COMPELLENT LAUNCHES STORAGE CENTER

Compellent Technologies, a provider of modular, affordable storage solutions distributed exclusively through a select national network of business partners, today announced the launch of Storage Center -- an integrated, modular storage area network that automates the allocation, utilization, progression and recovery of data through Compellent's Dynamic Block Architecture.

Compellent's customers and business partners joined together on Feb. 25, 2004 at the Minnesota History Center to officially launch Storage Center and praise the benefits of a storage solution that is already proven and deployed by dozens of customers.

Compellent's modular offering, Storage Center, builds on its Dynamic Block Architecture to deliver a scalable, open-systems hardware platform allowing businesses to mix and match any number of drives, controllers and enclosures; an integrated foundation of core storage capabilities providing functionality previously available only in high-end systems; a powerful suite of software applications optimizing utilization, automating replication and speeding data recovery; and a single, intuitive, centralized management interface streamlining all storage administration.
