The company will also demonstrate the latest Serverless Computing™ solutions at booth #2882.

"NAV has broad experience in bringing new technologies to the gaming market," said Cyndi Freschi, founder and president of North American Video. "Our proven formula is working with vendors like Pivot3 that bring more functionality at a lower cost."
"We want to congratulate our most successful channel partners with this award," said Lee Caswell, founder and chief marketing officer of Pivot3.

Pivot3 Serverless Computing consolidates physical servers into a SAN by adding server virtualization into each scale-out SAN appliance. Unlike conventional head-end storage arrays, the Pivot3 solution has ample hardware resources to offer both server and storage virtualization. Pivot3 SAN software aggregates the storage resources of each SAN appliance, and hosted servers have access to the resources of all the aggregated SAN appliances. Both data and applications are protected in the case of appliance failures.
