SAN BRUNO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 24, 2016) - Reduxio Systems (Reduxio) today announced it was named the silver winner for Storage magazine's and SearchStorage.com's 2015 Products of the Year Award in the disk and hybrid system category.
Reduxio's BackDating™ technology, which obsoletes snapshots and continuously protects data, impressed SearchStorage.com judges. One judge said, "Reduxio was innovative for its use of metadata in a block storage system that supports infinite snaps and intelligent tiering." A second judge also described Reduxio HX550 as, "a clever hybrid array that combines brilliant data protection with data reduction, granular storage tiering and automated consistency."
BackDating, combined with Reduxio's flash-first architecture, enabled by the Tier-X™ tiering engine and the NoDup™ inline global dedupe and compression, makes the HX550 the most cost-effective flash storage solution for enterprise applications.
"Enterprise storage users are forced to deploy separate systems for performance and advanced data protection capabilities," said Mark Weiner, CEO and co-founder of Reduxio. "By delivering exceptional performance and instant data recovery to the second in a single package, Reduxio is truly paving the way in reducing storage complexity. We're pleased to see our unique technology recognized as a product of the year."
"We are very impressed with the product," said Michael Scarpelli, IT director at La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology. "The interface is very well designed and intuitive. The data reduction is amazing, and it is running nice and fast. The icing on the cake is definitely the up-to-the-second restoration using BackDating."
Kerry Dolan, senior lab analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group, Inc. also noted, "ESG Lab was impressed with the Reduxio HX550. With the key features -- Backdating, Tier-X continuous tiering, and NoDup capacity reduction -- it's like having space-efficient, continuous data protection and instant restore without the complexity and overhead. To restore, you just roll back to a point in time at one-second granularity, so hosts and volumes are always consistent. Reduxio eliminates the need to manage snapshots -- a unique capability in today's flash array market. The HX550 also delivers the low latency and high IOPS expected of a hybrid flash array, so customers get performance, efficiency, and simplicity, enabling them to save time and money."
All winners were judged by a panel comprised of a cross-section of users, analysts, consultants and Storage magazine and SearchStorage.com editors. The products are rated according to their innovation, performance, ease of integration, ease of use, functionality and value.
