About Us
Nimbus Data Systems, Inc. develops Unified Storage systems and software that dramatically simplify storage management, lower operating costs, and improve IT availability. Nimbus Unified Storage is the premier storage infrastructure for server and desktop virtualization, rich content, cloud computing, storage consolidation, and high-performance computing. To date, over 15,000 companies in 28 countries have implemented Nimbus technology.
A History of Innovation
Since 2003, Nimbus has been at the forefront of IP storage. Nimbus was first to ship a 10 GbE-based storage system in 2006, first to incorporate solid-state drive technology in IP storage in 2008, and first to deliver policy-based caching typical of mainframe systems on modular IP storage. Now offering a 5th-generation systems family and release 5 of our powerful yet easy-to-use HALO storage operating system, Nimbus is the gold standard in Unified Storage for enterprises, datacenters, and small and midsize businesses alike.
Nimbus Unified Storage systems feature:
- All-inclusive software at no cost, eliminating licensing fees and making IT easier
- FlexScale technology for seamless storage tiers in one system (SATA, SAS, SSD)
- Multi-protocol iSCSI, NFS, and CIFS support for simultaneous block and file storage
- 10 Gigabit Ethernet architecture for superior performance and greater consolidation
- Common software and hardware across the line for long-term investment protection
- Policy-based caching for 85% greater IO performance than alternate designs
- Non-disruptive expansion with 70% lower power usage than competing products
- Easy-to-use software to simplify storage management and improve service levels
- Built-in snapshots, cloning, synchronous mirroring, and remote replication
- Advanced monitoring and early-warning technology to ensure non-stop reliability
- High-availability design with redundant controllers, power, cooling, and OS images
The Market
According to the research firm Gartner, IP storage is expected to be a $2.7 billion market by 2010. The 10 Gigabit Ethernet market will reach $4 billion by 2010 according to Dell 'Oro Group. A survey by Enterprise Strategy Group found that 76% of IT departments will implement virtualization solutions that depend on scalable shared storage. Nimbus Unified Storage lies at the heart of these exciting and rapidly growing markets.
