WekaIO,
the innovation leader in high-performance, scalable file storage for
data-intensive applications, announced today that it was named Momentum
Technology Partner of the Year during the annual Hewlett Packard
Enterprise (HPE) Partner of the Year Awards at its annual HPE Global
Partner Summit in Las Vegas. The winning technology partners were
recognized from across HPE for outstanding performance, collaboration
and accomplishments that raise the standard for business excellence and
customer satisfaction.

WekaFS, the world’s fastest file system, is widely adopted by customers
with I/O intensive and extreme technical computing workloads inclusive
of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, high velocity
analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC). WekaIO and HPE work
together to validate that our joint hardware and software engineered
solutions have been tested to the highest standards from both companies.
The engineered solutions are built on pre-defined configurations from
the HPE’s premium Apollo and ProLiant server product lines, combined
with WekaIO Software creating an appliance-like experience.

“It’s an honor to award partners who have excelled in developing their
partnerships with HPE and grown mutual business opportunities with
collaborative solutions for our joint customers,” said Paul Hunter,
senior vice president of worldwide partner sales, HPE. “HPE is committed
to innovating new solutions and enabling mutual growth together with our
partners and our awards recognize the partnerships, collaborations and
successes of our top performing partners.”

WekaIO is currently a silver partner in the HPE
Technology Partner Program and works closely with the HPE Apollo
Server team, most recently having developed the HPE
AI Data Node solution. The company recently raised $31.7
million in Series C funding, with a strategic capital investment
from HPE’s venture capital arm, Pathfinder.

“We are honored to have received this recognition from HPE—it’s the
validation of our strategic partnership,” said Liran Zvibel, CEO and
co-founder, WekaIO. “We’re a 100% partner-centric organization and
offering the WekaIO software on industry-leading servers from HPE
