Bosch forms global partnership with NetApp

¡¤Strategic move anticipates rapid market growth
¡¤Global partnership aligns leaders in storage and video surveillance
¡¤Agreement links sales and support teams and research and development

Bosch Security Systems and NetApp (Network Appliance Inc. based in  Sunnyvale, CA/U.S.) have formed a global partnership.  Under terms of the signed agreement, Bosch will sell and support co-branded NetApp storage devices as part of its CCTV portfolio.  Bosch Security Systems is a worldwide acting company for security systems, NetApp is a creator of innovative storage and data management solutions.  The agreement is a strategic move anticipating continued rapid development of the IP video surveillance market.
¡°The market is continuing to mature in its understanding of IP video system architectures, resulting in a substantial up tick in the adoption of Bosch¡¯s approach for recording video -- streaming video direct to RAID array or storage area network and eliminating network video recorders,¡± said Johan Jubbega, vice president of Global Video Systems and Products, Bosch Security Systems, Inc.
  ¡°The partnership with NetApp will increase the options we offer our customers by adding proven technology from a leading storage solution provider.  These products will appeal to system integrators and our newest generation of customers --
IT-savvy end users¡±.
Bosch pioneered the development of IP cameras and encoders that stream directly to RAID array or Storage Area Network (SAN).
 This award-winning, efficient approach to video recording is made possible with the use of an IP-based storage standard -- Internet Small Computer System Interface
(iSCSI).  With the partnership agreement, Bosch is growing its portfolio of storage devices that use the iSCSI protocol, as the company will resell three co-branded NetApp appliances.
The products will include the FAS2000 Series, scaleable cost-effective devices with a storage density up to 65 terabytes, and the S550, a storage appliance for small and
medium applications that was recently recognized by Windows IT Pro magazine as a 2007 Editors¡¯ Best Award winner.
¡°With the desire growing among customers for IP video surveillance solutions, the timing is right to partner with Bosch,¡± said Andreas Konig, general manager and senior vice president EMEA for NetApp.
 
¡°By leveraging NetApp solutions that utilize the iSCSI protocol combined with Bosch security products, customers are provided with a proven and effective answer to their video surveillance needs.¡±
Under terms of the partnership, NetApp will assist Bosch associates with pre-sales support for the co-branded products.
 The company will also deliver training and certification to Bosch technical support groups.  Bosch will provide customers with post-sale technical support for the storage devices. This level of integration will provide a streamlined experience for customers during and after the sale of the co-branded products.  To ensure continued compatibility of products, Bosch will also gain ongoing insight into NetApp¡¯s technology roadmap.  Early access to NetApp¡¯s devices will assist Bosch in tuning its video surveillance products to take advantage of new features and functionality in NetApp¡¯s futurestorage offerings.
