IceWEB Announces Order From Ardent Management Consulting

IceWEB, Inc. announced that Ardent Management Consulting has been awarded a contract to deploy IceWEB to power the image processing workflow that is core to federal customers mapping and geographic information system (GIS) services.

Using the IceWEB 3000, featuring its Unified Storage Management operating system, Ardent can now consolidate imagery onto a single, high performance, highly scalable, shared pool of storage, increasing image processing speeds.

"Ardent’s Federal clients demand geospatial solutions that provide rapid delivery to meet their mission goals," said Michael Matechak, Vice President, ArdentMC. "Our firm has built strong relationships with our clients by remaining objective in the selection of supporting tools and systems to match requirements. The superior image processing speeds, storage capacity, and lower cost comparison to competitors, made the selection of IceWEB an easy decision to meet the goals of the operating system."

"Prior to deploying IceWEB’s unified storage platform, the performance and scalability demands of our unique customer needs overwhelmed traditional storage systems, limiting GIS processing performance and workflow productivity. ArdentMC needed a high performance storage scalable for an Enterprise-wide solution for a Federal Customer, while reducing the unnecessary storage management burden," concluded Michael Matechak.

IceWEB’s solution includes a 56TB 3000HC Unified Storage platform pre-loaded with i-Cubed 1m eSAT dataset prefused into a Google- Earth Enterprise Globe.

"Demand for geospatial solutions is reaching new heights, creating exciting business opportunities for innovative Small Business companies like ArdentMC," stated John R. Signorello, IceWEB CEO. "We look forward to continuing to provide solutions to this exciting vertical market and building on the momentum from our existing relationship with our Google Earth Enterprise partners that were announced in April."
