Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI Named "Product of the Year" by Storage Magazine and SearchStorage.com
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, Feb 14, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Atlantis Computing(TM), the award-winning leader in data center
storage optimization solutions, today announced that Atlantis ILIO
Diskless VDI won Storage magazine and SearchStorage.com's Silver 2012
Product of the Year award in the Enterprise Storage System Software
category:
http://searchvirtualstorage.techtarget.com/feature/Atlantis-ILIO-Diskless-VDI-30.
The Enterprise Storage System Software category included file
systems, volume management, storage virtualization software, security
software, storage optimization applications and data reduction.
Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI beat out Virsto Software's Virsto for
vSphere; Caringo CAStor with Elastic Content Protection; iWave
Software Storage Automator; Afore Solutions CloudLink with Secure
Virtual Storage Appliance; Inktank Storage Ceph; Maginatics MagFS;
Proximal Data AutoCache; and Sanbolic AppCluster. Microsoft Windows
Server 2012 received the Gold Product of the Year award and VeloBit
HyperCache received the Bronze.
All the enterprise storage products were judged based on innovation,
performance, ease of integration into an environment, ease of use and
manageability, functionality and value.
"Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI scored the highest average marks for
performance of all the entries in the storage system software
category," said SearchStorage.com Senior Writer Carol Sliwa. "One
judge on our panel called Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI software 'highly
innovative software that reduces VDI infrastructure requirements and
admin manual-labor-intensive tasks.' The judge viewed the product as
the 'true definition of doing more with less: higher performance at
lower cost.'"
"We are honored for Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI to win this Product of
the Year award," said Bernard Harguindeguy, president and CEO of
Atlantis Computing. "This is the latest in a series of awards
including Best of VMworld US and EMEA and Best of Citrix Synergy,
which underscores how Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI helps our customers
drive down infrastructure costs, boost desktop performance and
automate deployments to further reduce risks."
Atlantis ILIO Diskless VDI is the only solution in the industry to
enable stateless Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) deployments
without the need for virtual desktop storage -- which traditionally
represents 40% to 60% of the total cost of a VDI deployment. Atlantis
ILIO uses local server RAM as the only storage for virtual desktops,
eliminating storage traffic and significantly simplifying deployment
architectures. SSDs, SSD arrays and traditional SAS and SATA drives
based storage are completely eliminated, greatly reducing CAPEX as
well as all storage-related OPEX including power, cooling and the
cost of maintaining and repairing failed devices.
Atlantis ILIO automates all deployment phases including the storage
sizing which traditionally represents one of the biggest deployment
risks -- without storage sizing, deploying stateless desktops has
never been so simple. Atlantis ILIO also automates its installation,
configuration and data store creation for all virtual desktops --
multiple racks of servers can be deployed in hours. Traditional tools
from Citrix and VMware can be used to finalize provisioning.
