AIC will be exhibiting at VMWorld 2014 US in San Francisco, CA between August 24th and 27th. Live demos highlighting high-availability and high-performance server and storage solutions utilizing the latest technology from industry leaders such as Avago, Open-E, Intel, ATTO and Toshiba will be featured. AIC’s new high availability servers provide the highest return on investment, along with maximum reliability and performance. Critical enterprise systems such as those supporting e-commerce, decision making and data availability rely on high availability as an integral part of their core function.

Germany-based storage virtualisation software provider Open-E has launched a new product aimed at the enterprise storage market.

Open-E Jupiter DSS – branded “software-defined storage” by the company – uses the ZFS file system and operating environment to add increased, and theoretically unlimited, scalability to Open-E’s existing Linux-based storage software platform.

CEO, Krzysztof Franek, said iSCSI SAN systems built with Open-E could be available at 25% of the cost of comparable systems from major storage suppliers.

Open-E Jupiter DSS can be deployed on any standard server and, with commodity drives to create iSCSI SANs of virtually unlimited capacity and volume size, said Franek.

Open-E, Inc. announced the availability of JupiterDSS (Data Storage Software).

 
It provides enterprise users performance with unlimited capacity and volume size.

Delivered through certified partners as a software defined storage system, JupiterDSS comes with features including thin provisioning, compression, and de-duplication.
 
"Our many thousands of global customers have been asking us to expand our capabilities to support larger and larger storage environments while maintaining our industry leading benchmarks of quality, reliability, performance, and price point," said Krzysztof Franek, CEO and president, Open-E. "I am very excited to announce an expansion of our product line to answer to that request, Open-E JupiterDSS. Through diligent work by our engineering team and listening to our customers and partners, we have created a software defined storage system that enables our customers to implement a unified SAN solution to their exact requirements."

Open-E, a developer of data storage software, has released the newest version of its flagship product, Open-E JupiterDSS (data storage software). This application comes with features such as thin provisioning, compression and de-duplication.

JupiterDSS is designed to take advantage of what the ZFS and Linux operating systems have to offer, and is accessible through a web-based graphical user interface (GUI). This, according to the company, eliminates the need to use a command line interface. The web GUI provides administration of features such as:

• Massive scalability through nearly unlimited LUN sizes
• Tiered RAM and SSD caching for additional performance
• Thin and over provisioning for advanced utilization and administration of storage capacity
• Data de-duplication and decompression
• Check-sum data integrity checking
• Self-healing for repairing silent data corruption
