Merlin-International
and Alacritech, Inc. have entered into a reseller agreement whereby Merlin International will
provide Alacritech’s line of Network File System (NFS) data acceleration
products to the U.S. Federal Government under their Enterprise Infrastructure
solutions.
"We are very pleased
to be partnering with Alacritech," said John Trauth, President of Merlin
International. "The Alacritech ANX 1500 is a product that can
greatly benefit our federal customers looking to get the most performance out
of their NAS infrastructure in a very straightforward non-intrusive way. As
data growth continues to explode and budgets either stay flat or decline,
technologies such as the ANX 1500 can help bridge the gap between continued
expectations for high performance and budget realities."
"Alacritech is very
excited to have Merlin as a partner,"
said Maura Fox, Alacritech Sales Director. "The
Alacritech ANX 1500 can help Merlin’s customers get the most out of their NAS
infrastructure, delivering exceptional throughput and record breaking low
latency as demonstrated by published independent SPECsfs results."
According to Jeff Boles of the Taneja Group: "The Alacritech ANX 1500 is an excellent
example of a new era of performance layer architectures designed to
non-intrusively sit alongside capacity layer NAS infrastructure to deliver
prescriptive performance boosts without incurring the heavy costs traditionally
associated with scaling NAS for performance."
The ANX 1500 is available through Merlin International under
NASA SEWP (#NNG07DA238).
