yaniv Romem, CEO, Excelero developed NVMesh, a software platform that manages and secures virtual arrays of NVMe flash drives as block storage available across public and private clouds. The software supports Kubernetes containers.
The company has been an NVIDIA partner since its early days, attracting the former Mellanox, now part of NVIDIA, as an investor. The companies collaborated on accelerating storage with RDMA, a key technology at the core of both InfiniBand and RoCE (Ethernet) networks.
Nvidia will continue to support Excelero’s customers while, looking ahead, Excelero’s technology will be integrated into Nvidia’s enterprise software stack.
Excelero’s flagship product NVMesh transforms NVMe drives into enterprise-grade protected storage that supports any local or distributed file system. Featuring data-center scalability, NVMesh provides logical volumes with data protection and continuous monitoring of the stored data for reliability. High-performance computing, artificial intelligence and database applications can enjoy ultra-low latency with fast data processing, high-performance throughput of terabytes per second and millions of IOs per second per compute node.
