Overview

XIV Ltd. has revolutionized enterprise storage, ushering in a new era for enterprise organizations and their IT teams. The company has done so by creating Nextra, the world’s first “single-architecture” system, bringing outstanding results while eliminating the need to split storage solutions between tiers and architectures.

XIV is led by Moshe Yanai, one of the key architects of data storage systems and instrumental in the development of EMC's Symmetrix and DMX product lines throughout the 1990s. XIV was founded in 2002 by five graduates of the Talpiot program, Israel's elite military program for technology leaders. The innovative Nextra technology has been in development since 2002, with first customer installations in 2005.

Today, Nextra has a rapidly growing installed base in the United States, Europe, and Asia, with production systems installed within leading banks, telecom providers, Internet companies, and government organizations.

The company has attracted top-notch storage, computing and engineering talent, including veterans of IBM, EMC, and other industry-leading storage companies. All bring their ample experience and best-practice knowledge to every aspect of the company’s endeavors.

Some XIV trivia... Why XIV? It's the Roman numeral for 14 — all five co-founders graduated from the 14th class of the prestigious Talpiot technology program.
