Atlantis Computing to showcase server workload solutions at VMworld

MOUNTAIN VIEW, USA: Atlantis Computing, the award-winning leader in Software-Defined Storage for VDI, today announced that it will demonstrate a tech preview of its revolutionary new solution for cloud-scale deployments of virtual servers such as databases, collaboration and mail servers for the first time ever this week in booth #941 at VMworld.

The company will also feature Atlantis ILIO Persistent VDI 4.1 and its other desktop optimization solutions that power the largest and most successful VDI deployments in the world.

Atlantis Computing solves the challenges of virtual workloads: storage costs, performance, scale, and deployment risks. The Atlantis ILIO software complements VDI solutions to cut VDI costs and to deliver a desktop that is faster and cheaper than a PC. Atlantis ILIO solutions are flexible, and de-risk the implementation and management of any VDI or virtualized XenApp project with automation for deployment, configuration, provisioning, high-availability, and disaster recovery.

VMworld attendees can meet Brian Madden, Gabe Knuth and Jack Madden and get free signed copies of their recently released book "The New VDI Reality: How the Biggest Barriers to VDI Adoption Have Finally Been Solved and What This Means for the Future of the Enterprise Desktop."

Attendees will also be able to pick up a seven-day test drive of Atlantis Computing's virtual desktops to see how fast VDI can run in their own environments, and ask onsite experts anything about de-risking their VDI deployments or optimizing storage for VDI or server workloads.

Theater presentations will be given by Atlantis Computing's Toby Coleridge, Seth Knox, Josh Petty, Chetan Venkatesh; Cisco's Tony Banuelos, Jay Chokshi and Tony Paikeday; HP's Peter Brey; IBM's Jonathan Goldstine; LogIn VSI's Jeroen van de Kamp; MTM Technologies' Pete Madsen; Northrim Bank's Erick Stoeckle; Nvidia's Milan Diebel; Teradici's Olivier Favre; Violin's Vinay Gaonkar; Virident's Zia Rehman; and World Wide Technologies' Andrew Ridner. For the full speaker schedule, please visit booth #941.

Atlantis Computing is poised to transform the economics of storage in virtualized environments with its support for any virtualized workload in the data center. Atlantis ILIO removes the application performance bottlenecks of any Software-Defined Storage implementation. It delivers an abstraction layer that dissociates application performance from the class and location of storage used, while providing increased flexibility on how storage capacity is consumed.

Conventional implementations require large amounts of dedicated high performance, low latency storage. When deployed with Atlantis ILIO, VMs consume less storage, run faster and can now use shared low-latency storage that can be located anywhere. Atlantis ILIO delivers:

Maximum flexibility - delivering dramatic capacity and performance benefits to any virtualized workloads using any class of storage in any location -- local, remote, cloud -- transforming how storage is consumed by applications.

Linear scalability - removing the traditional trade-off in enterprise storage of optimizing for capacity or performance. Atlantis ILIO delivers both capacity and performance simultaneously through its unique "In-Memory, Scale-Out Architecture," reducing CapEx by up to 90% and improving performance by up to 10x.

Reduced risk - automated deployment, configuration, storage sizing and provisioning eliminates human errors and reduce the risk associated with any implementation. In addition architectures are simpler, storage networking is dramatically reduced and deploying and maintaining thousands of desktops is now manageable. Install, set and forget, all while enjoying ongoing capacity consolidation and performance acceleration of Software-Defined Storage.

"Atlantis has established the undisputed leadership position in Software-Defined Storage for VDI and virtualized XenApp workloads. With well over 300 customers in production, including deployments up to 100,000 seats, the Atlantis ILIO solution has proven itself in many mission critical implementations where reliability, availability and the ability to scale without increasing risks was paramount," said Bernard Harguindeguy, president and CEO of Atlantis Computing. "We are excited to extend these solutions to all server workloads in the data center and to provide a tech preview at VMworld."
