| Pack Solutions Selects Seanodes Shared Internal Storage Seanodes announces that Pack Solutions, one of France's financial advisor firms, has selected Seanodes Shared Internal Storage technology to create a shared highly reliable storage pool across the company's one dozen Linux servers allowing future plans to deploy Xen's virtualization platform. Pack Solutions turned to Seanodes for a better storage solution after suffering with the limitations and reliability issues of its previous collection of a dozen application servers with direct-attached storage and NFS servers. Supporting multiple application servers and attempting to adequately provision storage capacity for each server was an overwhelming issue for which Pack Solutions lacked the equipment, expertise and budget. The storage difficulties that Pack Solutions had to deal with are typical of what most SMB users face every day with a highly complex storage infrastructure but without the IT budget or internal storage, staff and expertise to be able to deal with the problem effectively. These businesses are often reduced to having a general network administrator deal with complex storage issues with disappointing results. While Pack Solutions recognized the need to deploy a networked storage architecture the conventional solutions were cost prohibitive for what was required to allow the company to evolve its storage resources to adequately fit with their project and needs for new applications requirements, including Xen server virtualization solutions. Exanodes Shared Internal Storage solved the problem with a networked storage solution that was simple to install and manage with no need for specific storage competencies with a level of performance, reliability and scalability that was unmatched by other storage options. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Networking News :: home page |
