| Magnitude 3D's clustered storage architecture confirms XIOtech's
position as a market-leading storage innovator. Once again, XIOtech
has challenged the storage industry status quo. Magnitude storage
solutions were the first to eliminate the complexity and planned downtime
associated with legacy storage area networks, significantly reducing
Total Cost of Ownership. Magnitude 3D now delivers the next leap in
resilient, uninterrupted storage availability, leveraging the benefits
of clustering within an agile, easy to manage storage infrastructure,
that seamlessly responds to changing business demands. |

| About XIOtech |
XIOtech's innovative approach to storage networking has rewritten
the Storage Area Networking handbook. Founded with the express goal
of providing on-the-fly, simplified storage configuration and management,
XIOtech challenges the status quo of traditional storage networking
design. Today, our Magnitude family of storage solutions continues
to deliver on our fundamental promise: enable customers to "do
more with less."
XIOtech has continuously demonstrated technology leadership, chalking
up an impressive array of innovations culminating in Magnitude 3D,
the industry's first distributed clustered storage solution. Magnitude
3D features Zero Server Footprint--requiring no software within the
server infrastructure to execute distributed, cluster-wide failover
and fastback. The Magnitude family of products shatters the legacy
glasshouse for storage solutions, resulting in industry-leading value
in terms of storage operations and management cost, as well as overall
total cost of ownership (TCO).
XIOtech has experienced double-digit revenue growth every year since
1999. Thanks to XIOtech innovation, over 1000 customers, including
Warner Bros., Merrill Lynch, Bechtel, Lucent, Andersen Corporation,
Hibernia Bank and St. Vincent Hospital, have achieved storage-networking
success with the Magnitude. XIOtech has also partnered with industry
leaders such as Microsoft, Oracle, Novell, VERITAS, Brocade, and Siemens
Medical. |
| Technology |
Magnitude 3D realizes the proven benefits of clustering within an
agile storage infrastructure. Patented technologies create fiber-distributed
storage clusters, setting the standard for resilience, responsiveness
and scale.
Unmatched Resilience
Dimensional Storage Clusters are designed for Multiple Layers of Resilience
(MLOR) across a distributed N-way storage architecture. Innovations
in resilience include failover at the controller and cluster level,
virtual server redirects across geo-distributed locations and dynamic
server and application management. Magnitude 3D resilience shines
in many cases where traditional SANs would suffer performance degradation,
data loss or outright failure.
Dynamic Responsiveness
Leveraging Magnitude's proven dynamic provisioning, Magnitude 3D eliminates
the need for planned downtime. IT staff update and adapt storage cluster
configurations in real-time, during business hours, without specialized
expertise. Magnitude 3D also features Magnitude's recognized simplicity
of management, delivering storage clustering without complexity.
Multiple Dimensions of Scale
The component architecture scales seamlessly from edge-to-core. Storage
clusters are optimally designed, geographically deployed, and independently
scaled based on business or application needs. Capacity and performance
are incrementally scaled, without application disruption. Data access,
replication and management are seamless across all Magnitude family
configurations.
