 |
May 22, 2007 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Web hosting provider The Planet (http://www.theplanet.com) has added enterprise-class storage to its Private Rack Portfolio, the company announced yesterday. The company has added storage area network (SAN) capabilities to its offerings that provide “maximum data availability and protection, particularly for those whose businesses require critical online data repositories, including databases, media libraries, backup archives and email.”
The Planet’s new storage solution from Network Appliance provides The Planet’s customers with maximum data availability and protection, particularly for those whose businesses require critical online data repositories, including databases, media libraries, backup archives and email.
The Planet’s announcement follows the company’s recent addition of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) 5500 Series Firewalls and Foundry ServerIronXL load balancers to its comprehensive private rack portfolio. For Web 2.0 companies and SaaS providers that operate complex hosting environments, the new products add a range of enhancements.
According The Planet, NetApp FAS systems are the industry’s broadest family of compatible storage systems, offering unmatched business agility, superior application uptime and simplicity of management. By coupling high-performance storage with unique data management software, NetApp delivers increased availability of critical data and simplification of complex data management environments. In addition, these high-performance systems have a proven ability to continuously serve data at higher than 99.99% availability. With NetApp storage systems, customers can gain access to predictive technology that alerts the customer, The Planet, and NetApp to an impending support need. The combination of NetApp SyncMirror software and RAID-DP technology provides maximum subsystem fault tolerance that exceeds most industry solutions, but with similar cost overhead and read-performance benefits.
“With the proliferation of e-commerce and e-mail, the data needs of our customers continue to explode,” explained Mr. Steve Kahan, Vice President of Marketing and Product Management at The Planet. “Our new storage options enable customers to gain the same enterprise capabilities usually available only to larger organizations. As a result, they are able to make faster decisions, better serve their own customers and continue to grow their businesses without the worry of IT management. For those who have outgrown the storage provided by local hard disks, the new NetApp storage solutions provide a powerful, affordable option.”
“Reliability, scalability and simplified management are hallmarks of NetApp storage solutions,” added Network Appliance’s Vice President of Solutions Marketing, Mr. Patrick Rogers. “Customers want solutions that do not compromise their data or application availability. NetApp systems allow customers to confidently expand storage requirements within The Planet’s private racks in a cost-effective manner.” |
