STERLING, Va. -- IceWEB, Inc.(TM) (OTCBB: IWEB), www.IceWEB.com, a leading provider of Unified Data Storage and building blocks for cloud storage networks, announced today that it will soon release an innovative, high-end IceWEB storage platform that will allow for multiple performance tiers of storage in a single platform. This capability allows cloud service providers to support multiple applications and services in a single cost effective platform. Cloud service providers can provision database and virtual machines from the performance tier and backup services from a capacity tier. Additionally, IceWEB customers can apply solid-state disk drive to the performance tier to create a hybrid storage pool ... all part of the company's focus on high-performance, unified cloud storage systems.

International Data Corporation (IDC) estimates that in 2010, the networked storage market rose to $17.55 billion. A growing segment of that market is at the high-end as new business information increases 50% every year (Forbes Magazine, 8-22-11).

This dramatic increase in data provides opportunity for everyone. On the supply side, demand for unified storage systems continues to increase. On the consumer side, businesses now have high-speed data access to help them make better decisions, identify business trends, and discover new customer preferences.

"The recent announcements of our IceWEB 6000-HA (High Availability) and 6000-HB (Hybrid) Unified Storage Platforms are major steps to meet the emerging needs of these high-performance cloud-driven customers," said John R. Signorello, IceWEB CEO. "And, our recent solid state drive announcements, hybrid array technology and new expansion disk shelves are all part of our master plan to increase share in this fast growing high performance market."
