Unified Data Storage Appliances for Small to Medium Businesses in Cloud and Virtual Environments.

Overview

The IceWEB 2000 unified data storage appliance provides the absolute best performance, features and price for small to medium businesses optimizing file and block data storage utilization in cloud and virtual environments.

Simplify - Standardize - Optimize

IceWEB's unified storage appliances provide a single platform for all your storage needs. Simplify your data center environment, cloud and virtualization deployments by optimizing your storage resources through a single pane of glass.

Easy to Use

The IceWEB 2000 unified storage appliance provides organizations of all sizes with an automated, application-ready storage platform that is easy to acquire and manage; and sets up in 5 minutes or less.

Lightning Fast

When upgraded to include IceWEB's Solid State Kit, IceWEB's Cache Acceleration Protocol (IceCAP™) dramatically increases read/write IO performance of recently accessed data stored in the cache.

In addition, the IceWEB 2000 features accelerated write cache that uses Solid State Technology to log calls for data to be written to the hard disks. Our intellectual property enables small and large blocks to be cached and accessed at a substantially faster rate than competing technologies.

Complete Protection and Reliability

Rest assured that your mission critical data is safe with all of the data protection and reliability features you'd expect in an enterprise class appliance --

Hot swappable hard drives with preemptive drive failure notification
Built-in support for single parity, double parity, and triple parity RAID protection
Automatic error correction ensures data integrity
Zero-impact, zero reservation snapshots reduce RPO and RTO for near-zero recovery time and data loss
Thin provisioning greatly increases utilization
Flexible replication services (local or remote, bi-directional, real-time or scheduled)
Mirror HA

Powerful Storage Management Capabilities

Driving the IceWEB 2000's powerful features is IceWEB's proprietary IceSTORM™ operating system, providing all of the management and application software capabilities needed to support today's cloud and virtual computing environments. The intuitive IceSTORM interface simplifies the use of its sophisticated storage management capabilities, and includes a full complement of enterprise level storage optimization features at a price that's affordable for any IT budget:

Thin Provisioning: Efficient allocation of dynamic disk with option to provision iSCSI, NFS, CIFS, or FC to a new environment
Storage Pooling: Shared pool supporting multiple tiers of storage
Active Directory & LDAP Authentication
Clones: Deliver capacity savings of up to 90% with no performance impact, for testing and development
In Line Data Compression: Ranges from 1.2 to 3.8x compression; skips dense blocks to minimize IO load
Volume Level Inline Deduplication: Aggressive checksum/hash algorithm to obtain up to 90% deduplication levels (memory upgrade required)
Snapshots: Instantaneous, zero impact, zero capacity allocation
Snapshot Rollback: Instantaneous
Replication: Asynchronous, Synchronous and Encrypted
VM Integration: VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer

Convenient form factor

The IceWEB 2000 appliance ships as a 2U rack mount for density constrained data centers, with six GB ports for NAS/iSCSI.
