Emic Networks Announces Support for Mac OS X; Emic Application Cluster Adds High Availability and Load Balancing To XServe G5.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers LinuxWorld New York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of 2004 NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 20, 2004 Emic Networks today announced that it will be adding support for Mac OS X to Emic's Application Cluster (EAC EAC an abbreviation used in studies of complement, in which E represents erythrocyte, A antibody, and C complement. ) products for Apache and MySQL servers. EAC application clustering products are designed to provide best price/performance cluster platform for horizontal scaling In multiprocessing, adding more computer systems to the environment. Contrast with vertical scaling. of web applications. EAC scales economically from small and medium size environments to high-end server platform environments. EAC's benefits include performance scalability and load balancing The fine tuning of a computer system, network or disk subsystem in order to more evenly distribute the data and/or processing across available resources. For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them , fault tolerance and continuous availability with fast fail-over, and centralized cluster management. "The network continues to be a mission critical business system for organizations of all sizes. XServe G5 is the ideal server for cross-platform file and print, workgroup management, video streaming, database applications, high-performance computing, and web and mail serving, " said Eero Teerikorpi, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Emic Networks. "With Emic Application Cluster, you now can add application cluster to this list. It allows Xserve customers to achieve greater scalability and reliability with the industry's fastest synchronous replication." "The XServe G5 is affordable, easy to manage and delivers unparalleled performance with up to 30 gigaflops (GIGA FLoating point OPerations per Second) One billion floating point operations per second. See FLOPS. (unit) gigaflops - (GFLOPS) One thousand million (10^9) floating point operations per second. of processing power per system," said Ron Okamoto, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. "The addition of Emic Application Cluster makes the Xserve G5 a perfect solution for high availability Web sites."
