WhipTail Announces SSD Appliance

SUMMIT, N.J. -- Nearly every mid- to large-sized enterprise has experienced the effects of disk contention and latency; however, the majority of IT directors and CIOs continue to heavily invest in more magnetic disk. That is, until now. Today, WhipTail Technologies LLC, a provider of solid-state storage appliances founded in December 2008, announced the launch of its WhipTail™ product – a Citrix Ready™, patent-pending solid-state storage appliance that provides companies with a unique alternative that maximizes throughput; solves disk contention issues; and simplifies management of transaction-intensive and mission-critical applications, such as order processing, e-commerce, data-intensive report generation and record retrieval.

More specifically, when compared with traditional storage, WhipTail units:

"Due to complexity, power limitations, cooling issues and capital costs, most managers never size their magnetic disks to provide optimum performance – leaving them with underperforming systems and limiting overall business flexibility. As a result, critical decisions are being made based on lagging indicators," said Ed Rebholz, CEO of WhipTail Technologies. "WhipTail provides a solution to these problems that not only works, but is also cost-effective. There's really nothing else like it on the market."
