Barryhund Selects Coraid Ethernet SAN

Coraid, Inc. announced that Barryhund Administrators, Inc. has selected
Coraid EtherDrive for their Ethernet SAN storage.

Barryhund is a cloud computing SaaS company headquartered in Sacramento,
California that provides construction companies with an online project and bid
management web portal.

Coraid’s Ethernet SAN solutions provide enterprises of all
sizes with flexible, scale-out storage. Using
software, off-the-shelf hardware and standard Ethernet, Coraid EtherDrive
storage arrays provide lower OPEX and a 5-8X price/performance advantage over
legacy storage. EtherDrive is suited to dynamic performance
computing, virtualization, video and cloud computing environments.

"The nice thing about Coraid EtherDrive storage running
over Ethernet is that it was easy to install. It’s enterprise-class storage
with no single point of failure, yet Coraid designed it with ease of use in
mind," said Rex Klein, CEO of Barryhund Administrators, Inc.

Coraid Ethernet SAN leverages raw Ethernet with ATA over Ethernet
(AoE) and the CorOS distributed storage operating system to deliver better than
Fibre Channel performance at up to 1800 MB/s of throughput using low cost,
industry standard hardware. EtherDrive scales to multiple petabytes with a flat
Ethernet topology and connectionless, parallel design. Deployment and
configuration of EtherDrive is simple; a host can configure and address new
storage in under 60 seconds. The scale-out design also enables a Zero-Hour
Support customer-service offering based on Coraid’s disk-portability
technology, which allows users to swap drives between arrays for upgrades,
service reconfiguration, data transfers or disaster recovery on the fly.
