I’m delighted to share that Tintri has once again been recognised at the Storage Awards 2026, held on 18 June at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London—one of the industry’s most respected annual events.
This year was particularly special because Tintri received two complementary awards, which perfectly reflect what our technology has always been designed to deliver.
We were named Performance Storage Vendor of the Year for the fifth consecutive year and also won Storage Optimisation Company of the Year.
Individually, each award is a tremendous achievement. Together, they tell the real Tintri story.
Performance without optimisation is expensive. Optimisation without performance delivers little value. Tintri VMstore has always been engineered to deliver both.
The Performance Storage Vendor of the Year award recognises our ability to consistently deliver the speed, resilience and responsiveness that modern organisations depend upon. In an era where business-critical applications simply cannot tolerate latency or downtime, performance is no longer a luxury—it is essential.
The Storage Optimisation Company of the Year award recognises the intelligence behind that performance. Organisations are under constant pressure to do more with existing infrastructure while controlling costs and reducing operational complexity. Tintri enables customers to maximise utilisation, reduce wasted capacity and automate storage management, all while ensuring applications receive exactly the performance they need.
In short, we optimise workload performance—not just storage.
This intelligent, application-centric approach has been at the heart of Tintri since the very beginning. Rather than simply building fast storage arrays, we built a platform that understands workloads, providing unprecedented visibility, automation and control.
Our workload-aware architecture understands the unique requirements of every application, intelligently delivering the right level of performance to every workload while optimising storage resources. Instead of treating every workload equally, VMstore ensures each application receives precisely the performance it needs—maximising efficiency, eliminating unnecessary over-provisioning, and reducing costs without compromising performance.
The result is infrastructure that works smarter, allowing organisations to reduce costs, simplify operations and confidently support their most demanding applications.
What makes the Storage Awards – affectionately known as “The Storries” – particularly special is that the winners are chosen by customers, partners, suppliers and industry professionals, the people who rely on enterprise storage every day.
These awards mean far more than adding another trophy to the cabinet. They reinforce our responsibility to continue innovating, listening to our customers and delivering solutions that help organisations unlock the full value of their data.
That’s the benchmark we’ve set ourselves—and we’re committed to raising it even further, by continuing to deliver intelligent, workload-aware data management platforms that redefine what’s possible in Enterprise IT Operations.
