For customers seeking versatile and affordable SATA RAID array technology,
Globalstor offers a storage array with enterprise level functionality at
commodity based pricing.
Unlike most arrays with a single and proprietary controller designs, the
ExtremeStor-ES-F array is built around dual, active-active, Pentium® 4 RAID
controllers, running an embedded Linux OS. This provides customers powerful and
extremely flexible storage at a fraction of the cost of competitive
alternatives.
The ExtremeStor-EF-S is built for the lowest cost per terabyte, using standard
components and SATA disk technology, without sacrificing reliability or
performance.
Growing Storage Requirements
Storage capacity continues to grow at a rapid pace while IT budgets are
expected to stay flat or decrease. This presents budgetary challenges as well
as support issues for companies of all sizes as they struggle to keep up with
increasing storage demands with fewer resources.
In addition, companies large and small are finding that all their applications
need to be protected from unplanned downtime. Fully redundant storage arrays at
an affordable price will be a requirement for these customers, especially when
the storage becomes shared. Many storage vendors today require their customers
move to expensive and complex storage options to get this critical data
protection. In many cases, the cost and complexity is prohibitive, especially
for businesses with overburdened IT staffs. Customers require solutions that
offer low cost, reduced complexity and affordable high availability.
Globalstor’s Approach
The market needs a new storage approach. Globalstor's vision is to produce the
most competitive and affordable storage array systems on the market.
Globalstor’s standards based approach matched with advanced high availability
design results in a robust SATA RAID array tailored to specific needs and price
points.
