As we ring in the New Year there’s still time to look back at what happened in 2025. As a community, Nonstop Compute came through a year demonstrating renewed interest in Nonstop. Whether it was about deploying new Nonstop converged systems, upgrading key infrastructure elements or simply expanding relationships with longstanding Nonstop vendors, it became very clear that the future of Nonstop remains bright.
Wherever we went and whoever we talked to, there remains an openness to further explore the potential of Nonstop. The strength of Nonstop remains steadfastly tied to the financial services industry but there are signs of growing interest among other industry verticals. Manufacturing is clearly one more opportunity for further growth of Nonstop but, as the community heard from Casey Taylor, Nonstop Compute VP & GM, at Nonstop Technology & Business Conference, 2025, acknowledging strength in financial services, then showcased “significant business across telco, distribution, media and healthcare.”
For NTI, 2025 was year where the company celebrated its high-profile participation at Nonstop events worldwide, the immediate success of newly introduced products, and the expansion of the company’s partners ecosystem. Coming on the heels of the successful launch of NTI’s migration platform and the introduction of two new partner products, there was no holding back when it came time for the team to celebrate the holiday season.
“We gathered team members from distant parts to join with us
in Columbus, Ohio, for a time of celebration.
“It’s always good to end the year on a high note and for NTI,
even as the snow fell, the shared warmth among team members
was a positive outcome following a successful year!”
Kate Nee, NTI Vice President
Our participation in Nonstop events was hard to miss. Whether it was E-BITUG 2025 or Nonstop TBC 2025, we ensured all conference attendees could see our presence and gave us ample opportunity to converse with team members. When you consider how far NTI has come these past few years, visibility alone doesn’t tell the full story. Irrespective of the sponsorships being silver, gold, platinum and more, for the NTI team, 2025 was a year we truly struck gold. NTI marketing elevated the posture of NTI but more importantly, new products became available, new partnerships delivered and yes, customers migrated away from legacy solutions to more modern offerings from NTI. As a company we embraced migrations as a way to publicly convey how well we were meeting Nonstop customer requirements midway through this decade.
For many years now our partners ecosystem has been the subject of a concerted effort to attract additional partnerships into the NTI ecosystem. A program to tap the skillsets of others in technologies adjacent to the core competencies of NTI. TANDsoft has been one such partner for some time and they possess our industries fastest FS: Compare and Repair. This year, we added Infrasoft to the NTI partner ecosystem and struck gold immediately. For NTI, the availability of DRNet®/Kafka, powered by uLinga and DRNet®/Gateway, powered by uLinga steps in to better address the needs of customers looking to modernize their environment.
Where Kafka has cemented its place as a popular vehicle when it comes to deploying a distributed event streaming platform. When it comes to modernization, DRNet®/Gateway is the bridge many Nonstop customers have been asking for as it enables seamless protocol and data transformation across multiple applications and devices. Do you have a need to better secure transmitted messages but your solution hasn’t been updated? Not a concern as this is one target application for DRNet®/Gateway. The latest article in Nonstop Insider, Infrasoft and NTI: Delivering on the promise of Partnerships provided additional information on DRNet®/Gateway.
Much more can be achieved with both partner Infrasoft ‘s products powering DRNet®/ – and more use cases will follow in 2026 so look for them on the NTI web site – and with TANDsoft and Infrasoft anchoring the NTI partner ecosystems, NTI is looking to add additional vendors in 2026 as we look to leverage the movement of data rapidly, securely and cost-effectively. Look too at the Winter 2025 edition of the NTI Quarterly Newsletter for further updates on NTI conference participation as well as on new product introductions, and the partner ecosystem expansion.
Our marketing message became even more recognizable as it’s NTI that moves the data that moves your business. This is an acknowledgment that Business Continuity delivered to enhance Disaster Recovery (D/R) proved to be just a starting point. The excellence of the DRNet® platform based on Change Data Capture (CDC) means that we can spread out the potential targets of such captured changes to either update the D/R site, load to third party databases including Oracle and IBM’s DB2, and format within messages targeting external processes. It is this last category where NTI’s support for Hybrid IT, a key element within the support for moving your data, is getting traction within the Nonstop customer community.
Moving the data that moves your business today provides a path not only recognizable by movement but by its flexibility in migrating away from legacy data replication products. It is also a direct connection to Nonstop customer modernization pursuits. There’s no discounting of the impact that AI is having on industry in general and the desire of many Nonstop customers to provide Nonstop solutions no matter the industry vertical supported with an acceptable data streaming platform delivering data in real time. “NTI is seeing the interest in our data streaming platform as being among the strongest catalyst for DRNet® deployment seen in many years,” said Kate Nee.
In the coming year, NTI will once again be hard to miss and to all of our customers, partners, consultants and friends at HPE, the very best wishes for 2026 from all of us at NTI!
