PARSIPPANY, N.J.--(Business Wire)--
RELDATA, the leading supplier of a new generation of consolidated
and unified storage solutions, today announced that its iSCSI and NAS
storage solutions have been verified compatible with the Cybernetics
family of disk and virtual tape library (VTL) products. The
compatibility testing ensures complete interoperability for customers
looking to leverage their disk-based storage products into a single,
seamless virtual storage pool.

   "By verifying compatibility with leading disk vendors, like
Cybernetics, we are assuring customers that their existing disk
investment is protected as they deploy consolidated storage solutions
that deliver unified iSCSI SAN, NAS and WAN replication functions from
a single virtualized storage platform," said Oleg Neverovitch,
Director Technical Support, RELDATA. "By delivering open storage
solutions with no vendor lock in, customers with increasing storage
costs can maximize their return on investment in past and future
storage purchases."

   RELDATA works closely with industry-leading technology companies
to verify interoperability with partner products either in the test
labs of the technology partners and/or in the RELDATA test center. The
companies successfully tested Cybernetics SCSI-based disk and VTL
storage products with RELDATA's 9240 Unified Storage Gateway and
Unified Storage System.

   "This certification provides our customers with peace of mind in
knowing that they can continue to use their existing disk solutions
within a larger virtualized network without encountering performance
issues or other compatibility concerns that would otherwise preclude
them from leveraging their current hardware investment," said Melissa
Chamberlain of Cybernetics. "RELDATA's 'single pane of glass'
management, Adaptive Storage Wizards and RELbots all work well with
Cybernetics product to deliver an easy to manage, flexible storage
system."

   RELDATA certifies compatibility with products in categories such
as disk storage, virtual tape libraries (VTL), switches, iSCSI
software and hardware, backup software, tape libraries and server
virtualization software. Companies interested in becoming a member of
