With quotes from some participating companies for this coming edition:
-
Jason Lohrey, CEO and Founder, Arcitecta
"Data is the foundation for advancements in AI, research, and high-performance computing. At Arcitecta, we ensure that data is always ready and accessible, enabling organizations to accelerate discovery rather than wrestle with data complexity. Equally important, robust metadata provides the context that gives data meaning; without it, the potential of AI models and the scientific insights they drive can fall short. The IT Press Tour provides an ideal venue to showcase how our Mediaflux platform unites data management, orchestration, access, and storage in a vendor-agnostic manner. This approach enables organizations to develop a sustainable strategy for retaining and utilizing their data indefinitely, and drive better model quality and faster breakthroughs in everything from cancer research to genomics and beyond.”
-
Jeffrey Altman, Founder and CEO, AuriStor
"AuriStor is excited to once again participate in The IT Press Tour. We are looking forward to the opportunity to share the on-going improvements in the AuriStor File System. The last year reinforced the benefits of building corporate data management upon a global namespace filesystem. Our end users have repeatedly observed the benefits of being able to live migrate their unstructured data between internal data centers and public clouds to meet the ever changing dynamics surrounding operational expenses and data sovereignty. In addition, AuriStorFS has proven to be a crucial tool when migrating software development workflows to containerized distribution and execution environments."
-
Oded Nagel, CEO, CTERA
“We are pleased to once again take part in the IT Press Tour, showcasing CTERA’s commitment to unlocking enterprise intelligence in today's hybrid cloud landscape. With AI adoption on the rise, our solutions provide the secure, unified data fabric essential for fostering innovation, driving operational efficiency, and ensuring compliance. We look forward to discussing how CTERA empowers enterprises to transform their unstructured data into actionable insights, connect distributed environments seamlessly, and pro-actively protect data everywhere it lives.”
-
Bill Andrews, President and CEO, ExaGrid
"ExaGrid solves all the problems that organizations face with their backup storage: how to improve backup and restore performance to keep users productive and data protected, how to be sure your backups are stored securely and ready to recover from cyber-attacks or environmental disasters, how to easily scale out as data grows, and how do all of this at a low cost up front and over time. ExaGrid has continued to expand into more regions worldwide, and now has customers in more than 80 countries. We are excited to share what new innovations we have recently released for our Tiered Backup Storage, as well as a look at what’s coming up next with the IT Press Tour who will share our story with audiences in so many regions."
-
Simon Taylor, Founder and CEO, HYCU
"The IT Press Tour continues to be one of the most invaluable opportunities for us to connect with a deeply informed group of industry media. Each edition, Philippe brings together the voices and perspectives that shape how innovation in IT is understood across the globe. What makes ITPT unique is not just the reach, but the depth of engagement, it's a chance to exchange ideas and showcase technology that is truly changing how organizations think about resilience, security, data protection, and simplicity. We are excited to be part of the 64th Edition in New York, our tenth, to share the latest advancements in HYCU R-Cloud, and to highlight why protecting and recovering data across SaaS, cloud, and on-premises environments has never been more critical."
