Calxeda is pleased to have the support of industry leaders in the OS, Cloud Management, Storage, and Parallel Data/Analytics market segments. As part of Calxeda’s Trailblazer Initiative, these companies will lead the charge of bringing the unprecedented energy-saving benefits of ARM-based servers to the data center.

“We are proud that Ubuntu has been chosen as the operating system to launch the Calxeda Trailblazer Initiative. We have been working with Calxeda and have been developing Ubuntu Server to run on ARM servers for some time now. This program further aligns our organizations and will help companies and projects looking to build the hyper-efficient data centers of tomorrow.”

- Jane Silber, CEO, Canonical

“The ideal architecture for building any cloud storage solution combines highly scalable object storage software, like Caringo CAStor with the compact, energy efficient servers enabled by Calxeda’s chips and reference designs. Organizations across all industries are quickly reaching the limits of what traditional data center infrastructure can do for them in the face of a tidal wave of unstructured data. This type of challenge requires a quantum leap in terms of power, cooling and density, which is why we are excited to be part of the Calxeda Trailblazer program. The high performance, massively scalable low power approach of a Caringo and Calxeda combined solution is ideal for storing big data at a fraction of the total cost of ownership of today’s offerings.”

- Paul Capentier, CTO, Caringo

“As a leading provider of NoSQL database technology, Couchbase delivers unmatched scalability and performance for our customers’ interactive web applications, while reducing data management cost and complexity. Calxeda’s focus on high-performance, low-power semiconductors is an excellent match for these distributed system environments, enabling even greater efficiency and cost savings. We are excited to participate in the Trailblazer Initiative and the potential benefit of our combined solutions for customers.”

- Steven Mih, Vice President of Business Development, Couchbase

“Our focus at Datastax is making it easy for our customers to leverage Apache Cassandra and Hadoop to create and deploy cloud enabled and data-centric applications. Calxeda’s chips support Cassandra’s mission as well: low latency access to big data spread across multiple servers. We are excited to work with Calxeda to deliver an extremely efficient and unified infrastructure platform.”

- Billy Bosworth, CEO, Datastax

“Calxeda is at the forefront of data center innovation, using state-of-the-art ARM processors for cost-effective scaling to extremely high levels. With Eucalyptus’ leading infrastructure-as-a-service platform, IT teams can implement powerful on-premise cloud computing using an organization’s information technology (IT) infrastructure. We look forward to exploring how we can work together through Calxeda’s Trailblazer initiative to further increase data center efficiencies that include Calxeda’s next generation technologies with Eucalyptus cloud services.”

- David Butler, VP, Eucalyptus Systems

“The trend towards low-power and hyper-efficient compute resources matches what we are seeing in the storage market. Organizations want to reduce costs associated with compute and storage infrastructure while maximizing performance and we are pleased to be participating in the Calxeda Trailblazer program.”

- AB Perisamy, founder and CTO, Gluster

“MapR has delivered a highly differentiated distribution for Hadoop which focuses on efficiency and price/performance. We are excited to partner with Calxeda, who shares that same vision of higher efficiency and lower cost.”

–Jack Norris, VP Marketing, MapR Technologies

“Opscode is proud to participate in Calxeda’s Trailblazer program alongside other visionary companies. Collectively, we realize that the future of computing infrastructure relies on maximizing power, agility and efficiency at every step, from bare metal through provisioning and application deployment.”

–Jesse Robins, CEO, Opscode

“Pervasive DataRush shares Calxeda’s focus on energy-efficient analytics and on enabling developers to build big data applications with high throughput. We’re pleased to join the Calxeda Trailblazer Initiative to help rapidly bring a developer-ready stack on next-generation ARMs to market.”
