Intelligent Storage

ISE Station X is a preconfigured, datacenter rack solution utilizing a combination of 10 ISE storage systems. The ISE storage system is an easy to use, high performance Fibre Channel storage array leveraging the industry’s best SAS SSDs and HDDs. Now available in a scaled package, ISE System X provides enterprise-class performance and reliability with self-healing capabilities. ISE Station X is an excellent solution for Microsoft’s SQL Server, Hyper-V, SharePoint or Exchange, Oracle Database, VMware’s vSphere, Citrix’s XenServer or other database and virtualization solutions.

Solving the Data Storage Dilemma

With more demand for reductions in power, cooling and floor space in current and future datacenters, it is important to have a storage solution that can deliver to these requirements and still be able to scale to the performance and capacity requirements that enable greater degrees of productivity and profitability. With ISE Station X the total cost of ownership (TCO) is greatly reduced over 5 years due to ISE Storage Blades’ zero-touch maintenance, self-healing disk technology, simplified management, and 5-year no-cost hardware warranty.

Unmatched TCO

ISE storage systems provide high performance throughout their complete lifecycle due to the way they handle vibration, heat dissipation, data placement, and drive reliability. Additionally, the disk drives within ISE storage systems are not treated as individual and disposable components, but rather as a large, self-healing drive. When aggregating the potential of each ISE Storage Blade in a dense package like ISE Station X, enterprise datacenters can realize huge performance and capacity advantages in a small package. ISE Station X can provide up to 288 TB of the industry’s fastest HDD performance or over half a million IOPS with Hyper ISE enabled package…all in 30 rack units (3U x 10 ISEs).

Because ISE storage systems reach reliability levels impossible for standard drives and enclosures, providing more than 100 times the reliability of a regular disk drive enclosed in a typical storage drive bay— ISE Station X significantly reduces service events and their impact on IT organizations. Combine this highly reliable solution with native and simple to use web-based management, resulting in Xcelerated ROI.

High Performance Storage

Designed to manage multiple, simultaneous streaming and random I/O patterns with advanced scheduling algorithms and adaptive queue prioritization, the ISE is a perfect fit for applications that require low-latency, high-performance results for the lifetime of the ISE. Whether it is for high throughput data warehouse applications using ISE-2 HDD-based solutions or highly transactional OLTP application using the SSD hybrid Hyper ISE solution, ISE Station X, which comes in 4 configurations, will allow administrators to meet their performance objectives. For example, the ISE Station X 5H has plenty of Hyper ISE capacity for high demand databases and temporary database workspaces, as well as ISE-2 HDD capacity for the sequential, low-latency log writes.

A Winning Storage Solution

Recognized at Microsoft TechEd 2012, the all HDD ISE Station X enabled the industry’s fastest Windows Server 2012 performance over SMB 3.0, reaching up to 16 GB/s with 125,000+ IOPs.
