<p>Since its inception in 2011, CloudByte has successfully delivered storage solutions to service providers and enterprises deploying private clouds. CloudByte's flagship product ElastiStor's unique capabilities include per volume QoS management, enabling it to eliminate the noisy neighbor problem. A free 25TB edition of the ElastiStor virtual storage appliance is available at <a href="http://www.cloudbyte.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.cloudbyte.com</a>; all flash hardware solutions are also available as are other solutions from partners including Q5 and Wipro. &nbsp;</p>

<p>CloudByte recently released an early version of OpenEBS, an Apache Licensed 100% open source storage project addressing the needs of today's DevOps environments with native container integration and other capabilities. The OpenEBS project leverages some of the technology developed by CloudByte including the ability to control QoS from and for containerized storage controllers. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Evan said, "The next wave of storage disruption is upon us and over the months and years to come you'll see CloudByte and the OpenEBS project delivering a new combination of technology, business model, and community to improve the lives of DevOps architects and operators. I'm already enjoying working with the CloudByte team and the growing OpenEBS community."</p>

<p>"We are excited to have Evan join us as Chairman," said Uma Mukkara, Co-founder and CEO of CloudByte. "Storage requirements have changed with containers reaching mainstream. I am looking forward to working with Evan in building CloudByte and specifically in growing the OpenEBS community." &nbsp;</p>
