Aspera Enterprise Server Awarded Best of Show at Bio-IT Awards.Leading High-speed File Transfer Company Wins IT Infrastructure Category for Moving Vast Data Sets to Accelerate Research and Business Opportunities EMERYVILLE, Calif. -- Aspera, creators of next-generation software technologies that move the world's digital assets at maximum speed regardless of file size, transfer distance or network conditions, was awarded the Best of Show Award for its Aspera Enterprise Server in the IT Infrastructure category at the recent Bio-IT World Conference & Expo in Boston. Judged by a team of Bio-IT World magazine editors and highly regarded industry experts, the Best of Show Awards recognizes new products which demonstrate exceptional technology innovations across the life sciences research, discovery and clinical trials process. Aspera Enterprise Server is being used by organizations such as the National Center for Biotechnology Information The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is part of the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM), a branch of the National Institutes of Health. The NCBI is located in Bethesda, Maryland and was founded in 1988. (NCBI NCBI National Center for Biotechnology Information (NIH) NCBI National Coalition Building Institute NCBI National Council for the Blind of Ireland (Dublin, Ireland) ), National Institutes of Health (NIH "Not invented here." See digispeak. NIH - The United States National Institutes of Health. ) and the European Bioinformatics Institute The European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) is a centre for research and services in bioinformatics, and is part of European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). It is a pioneer of novel and developmental bioinformatics research. to move vast data sets, such as genomic genomic pertaining to a genome. genomic clone see clone. genomic DNA the DNA sequences making up the genome of an individual. genomic library see gene bank. sequences, across global networks without impacting other network applications. With the ability to exchange critical data globally at maximum speed, life sciences companies using Aspera are able to accelerate strategic research, and maximize productivity and business opportunities. "Each year our exhibitors present the tools and solutions that are critical to driving the drug discovery and clinical industries forward," said Allison Proffitt, managing editor of Bio-IT World. "There is a wealth of cutting edge and smart technologies for our judges to choose from. We congratulate Aspera as one of the 2009 Best of Show winners and look forward to seeing how Aspera Enterprise Server enables and transforms the industry." "We've recently seen strong demand from life sciences, biotech bi·o·tech n. Informal Biotechnology. biotech Noun short for biotechnology Noun 1. and healthcare companies eager for more efficient means to transport ever increasing amounts of data and are pleased to contribute to potentially life-changing endeavours such as NCBI/NIH's 1000 Genomes Project," said Michelle Munson, president and co-founder of Aspera. "It is a great honor As a verb, to accept a bill of exchange, or to pay a note, check, or accepted bill, at maturity. To pay or to accept and pay, or, where a credit so engages, to purchase or discount a draft complying with the terms of the draft. to be recognized by Bio-IT World for our technology and we will continue to develop innovative products that help drive cutting edge research and development." Aspera's next-generation fasp transport technology eliminates network bottlenecks and dramatically increases transfer speeds - up to 1000x over standard FTP FTP in full file transfer protocol Internet protocol that allows a computer to send files to or receive files from another computer. Like many Internet resources, FTP works by means of a client-server architecture; the user runs client software to connect to - regardless of transfer distance, file size and network conditions. Aspera software technology fully utilizes existing network infrastructures to deliver the fastest, fully predictable, end-to-end end-to-end a pattern of anastomosis in which severed ends are matched and united, in contrast with other patterns such as end-to-side or side-to-side.
