NetEx Virtual HyperIP Among The Hottest Products At VMWorld
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NetEx®, the leader in high-speed data transport over TCP, was a runaway favorite vendor exhibiting at the recently concluded VMWorld conference due in large part to the introduction of its Virtual HyperIP® software-based data transport optimizer for VMWare ESX, which was named as one of the "15 Hot Products from VMWorld 2008" by CRN magazine.
The overview article touts the company's claim that its new Virtual HyperIP delivers 10 times the data replication of its previous solutions while offering bandwidth utilization of 90 percent between data centers or branch offices and sales performance up to 800 Mb/s with block-level compression between 2:1 and 10:1. In addition to its "Hot Products" win in CRN, the solution also garnered recognition from other leading industry publications, including Infostor and Byte and Switch.
Virtual HyperIP boosts the performance of storage replication applications from vendors such as EMC, NetApp, Symantec, IBM, Data Domain, and FalconStor. Virtual HyperIP mitigates TCP performance issues that are common when moving data over wide-area network (WAN) connections because of bandwidth restrictions, latency due to distance and/or router hop counts, packet loss and network errors. Like the company's award-winning appliance-based HyperIP, Virtual HyperIP eliminates these issues with an innovative software design developed specifically to accelerate traffic over an IP based network.
"The reaction that NetEx received at VMWorld was beyond belief and certainly ranks as one of the best shows that we've ever exhibited at," said Robert MacIntyre, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at NetEx. "And that reaction continues with the media attention we've attracted. It is certainly gratifying to have been named among the ‘hottest' products at the show and to have received the response that we did from editors, analysts and IT personnel in attendance. Virtual HyperIP's ability to reduce costs and simplify management while providing improved efficiencies in migration, replication and data transport optimization sets it head and shoulders over other WAN optimization offerings."
Virtual HyperIP supports best-of-breed replication applications that protect servers, NAS devices and/or storage arrays using GigE & IP infrastructures. Virtual HyperIP can operate with another remote Virtual HyperIP, or a remote HyperIP appliance.
