platform.

HC3 Platform
It combines
servers, storage and virtualization into a clustered, available solution
analysts call hyperconverged. Built for midsize companies the HC3x eliminates
the need for licenses and complex systems such as VMware and SANs from
virtualized environments. As a result the deployment is simplified while
delivering a single, scale-out environment with built in HA.

In a lab
report, industry analyst Taneja Group reports: "We measured deployment and configuration of HC3 as 10 minutes to set up
a hardware cluster, and 2 minutes to deploy the first VMs.

"HC3 is all about
utilizing our ICOS technology to simplify infrastructure management. We deliver
a self-healing platform that takes the headache out of infrastructure
management,
" said Jason Collier, company’s CTO. "With the new HC3x platform, we’re able to
extend the Scale HC3 experience into even the most demanding environments.
"

HC3x
The extension
is a syste with twice the memory per node, 50% more compute cores and fast drive
technology. It allows for roughly double the VMs per node over the
existing HC3 line and is targeted at customers with 50-200 VMs in their
environment, who are looking to realize the benefits and efficiencies of
private cloud. It includes the latest release of ICOS 4.2, the OS for the HC3
product lines. ICOS 4.2 adds support for VLANs and multiple virtual NICs per
VM.

Price
Starting at
under $25,500 for a three-node cluster,
the platform is tailored for organizations looking to achieve the efficiencies
of virtualization but don’t want the complexities and cost of VMware. With no
virtualization software to license or manage, no external storage to buy and a
built in hypervisor, it lowers TCO and simplifies the infrastructure needed to
keep applications running. It  makes the
deployment and management of a highly available and scalable infrastructure as
easy to manage as a single server. HC3x prices start at under $37,500 for a
three-node cluster.
