Storage Engine Demonstrates Data Storage IP over IB
Tinton Falls, NJ--- December 10, 2008: Tinton Falls, NJ--- December 10, 2008: Storage Engine, a leading provider of enterprise data storage solutions, in a joint test with multiple vendors for a major metropolitan rapid area transist system, proved the viability of leveraging high speed infiniband for complete application transparent failover of virtual machines within a metropolitan area. Infiniband was used as the IO and replication interface to provide high speed and low latency across 10 miles of dark fiber to achieve complete storage and server virtualization across geographical distance, enabling any disruption to be self healing and automatic across any location. We believe the solution will show the adoption of infiniband, coupled with virtualization of both servers and storage, will turn the notion of high cost Business Continuity Disaster Recovery on its ear. In these turbulent times, we feel the ability to drive down IT costs while improving the overall outcome will enable a competitive advantage for our customers.
