Company Information

agámi Systems is the leading provider of unified network storage solutions with integrated live file system replication. The agámi Information Server (AIS) provides dramatic benefits in performance, capacity density, power, cooling and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). AIS is the first network attached storage (NAS) solution to break the GB/second performance barrier1 and delivers 4-6x higher performance, 5x better space density, and 50% lower power & cooling demands.

IT managers throughout the world are embracing the advent of commodity based 64-bit processor technology, in both single processor and multi-way processor systems. With this new technology, IT personnel are reaping the benefits of lower cost, higher performance and perhaps most importantly today – dramatically better power and cooling efficiency. While this technology has been available in general-purpose servers for several years, the use of these processors in storage systems is still novel.

The core design of AIS is fundamental to its performance throughput advantage. While 64-bit processing has been deployed within the world’s largest corporations for years, agámi Systems is the first to leverage the quad 64-bit AMD Opteron™ processors with direct connect and HyperTransport™ I/O link technologies. Through the agámiOS™, traditional bottlenecks between CPUs, disks and network interfaces are eliminated by extending the HyperTransport I/O link to the disk and network controllers.

With agámiFSR™, the only integrated real-time file system replication; agámi provides built in disaster recovery, true high-availability failover solutions, and provides significantly greater throughput, network efficiency and reliability of the file system replication processes versus today’s block-based backup solutions. Only the modified bytes are sent over the LAN or WAN to the secondary or replica AIS. The resulting network efficiency can be one hundred times greater than today’s block-based replication solutions.

AIS delivers breakthrough performance, simplified management and unprecedented cost savings for geographically distributed business-critical applications. By unlocking the bottlenecks in NAS performance, AIS enables fast, efficient storage for large-scale file and database applications. agámi Systems solutions integrate seamlessly into customers existing infrastructure and applications, and are compatible with the leading enterprise storage management software products. Only agámi Information Servers deliver the most cost-effective way for enterprises to safely share and protect information from remote locations.
