Astute Selected as Product of the Year Finalist by Storage Magazine
SAN DIEGO, CA, Jan 16, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Astute Networks(TM), Inc., the leading provider of performance
storage appliances, today announced that it has been selected as a
2012 Product of the Year finalist by Storage Magazine and
SearchStorage.com in the Enterprise Storage System category.
Featuring Astute's 100 percent Networked Flash(TM) architecture and
patented DataPump Engine(TM), ViSX performance storage appliances
eliminate I/O performance barriers for business critical applications
deployed in physical and virtual infrastructures.
Storage I/O constraints are the primary cause of unacceptable
performance for business-critical applications and virtualized
desktop infrastructure (VDI). Traditional hard disk-based storage
arrays and the current generation of hybrid storage products, with
their reliance on legacy controllers, were not designed to address
the performance limitations of today's most I/O intensive
environments such as databases, business intelligence and highly
virtualized applications. Astute overcomes these limitations with its
DataPump Engine protocol processor and Networked Flash(TM)
architecture that are at the core of every ViSX performance storage
appliance. As a result, ViSX removes the I/O bottlenecks and
eliminates the barriers to virtualizing Tier 1 business-critical
applications at an unprecedented level of performance, deployment
simplicity and cost-effectiveness.
ViSX Product Line Features Include:
-- Up to140,000 sustained random IOPS per 2U device
-- 19.2TB of reliable eMLC hot-plug flash modules per 2U
-- Support for 1 GbE and 10 GbE networks with redundant, dual-active
interfaces
-- Primary deduplication with zero impact on performance
-- VMware vCenter plug-in or easy to use FlashWRX management GUI
"Storage Magazine and SearchStorage.com are at the forefront of
educating enterprises on the technology innovations that are
transforming the way organizations address their physical and virtual
storage environments," said Len Rosenthal, senior vice president
marketing, Astute Networks. "This prestigious nomination comes on the
heels of an amazing year as our partners and customers are realizing
that ViSX is the most cost-effective, simplest, and least disruptive
way to deploy solid state flash storage to instantaneously eliminate
I/O performance barriers."
