Silver Peak Helps EMC Isilon Customers Replicate Big Data 90x Faster Over the WAN
SANTA CLARA, CA, Apr 11, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Silver Peak Systems, the leader in data center class wide area
network (WAN) optimization, today announced that its WAN optimization
appliances have been tested and qualified with the EMC(R) Isilon
network attached storage (NAS) and SyncIQ replication products. The
two companies have benchmarked performance gains of up to 90x for
SyncIQ replication throughput and 99% bandwidth reduction across some
WAN environments. Enterprise customers benefit from accelerated "big
data" replication without the need to increase the WAN infrastructure
investment.
"EMC Isilon has set the standard for highly scalable file systems
with the highest performing replication tools," said Roger Frey,
senior director of alliances and solutions marketing for EMC. "WAN
optimization complements the Isilon solution by further maximizing
available WAN bandwidth and overcoming the ill effects of distance
and network congestion. Together, Silver Peak and EMC Isilon make
file access and big data backup easier and more affordable."
Silver Peak's full portfolio of physical and virtual WAN optimization
appliances optimize available WAN bandwidth and ensures that all WAN
traffic is not adversely impacted by distance or poor network
quality. By combining the Silver Peak advanced network optimization
techniques with EMC Isilon scale-out NAS, remote users can access
centralized files faster and more reliably than ever before, which
maximizes employee productivity. With Silver Peak, EMC Isilon SyncIQ
customers can replicate 90-times more data over WAN connections
shared by other EMC and non-EMC applications. This ensures recovery
point objectives (RPO) are met, and minimizes disaster recovery costs
by obviating the need for dedicated storage networks.
"As one of our largest global strategic partners, we are excited to
partner with EMC to help customers protect and access big data using
Isilon scale-out NAS," said Marc Trimuschat, vice president of
business development and alliances for Silver Peak. "Our network
approach to WAN optimization scales easily for big data workloads,
and allows customers to optimize bandwidth shared by other EMC
storage applications and general business applications like email and
unified communications."
Building on a Strong Partnership
The Silver Peak WAN optimization
appliances and Global Management System (GMS) have been available
through the EMC Select program since 2008, which enables customers to
purchase a complete solution for fast and reliable data access and
protection directly from EMC. Since joining the EMC Select program,
Silver Peak has been qualified and deployed on a wide range of EMC
replication products, including Isilon SyncIQ, SRDF/A, RecoverPoint,
Atmos, VPLEX Geo, and Celerra. With these qualifications, the two
companies have expanded their mutual list of interoperable products
to cover a wide range of enterprise deployment scenarios. Customers
using Silver Peak to optimize EMC applications include Donegal
Insurance, Golf Savings, NYK Logistics, Petco, and many others.
