Finnish Cargotec Navis Installed Oracle Pillar Axiom 600 Replacing NetApp

Oracle Corporation
announced that Navis, LLC, a part
of Cargotec
Corporation, has replaced its NetApp, Inc.’s storage solutions with Oracle’s Pillar
Axiom 600 storage systems to support the engineering and development
environments for its SPARCS N4 terminal operating system.

Call center furniture channel Navis selected Pillar Axiom
storage systems identifying its QoS capability and easy-to-use
management capabilities as key factors.

"The Pillar Axiom 600 storage system’s
patented QoS architecture provides predictable performance
and consolidation capabilities that have helped Navis meet ever increasing
demands," Oracle said.

Additionally, by leveraging the replication and multi-system management
features of the Pillar Axiom 600 storage system, Navis is able to maintain
performance of its virtual machines, regardless of the types of environments it
provisions.

Adding
the Pillar Axiom 600 storage system to Navis’ existing Oracle footprint
spanning Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Database, Oracle VM, and Oracle’s x86
servers, the company is leveraging the benefits of Oracle’s hardware and
software engineered together to serve the needs of its customers.

Navis is using the combination of Oracle’s Sun Storage Archive manager (SAM)
software and Pillar Axiom 600 storage system along with StorageTek
tape solutions to automate the management of its data, active to archive, at a
lower cost than with disk-only environments.

"Navis was in the midst of
transitioning to a virtualized environment and we needed a storage solution
that would provide the performance and flexibility to meet the rapidly changing
demands of our business and our customers," said Stephen Schleiger,
manager of systems engineering, Navis. "It was clear from the beginning that Oracle’s Pillar Axiom Storage
Systems, with its QoS capabilities, would be able to provide the performance,
scalability and manageability we need for the long term, and at much lower
cost."
