Storage Made Easy Announces the "SME" Juju Charm

Storage Made Easy’s Enterprise File Fabric solution is now available through Canonical’s Juju
charm store.

London, United Kingdom, February 15, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Storage Made Easy (SME) today announced
the availability of the Storage Made Easy™ File Fabric™ charm through Canonical's Juju charm store.
The store provides access to a wide range of best practice solutions which can be deployed to public
clouds such as AWS, Google Cloud and Azure as well as private clouds such as MAAS, OpenStack and
VSphere. Now operations teams have ready access to the Storage Made Easy data store unification and
governance technology which can be deployed in minutes to the cloud of their choice.

Canonical's model-driven operations system Juju addresses the complexity of modern software by
providing reusable, abstracted operations across hybrid cloud and physical infrastructure. Integration
points and operations are encoded in “charms” by vendors and the community of experts familiar with an
app. These charms are leveraged by operations teams, configuration as code that evolves along with the
software itself.

The Storage Made Easy Enterprise File Fabric solution provides a governance hub for on-premises and
on-cloud data stores enabling common policies and restrictions to be set across the fabric of a company's
corporate data assets.

“Storage Made Easy's participation in the Charm Partner Program and the release of our own Juju charm
aligns with our mandate to make storage easier to use and secure whether on-premises, or in private or
public clouds. This is an important milestone in our partnership with Canonical offering solutions that
help customers deploy their applications quickly, securely and at scale,” said Steven Sweeting, Director
Product Management. “We're also pleased to support JAAS - Juju-as a Service for even faster
deployment.”

“We are delighted to welcome Storage Made Easy to the Juju ecosystem,” said Arturo Suarez, Program
Director at Canonical. “SME's Enterprise File Fabric adds a set of outstanding features to our catalogue of
storage solutions, doubling down on our commitment to offer our customers flexibility, security and the
economics to run their applications at scale across different platforms.”

The Storage Made Easy File Fabric™ solution enables IT to regain control of "cloud data sprawl" to
unify on-premises and on-cloud files into a single easily managed converged infrastructure with
policy-based controls for governance, audit and security.

The File Fabric provides a “blanket” enterprises wrap around all their data: on premises, within public
and public clouds, as well as on third-party software vendor clouds (SharePoint Online and Salesforce for
example).

Customers use the Storage Made Easy File Fabric product to unify corporate data to enable workgroup
collaboration with universal controls for security, encryption, audit, and data access. Companies will have
access to a greater understanding of where and how sensitive data is stored, transferred, and accessible
