Veritas InfoScale Storage + Essential Support — 4-Year On-Premise License

Discover enterprise-grade resilience and simplified procurement with Veritas InfoScale Storage + Essential Support. This on-premise subscription license is purpose-built for government organizations, delivered under the Veritas Government Licensing Program (GLP) to align with public sector purchasing workflows. The 4-year validation cycle ensures your storage environment remains consistently available, scalable, and secure, so mission-critical applications stay online when it matters most. With 1 Core Plus included, agencies gain predictable access to the full capabilities of InfoScale Storage while enjoying the stability and governance benefits that government buyers require.

• Core-based licensing with predictable budgeting: The 1 Core Plus license provides a clear, per-core model that simplifies budgeting for long-term storage management. The 4-year term locks in pricing and access rights, helping government teams forecast costs and avoid renewal surprises. This approach also supports scalable growth as data volumes and workloads expand across public sector departments, agencies, and programs. By tying the license to cores rather than individual servers, agencies can optimize density, consolidate workloads, and minimize licensing fragmentation while maintaining strict license compliance and audit-readiness.
• Uninterrupted availability and performance for critical workloads: Veritas InfoScale Storage delivers automated storage management, intelligent data placement, and speedy recovery across physical and virtual environments. With high-availability features such as automated failover, dynamic capacity optimization, and policy-driven data services, agencies can reduce downtime and meet stringent service levels. The result is predictable application performance for essential services like citizen portals, case management systems, and public safety platforms—even during maintenance windows or hardware failures.
• Government-focused pricing and compliance through GLP: This offering is designed specifically for government procurement, with GLP pricing and terms crafted to align with how public sector entities acquire software licenses and cloud services. The combination of government pricing, contract-friendly terms, and a flexible on-premise deployment model helps agencies stay compliant with procurement rules while preserving the speed and efficiency needed to serve constituents. The GLP framework also supports consistent renewals, reduced administrative overhead, and clearer audit trails for software licensing in government programs.
• Flexible deployment with storage virtualization and intelligence: InfoScale Storage provides storage virtualization, automated tiering, and policy-based data management to optimize how data flows across SANs, NAS, and direct-attached storage. This flexibility enables agencies to consolidate disparate storage silos, improve utilization, and simplify disaster recovery planning. By abstracting and pooling storage resources, IT teams can respond quickly to changing mission requirements and implement data-placement strategies that balance performance, capacity, and cost across the enterprise.
• Essential support and ongoing updates within the GLP framework: The Essential Support package delivers access to Veritas knowledge resources, product updates, and timely assistance from the vendor’s support ecosystem throughout the 4-year term. Government customers benefit from predictable support coverage, streamlined escalation paths, and access to service-level guidance that aligns with public sector expectations. As software updates and security patches are released, agencies can stay current without introducing procurement delays or renewal gaps while maintaining compliance with government procurement policies.
