IceWEB Receives Order From U.S. Federal Government

IceWEB, Inc. has received an order from a Federal Government Agency for an IceWEB Model 5000 unified storage system.

The system will be deployed in the agency’s Washington, D.C data center to provide cloud computing services for mission-critical applications. Configured for a VMware operating environment, the system includes dual 10Gb Ethernet, six 1Gb Ethernet, 24TB of SAS disk and 400GB of SSD.

"Building on a flawless implementation of IceWEB’s unified data storage systems deployed at this agency previously, this agency naturally expanded its deployment with IceWEB’s systems among all other vendors," said Tim McNamee, IceWEB VP Sales. "Our Model 5000 is now being deployed for the agency’s state-of-the-art cloud computing service center. With its 400GB of Solid State Drives, the IceWEB 5000’s hybrid storage pool, IceCAP, will dramatically increase the speed of Input/Output Operations (IOPS), providing the agency with optimized performance levels for mission critical applications."

IceWEB’s Unified Data Storage Systems are for cloud computing applications because they are designed to reduce complexity and control physical storage requirements through VMware compatibility, thin provisioning, compression, deduplication and both asynchronous and synchronous data replication. The IceWEB Model 5000 will be delivered during IceWEB’s fiscal second quarter which started on January 1, 2012.

All IceWEB Unified Storage Platforms are available through the company’s exclusive value-added distributor Promark Technology. Promark markets IceWEB products throughout the United States through its nationwide network of 1,200 channel partners.
