Zadara is a cloud computing company founded in 2011, with headquarters in Irvine, California. [2] The company develops computer software that it markets as storage-as-a-service, which can be used for cloud or on-premises servers, a model sometimes called private cloud. [3]
Zadara Storage was co-founded in 2011 by Nelson Nahum with $3 million in start-up funding. [4] In 2012, the company introduced cloud-based storage to Amazon.com's public cloud customers. The storage was designed to be used as persistent storage in conjunction with Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). [2] The company started by selling block data storage for storage area networks (SAN), and later added network attached storage (NAS) for cloud customers. [2]
In July 2012 the company completed a $7 million first funding round. [5] In August 2013, Toshiba's America Electronic Components (TAEC) division invested $3 million in the company. Reports indicated that as part of the investment, Toshiba's disk drives would be used in Zadara's storage products. [6] In 2014, Zadara was named a Cool Vendor by informational technology advisory firm Gartner. [7]
In September 2018, the company closed a $25 million series C funding round, led by Israel Growth Partners. [8]
In 2019, Asigra, a cloud-based data recovery software based in Toronto, Canada, partnered with Zadara "to release a purpose-built backup appliance with a subscription-based pricing model" that "aimed at service providers who would rather rent than buy." [9]
In February 2021, the company became the official sponsor of Alfa Romeo in Formula One. [10]
Yoram Novick was hired as Zadara's new CEO in April 2023, replacing co-founder Nelson Nahum. [11]
In February 2021, Zadara acquired developer Tel Aviv-based NeoKarm, the developer of an Amazon Web Services-compatible cloud system. [12] The Company acquired Brazilian tech firm ZVS in March 2023. [13]
Zadara Storage sells enterprise-class cloud compute & data storage services on a pay-as-you-go basis to companies worldwide through its Zadara Enterprise Data Cloud, for which it holds a patent. [14] [15] The operating software combines the company's proprietary software with third-party software including OpenStack, and allows the storage to be distributed to different users or tenants in a multi-tenant environment. [16] The platform allows users to create private clouds consisting of multiple high-availability cluster virtual storage arrays. [16] In addition to its block and file storage services, the company also sells Amazon S3/ OpenStack Swift-compliant object storage services. [14]
The Zadara Storage Backup to Amazon S3 (B2S3) product allows automatic backups from Zadara Storage Cloud to Amazon S3-compatible storage. [17] Zadara Container Services is technology that embeds Docker containers into Zadara's storage arrays. [18]
