systems and software that help enterprises meet the challenges of rising
datacenter costs and nonstop data growth. Nimbus systems streamline IT
operations by consolidating data stored on single-purpose and inefficiently
utilized storage arrays to a versatile and scalable storage infrastructure based
on 10 Gigabit Ethernet, unified SAN and NAS, and flexible storage tiers.
Featuring Nimbus' powerful
HALO storage OS,
these systems provide an ideal solution for storage consolidation,
virtualization, cloud computing, and rich content. For more information, visit

milestones and comments from
SSD Market
History
- In April 2008 - Nimbus announced an
SSD accelerator option in
its Breeze H-series 10GbE IP Storage (SSD ASAP). A system with
34TB of storage, and 64GB of mirrored SSD costs about $120,000.
Nimbus
carries on the torch of a network storage operating system - which under the
name "Cloudbreak" - was first developed by Nimbus's founder at
TrueSAN Networks
.
That's the kind of groundwork thinking you need to make an
SSD accelerated storage system work economically as part of a
hybrid HDD-SSD
array - while avoiding high manual setup, tuning and configuration costs.
In January 2009 - Nimbus launched its
DH200 - a 4
port 10GbE NAS - which supports upto 10TB of flash SSD storage. See also:-

| New
Directory for AoE Storage |
Editor:- January 15, 2010 -
StorageSearch.com has
published a new directory for AoE
(ATA-over-Ethernet) NAS Storage.
Although this
NAS mode first hit our news
pages in 2003 -
support for it hitherto has been miniscule and compatible products are only
available from a handful of vendors. |
 |
Will 2010 be the year that
it all changes? Maybe.
SSDs could play a part -
because less latency is wasted in this low level network storage interface. | | |
