ICEWEB: NAILING UNIFIED STORAGE’ WITH CLEAR DIFFERENTIATION

Experts acclaim IceWEB’s ‘enterprise-grade storage subsystem’ and ‘highly polished interface that looks more sophisticated than a lot of the other stuff that has been coming to the market.’

STERLING, VA. – (PR NEWSWIRE) – April 19, 2012 – IceWEB, Inc.™, www.IceWEB.com, a leading provider of Unified Data Storage appliances for cloud and virtual environments, announced today industry analyst firm Taneja Group, Inc. has published a report on IceWEB’s differentiation and superiority in unified data storage amidst a crowded market of traditional storage vendors.

Authored by Jeff Boles, Taneja Group Sr. Analyst / Director – Validation Services, the report underscores the industry’s movement toward unified storage systems, and portrays IceWEB as one standout vendor due in part to the company’s enterprise grade storage systems and IceSTORM Operating System.

A full reproduction of the report follows: 

IceWEB: Nailing Unified Storage

IceWEB is a unified storage player that has been in the market for a number of years, with a big footprint in federal government. But the market is awash in new primary storage offerings, many of them focused on unified storage. NetApp obviously held the reigns for a long time, but a few representative recent contenders include Scale Computing, Nexsan’s E5000, Dell's Fluid File System offerings, companies like Nimbus, and more. This newly crowded market means that even established unified storage companies have to have concrete differentiators from their competitors, or they’ll lose out to more attractive new offerings.

IceWEB seems to have some clear differentiators including an enterprise-grade storage subsystem and a user interface that is more user-friendly than many we’ve seen. These two differentiators should help IceWEB to go further than competitors in delivering both infrastructure and operational efficiency.

·         The underlying storage subsystem seems to be built for enterprise-class primary use, and is architected for better workload isolation and more granular performance tiering (including across SSD) than many products in the market.

·         A highly polished interface that looks more sophisticated than a lot of the other stuff that has been coming to the market. At first glance an interface may not seem like a real thrill. But a highly useable interface is conducive to better user adoption and comfort, which in turn makes a unified storage offering even more attractive and marketable.

It seems like IceWEB has something to show off, and I'm personally looking forward to putting their product under the magnifying glass to see if the efficiency factors really surface. Perhaps we'll see them in the Taneja Group Lab in the near future.

“Taneja Group’s publication on IceWEB today places the latest building block in the industry’s growing consensus of IceWEB’s value and differentiation in unified data storage,” said Steven Toole, IceWEB’s CMO. “In the rapidly evolving information technology sector where yesterday’s leaders can quickly fall from grace, it’s independent industry experts such as Taneja Group who keenly spot the next rising stars on the horizon. Enterprise IT decision makers expecting more from storage vendors will look to this analyst expertise to guide their buying decisions.”

Storage Switzerland Fan of IceWEB

This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Wed, April 18th, 2012

"Surprisingly ready to compete with major name brand providers of unified storage"

IceWEB, Inc. has received further validation of its value among mid-enterprise organizations with an independent storage expert analyst report released by Storage Switzerland, LLC.

Written by storage veteran George Crump, the report recapped IceWEB's current momentum in building and delivering unified data storage systems with enterprise features, performance and scalability that are affordable.

Key points of the report are as follows
"What impressed us most about the universal unified storage solutions from IceWEB was the extensive feature set, especially given their extremely competitive prices (IceWEB claims to be 30% lower than the street price of their name brand competitors). With the release of IceSTORM, the company is proving it's its products are more than just me too storage systems and is certainly worthy of consideration for any sized data center looking to reduce its storage management burden."

"The problem is that the cost of feature-rich unified storage from traditional enterprise storage has been outside the realm of typical SME budgets. As a result most of these IT managers end up either making their needs fit the limitations of a single service solution (SAN only / NAS only) or they buy both a SAN and a NAS, which adds complexity and cost. IceWEB is positioning their Unified Storage solutions to deliver a feature-rich storage system at price points the SME can afford."

"From a data services perspective the IceSTORM is surprisingly ready to compete with the major name brand providers of unified storage. It has the ability to pool and tier storage based on drive type; for example, logs can be placed on SSD, databases on high performance SAS and file shares on SATA. The SSD tier can also be used as a cache, so that active data will automatically be served from solid state. And, the system provides extensive data protection capabilities including eight types of RAID, data replication, data integrity checking and snapshots."

IceWEB's CMO Steven Toole commented on the report: "Storage Switzerland is a long-trusted, unbiased authority in data storage technologies. They're very smart people so it comes as no surprise to me that they see the value IceWEB brings to mid-enterprise organizations looking to simplify their cloud and virtual environments, increase the efficiency of their storage resources across multiple protocols, and obtain enterprise capabilities and performance at a fraction of the cost of traditional storage vendors. As more analysts become aware of IceWEB, we're certain that additional positive reports will follow."

Although considerably smaller than the other suppliers in this evaluation, ZL

Technologies delivers rich archiving functionality. Large enterprises use the vendor’s Unified

Archive product to archive email, files, SharePoint, and other content types and applications.

Beyond basic archiving, the product includes strong search, supervision, and eDiscovery

capabilities and the vendor continues to make advances on these fronts. ZL Technologies has an

extensive, integrated set of offerings to support message archiving, but in comparison with other

vendors in this evaluation the vendor’s go-to-market resources are limited and it has acquired

far fewer total customers.

Nasuni Data Continuity

As a next-generation storage controller, one of the Filer’s most critical jobs is to ensure that a gold copy of your data and all its versions are periodically sent to the cloud, and that the data residing in your office for current use is in the form of copies. The Filer’s advanced, cloud-specific snapshot technology achieves just that. The Filer’s other most critical job is to encrypt the data with OpenPGP AES-256 at the edge, so the data can never be breached without your encryption keys (which we encourage you to hold in a secure offsite location). With the technology in place to assure that your data in the cloud is both fully versioned and secure, many exciting new features become possible.

These new controllers work seamlessly with the cloud to deliver Nasuni’s Data Continuity Services: global access, offsite protection, unprecedented ease of data restoration and recovery, rock-solid local performance and immediate access to as much storage as you need. Our system is secure, controlled by you, and backed by a robust service level agreement (SLA), so you can take advantage of the high efficiencies and cost effectiveness of the cloud with complete confidence.

NavigateStorage has a unique solution that you must know more about. After learning a bit more then go to the website and see the new world about Nasuni don't forget the partner who sent you - NavigateStorage.  978-318-9000
