NetEx HyperIP Increases Data Domain Replication Performance

NetEx, in WAN optimization software,announced that its HyperIP was successfully tested with a Data Domain replication application during a proof of concept at a major hotel chain, resulting in a 3x – 7x performance enhancement over Data Domain’s native performance over distance. The Data Domain traffic was de-duped prior to data being optimized by HyperIP.  The testing further validates the viability of using HyperIP with other industry-leading backup, data replication and recovery applications to deliver complete storage solutions that provide even greater value for customers.

NetEx qualifies leading storage system vendor applications to produce proven WAN optimization software solutions that help customers replicate data over distance without the packet loss performance issues or latency effects found in many applications that utilize TCP transport technologies.

“Companies implementing data reduction technologies as their sole optimization product are selling themselves short by not fully leveraging other available solutions to gain even more value from their existing IT infrastructures,” said Robert MacIntyre, NetEx Vice President of Business Development and Marketing. “NetEx has proven time and again that its ability to transfer vast amounts of business-critical data over common Ethernet and TCP/IP networks seamlessly with best-in-class storage products brings an even greater value proposition to customers.  With so many people jumping on the data de-duplication bandwagon to reduce utilization of their storage resources, they owe it to themselves to invest in a complementary technology like HyperIP to gain even more performance than previously thought.”

HyperIP is award-winning disaster recovery WAN optimization software for backup, recovery and data replication applications. NetEx recently released HyperIP for VMware, WAN optimization software that enhances replication application performance for virtualized infrastructures. HyperIP for VMware supports data transfer rates from 1.5 Mb/s to 800 Mb/s, which provides growth and scalability for customers without the need to replace hardware. The software is available to qualified resellers, customers and prospects and can be downloaded free of charge.

In addition to working with the Data Domain replication server, other storage products and protocols that HyperIP has been qualified with include replication solutions from EMC, VMware,  EqualLogic,  FalconStor, DataCore, NetApp, Veeam and many others.
