United States : STEC Solid State Drives Integrated With IBM's SAN Volume Controller (SVC) System.Byline: Mamta03 STEC STEC shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli. , Inc. (Nasdaq:STEC), today announces STEC's ZeusIOPS SSDs have been integrated into IBM's SAN Volume Controller (SVC (1) (Switched Virtual Circuit) A network connection that is established at the time the transmission is required and disconnected when the session is completed. ) system delivering improved system efficiency over SVC systems using traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). The SSD-enabled version of IBM's SVC provides yet another example of the wide adoption potential of STEC's high-performance SSDs within the world's leading storage systems into new applications, this time in the direction of virtualized storage. Already a leading Storage Virtualization System, the IBM SAN Volume Controller The IBM SAN Volume Controller (SVC) is a block storage virtualization appliance. SVC implements an indirection or "virtualization" layer in a Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN). Architecture SVC is deployed as a cluster of nodes. (SVC) is now SSD-Enabled and incorporates STEC's ZeusIOPS SSD See solid state disk. to deliver a SSD -transactional performance up to 800,000 read IOPS IOPS Input/Output Per Second IOPS Input/Output Operations Per Second (server performance measurement) IOPS International Organization of Pension Supervisors IOPS Information Operations Planning System IOPS Internet Official Protocol Standards per cluster, as well as the ability to add SSDs without disruption to the SVC system. These features exemplify how Enterprise SSD technology within the virtualized storage environment is able to improve overall system efficiency and deliver outstanding throughput and performance. "With this announcement, we are tying together two key trends in storage - SSD adoption in the Enterprise and storage virtualization," said Manouch Moshayedi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of STEC. "This type of collaboration between STEC and IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) further expands the reach of our SSD products into new applications. Through these efforts, we have demonstrated that we are able to improve the performance of even the most advanced systems in the virtualized storage arena and we are proud to have IBM as a valued partner."
