HyperIP Boosts Data Throughput Up
To 10 Times
NetEx, a provider of the world's fastest data transport with guaranteed
data
delivery for the past 20 years, announced HyperIP, the fastest accelerator for
high-volume data transfer over WAN IP networks.
HyperIP reduces bandwidth and equipment costs for enterprises with multiple
data centers connected by high-speed WANs including DS3 and OC3. The new
product dramatically alleviates TCP/IP degradation associated with longer
distance (200-plus miles) transmission of time-sensitive, mission-critical
data in applications such as storage networking, even on noisy or congested
networks. HyperIP will be featured Oct. 27-30 at the Storage Networking World
Show in Orlando, Fla.
NetEx CEO Craig G. Gust said, "We are looking forward to sharing results
that
demonstrate HyperIP's prowess in boosting application performance over long
distances up to 10 times on standard IP networks. No other IP solution offers
comparable speed acceleration and bandwidth conservation over extended
distances. It's like getting up to 10 WANs for the price of one."
He added that HyperIP's compression feature further elevates performance
and
effective throughput, emphasizing bottom line results in dramatically reducing
the total cost of ownership for TCP-based applications that move data over
WANs.
In addition to increasing operating efficiency by ensuring that challenging
data transfers are consistently completed on time, HyperIP is transparent and
non-disruptive. Unlike existing techniques for high-speed data transport,
HyperIP is a simple appliance that easily attaches to an existing network
infrastructure and requires no changes to servers, applications or network
devices.
NetEx reseller Sumisho Electronics Co Ltd (SSE) is testing HyperIP in Japan
with one of its largest customers for a long-distance business-continuity
application.
According to Fumio Miura, deputy general manager of IT Platform System
Solution Division of SSE, "We have a long history with NetEx's production
hardened products. We are confident that HyperIP will reduce the complexity
and costs associated with moving large amounts of data over long distances and
that it will offer customers a way to leverage their existing IP data
infrastructures and management systems."
Marc Staimer, president and CDS of Dragon Slayer Consulting said, "This is
exactly what the storage replication market needs. HyperIP enables storage
replication over IP sales to finally achieve market forecasts, eliminating
those nasty TCP/IP throughput and latency performance issues and reducing OpEx
costs."
Besides storage networking applications such as data mirroring, snapshot,
and
backup/restore for business continuity and disaster recovery, HyperIP is ideal
for bulk data transfer between mainframes and distributed servers for data
warehousing and data mining, transmission of financial, medical and digital
video images and high-performance technical computing.
NetEx is marketing HyperIP globally through direct sales and its
distributors
and storage partners in North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe. Details are
