NetEx HyperIP Data Transport now available as managed service for solution providers

Enables partners to offer end users one-time or recurring data migration, replication

MINNEAPOLIS, MN – Dec. 23, 2008 [PR2WEB] – NetEx, the leader in high speed data transport over TCP, today announced it will offer its Data Transport acceleration technology to solution provider partners as a managed service for one-time data migration projects or recurring replication.

The award-winning HyperIP® Data Transport optimization solutions are a powerful and affordable method of application acceleration for remote data replication and large file transfer requirements. Whether using Virtual HyperIP software or the HyperIP appliance, solution providers who wish to take advantage of HyperIP as a revenue-generating service can now offer their customers the ability to move or replicate vast amounts of critical information using their common Ethernet and TCP/IP networks. Managed HyperIP is completely transparent to the application and requires no end user intervention.

“Solution providers are increasingly challenged to deliver value to their customers, and during a time when end users may not have the budget for forklift upgrades, our partners are looking to services as a way to sustain their business,” said Robert MacIntyre, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at NetEx. “HyperIP as a managed service offering will be welcomed by our partners since it eliminates hardware investment, eliminates wasted time, and never compromises data security.”

With HyperIP, solution providers get an award-winning business continuity and disaster recovery optimization solution for backup, recovery and data replication applications. Patent-pending technology accelerates and optimizes industry-leading data replication and file transfer applications by aggregating multiple data replication applications over a shared connection while mitigating the inherent network latency and network disruption for long-distance remote TCP data transmissions. HyperIP supports long-distance data transfers at up to 800 Mb/s, the highest performance of any optimization appliance on the market, and 25 to more than 100 percent faster than competitive products. Transfer speed is optimized for the full range of data management applications, including backup & remote replication and business continuance/disaster recovery (BC/DR).

New Solution Enables High-End Data Transport Optimization for Short Term Migration, Replication Projects

New Solution Enables High-End Data Transport Optimization for Short Term Migration, Replication Projects

MINNEAPOLIS, MN – December 1, 2008 [PR2WEB] – NetEx, the leader in high speed data transport over TCP, today announced an innovative appliance rental program, enabling IT managers to acquire market-leading Data Transport acceleration technology for short-term, large-scale data migration projects while minimizing their capital outlay during a period of economic challenges.

NetEx is making its award-winning HyperIP® Data Transport optimizations appliances available for rental, providing enterprises with a powerful and affordable method of application acceleration for remote data replication and large file transfer requirements. With the HyperIP rental option, customers facing short-term needs to move or replicate vast amounts of critical information using their common Ethernet and TCP/IP networks can leverage HyperIP’s patent-pending acceleration and optimization technology to ensure that they make the most effective use of their wide area network (WAN) bandwidth and meet their production time windows.

“In the current economic climate IT budgets are being stretched to the point where they are impacting business operations by precluding companies from acquiring desperately-needed technology,” said Robert MacIntyre, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at NetEx. “Offering HyperIP appliances on a rental basis is an innovative solution to help IT operations meet their technology commitments during the economic downturn.”

HyperIP is NetEx’s award-winning business continuity and disaster recovery optimization solution for backup, recovery and data replication applications. It provides unmatched performance for moving TCP data efficiently using patent-pending technology that accelerates and optimizes the industry-leading data replication and file transfer applications by aggregating multiple data replication applications over a shared connection while mitigating the inherent network latency and network disruption for long-distance remote TCP/IP data transmissions. HyperIP line-optimization appliances support long-distance data transfers at up to 622 Mb/s, the highest performance of any optimization appliance on the market, and 25 to more than 100 percent faster than competitive products. Transfer speed is optimized for the full range of data management applications, including backup & remote replication and business continuance/disaster recovery (BC/DR).

HyperIP is available in a variety of scalable configurations, based upon bandwidth required with data rates ranging from 1 Mb/s up to 622 Mb/s. Competitive vendors lack the wide scalability of the HyperIP platform because of hardware-limited data rate designs. To improve the data rate performance beyond the hardware-enforced limits, customers need to perform a forklift upgrade and install entire new systems, both at the local data center and remote site, wasting time and the initial hardware investment. NetEx eliminates these problems with the scalable software design at the core of HyperIP.

For rental terms and pricing options for the HyperIP rental solution contact NetEx via their website or main number listed below.

Web 2.0 Applications and Services Driving Demand for High Speed Data Transport Optimization

2008-12-01T12:09:00Z

Web 2.0 Applications and Services Driving Demand for High Speed Data Transport Optimization

Data Transport Optimization becomes a must have technology

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – November 24, 2008 [PR2WEB] – The rapid acceptance of Web 2.0 applications and services has provided a dramatic boost in demand for WAN acceleration technology, according to NetEx, the leader in high-speed data transport over TCP.

HyperIP enables the rapid sharing of collaborative files and software-as-a-service architectures to remote users. Without acceleration these new applications would be burdened by the inherent performance bottlenecks in TCP data transmission and bringing WAN-based applications to a crawl. According to the Enterprise Strategy Group, the millions of users of social networking sites such as Myspace and Facebook and the massive bandwidth consumption of the video-sharing site YouTube are rapidly changing data transport optimization technology from a “nice to have” to a “must-have” technology. With the large amounts of rich media content data being shared across the Internet and the user expectation for instant response data transport optimization products such as NetEx’s award-winning HyperIP are hot technologies right now.

“The explosion of Web 2.0 deployments and social networking sites are creating unprecedented demand for bandwidth and the only way to economically satisfy that demand is with a solution like HyperIP that compresses, optimizes and accelerates data transport across TCP,” said Robert MacIntyre, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at NetEx. “HyperIP changes the economics of transferring massive data volumes across IP networks, enabling customers to send more data and send it faster than with a basic IP WAN.”

HyperIP mitigates TCP performance issues that are common when moving data over WAN connections because of bandwidth restrictions, latency due to distance and/or router hop counts, packet loss and network errors with application acceleration and Data Transport Optimization for remote data replication and large file transfer requirements. HyperIP eliminates these issues with an innovative software design developed specifically to accelerate traffic over an IP based network. HyperIP applies proprietary optimization algorithms and then compresses the data to improve WAN efficiency. HyperIP also includes Data Replication Optimization (DRO™) and Data Migration Optimization (DMO™) providing customers the confidence that their valuable information will be protected (or moved) on-time, every time. HyperIP boosts the performance of storage replication applications from vendors such as EMC, NetApp, Symantec, IBM, Data Domain, and FalconStor.
