VMware Partner Program for Object Storage Extension


The VMware Partner Program™ for Object Storage Extension launched a new initiative which allows ISVs to integrate their solutions with VMware Cloud Director Object Storage Extension (OSE).

OSE is a modern S3-compatible self-service storage native to VMware Cloud Director and it offers a wide range of features to manage unstructured data at scale. It is currently integrated with industry-recognized storage clusters such as Cloudian, S3 AWS and Dell ECS.
