Diamanti and Lenovo Make Kubernetes Easy for Enterprise

Today Lenovo announced the Diamanti SR630, a high-performance solution that delivers a turnkey Kubernetes platform ready for hybrid cloud. The full-stack solution is part of Lenovo’s OEM ON DEMAND program and fills a gap for companies who want the benefits of containers and Kubernetes but lack the staff and skills to manage cloud native containerized applications.  

This announcement further highlights our own transition to software focus, marked by the general availability of Diamanti Spektra 3.0 announced earlier this week. Spektra propels enterprises to break from legacy architectures and rapidly adopt and expand Kubernetes on-premises and in the cloud, with security, high availability, and resilience built-in.

By partnering with x86 server producers like Lenovo we’re able to focus on software and I/O acceleration initiatives while still delivering full-stack solutions that solve the tough enterprise challenges around Kubernetes adoption. 

The Diamanti SR630 integrates Diamanti’s patented I/O acceleration technology and market-leading Spektra software with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, coupled with Lenovo’s deep engineering, manufacturing and supply chain expertise to integrate and deliver these solutions. The combined solution enables fast Kubernetes deployments and allows organizations to run containerized applications across hybrid cloud environments.
