Since unveiling its vision for dramatically higher performance and more efficient enterprise-class storage earlier this year, Nimbus has achieved wide acclaim, earning gold from Tech Awards Circle for Best Midrange Storage Hardware. eWeek also chose Nimbus as one of 17 Promising Storage Companies. Mark Peters of Enterprise Strategy Group praised Nimbus' approach for "addressing underlying causes rather than merely ameliorating symptoms." Nimbus' system-level approach and enterprise application of flash technology has been called "another nail in the coffin of the traditional hard drive."

Nimbus' S-class flash storage systems leverage the incredible speed, efficiency, and comprehensive software of NAND flash technology and Nimbus' HALO operating system to deliver up to 24x greater storage performance and 90 percent lower energy usage than traditional disk-based arrays. Service providers building public and private cloud computing services, such as VMs and on-demand storage, can now do so with a flash-based platform that offers both high capacity and 90% lower energy, cooling, and rackspace costs than traditional 15K rpm disk arrays. Nimbus HALO software also provides snapshots, replication, thin provisioning, deduplication, and multi-protocol SAN and NAS functionality out of the box for complete enterprise storage management.

SNW is the world's largest conference focused on managing information infrastructure. Offering more than 120 educational sessions and presentations by top IT management experts, SNW provides attendees with an opportunity to gain reliable, firsthand practical knowledge from leading product and service providers and key industry influencers.
