Key Benefits
NextIO Key Features
  • Less cables, adapters and less switches makes I/O infrastructure management easier
  • Reducing components and touch points makes routine data centre management tasks less time consuming
  • Built-in scalability lets you add I/O resource modules and additional bandwidth as needed
  • Set QoS parameters for guaranteed levels of bandwidth to applications
  • CapEx costs may be reduced up to 40% as a result of less components
  • OpEx costs may be lowered by up to 60% as a result of centralised remote management. Eliminating I/O devices, cables and leaf switches reduces energy consumption and costs.

Rack-level IO Consolidation & Virtualisation Solutions That Maximise Performance, Productivity & Efficiencies of Complex Server I/O

 
vNET I/O Maestro
The modern data centre is an extremely complex environment to manage. Multiple fabrics including Ethernet, Fibre Channel and SAS are demanded by multiple networks such as LAN and SAN and are often managed by different teams. The deployment of new technologies such as 10GbE, FCoE, server blades, virtualization, and cloud computing at to this complexity. On top of this are the SLAs, QoS agreements, reduced budgets amongst other business demands.
Originally created with a vision of creating shared server I/O resource pools, today NextIO simplifies complex server I/O and enables any-to-any connectivity among a wide variety of data centre resources. NextIO's architecture consolidates server I/O at the top of the rack, enabling it to be shared and dynamically allocated across servers within the rack.
NextIO Provides Solutions That:
  • Optimise rack server and I/O density
  • Lower acquisition costs and management overhead resulting in significantly reduced OpEx and CapEx
  • Offer choice in server configurations without vendor lock-in
  • Reduce complexity in multi-fabric data centres
  • Provide on-demand I/O resources that increases I/O flexibility in VMware environments
