agami Systems Redefines the Rules of Network Storage for Small and Medium-Size Businesses with an Enterprise-Class Unified Storage Solution
New AIS1006 Introduces Full Feature Set, Industry-Leading Performance, Enterprise Reliability, Free Replication and Full Multi-Protocol Support for $2,995 per Terabyte via the Web
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 7 -- agami Systems announced today it is redefining the rules of network storage by bringing together for the first time a highly functional yet affordable choice of storage to small and medium-size businesses (SMBs). With the agami Information Server AIS1006, agami Systems is delivering unprecedented levels of enterprise-class functionality, free live replication, industry-leading throughput levels of 300 MB/s and 6TB of capacity at a break-through price point of $2,995 per Terabyte. Available immediately at http://www.agami.com/, the AIS1006 is retailing for $17,970.
"With the development and introduction of the AIS1006, agami Systems is changing the way that SMBs think about unified storage. For too long, this community has been limited to low-end disk arrays or Windows server based solutions that typically fall short when it comes to breadth of features, performance, scalability, and reliability. Our offering directly addresses the storage needs of this fast growing yet under-served market and delivers simplified, yet advanced solutions at the right price point," says David Stiles, President and CEO, agami Systems, Inc.
The AIS1006 is based on agami System's hallmark style of network storage -- systems that don't compromise on functionality, raise the industry bar on performance -- at prices that enable customers of all sizes to reap the benefits of enterprise storage. The AIS1006 offers a feature set that includes full multi-protocol storage -- iSCSI, NFS, CIFS, NDMP, SNMP; full data integrity & reliability including RAID5 with parallel rebuild; full environmental monitoring with call-home features; Snapshots; and free live replication. The high performance iSCSI implementation is fully compatible with VMware, Microsoft Exchange, and Microsoft SQL Server.
As SMBs and remote offices confront the everyday challenges of data protection and ensuring business continuity, agami Systems' live file replication, agamiFSR, replicates file systems between a primary and a secondary AIS server, either synchronously or asynchronously, over a LAN or WAN. It can be used to replicate critical data, to consolidate data from several remote locations in real time, or to establish multiple remote locations for disaster recovery. With this functionality being offered free of charge on the AIS1006, SMB customers can for the first time implement the same kinds of disaster recovery and business continuity solutions deployed by large enterprises.
San Luis Diagnostic Center, an outpatient medical imaging center in Central California recognizes the potential of the AIS1006 as a cost-effective and reliable replication solution for protection of its critical medical imaging / PACS data from its primary agami Information Servers. "San Luis Diagnostic Center is a small outpatient unit but one that handles the diagnostic records of over 19,000 patients a year. Using an AIS3006 we've been able to consolidate over 150,000 digital medical files, retrieving even the largest, most complex examinations in seconds," says Dr. Fred Vernacchia, Medical Director of San Luis Diagnostics Center. "Now with the AIS1006 in production we're leveraging the additional capacity and built-in replication of the new system to synchronize with our existing appliance to ensure recoverability and business continuity."
Through agami's unique style of architecture for network storage that uses a blend of 64-bit Symmetric Multi-Processor (SMP) technology, enterprise-class SATA drives and HyperTransport I/O technology, agami Systems is offering SMBs and enterprise remote offices the highest levels of performance for both random and streaming I/O and that shatter existing price/performance levels.
In addition to functionality, performance and price, other key features and benefits of the AIS1006 include:
--Consolidated storage - iSCSI and NAS host connectivity that enables concurrent block and file I/O through an easy-to-use management interface
--Scalability - Support for up to 6 TB of capacity
--Simplified Manageability - Web-based management interfaces for easy configuration
--Low TCO - less than half the power and cooling requirements of Fibre Channel-based storage systems
agami Systems designed the AIS1006 to specifically support SMBs with their Server Virtualization environments, to consolidate and simplify their Windows-based storage environments, for disaster recovery applications and disk based backup and recovery applications, to enable remote office support and backup consolidation, and as a higher performance and better featured alternative to Windows-based storage solutions. Solution briefs for many of these applications are available at http://www.agami.com/site/solutions.
The AIS1006 is fully compatible with agami System's higher density and higher performance AIS3000 and AIS6000 products.
Pricing and Availability
Available now, the AIS1006 costs $17,970 and is being sold by agami Systems exclusively online at http://www.agami.com/.
