Founded in 1988, DataDirect Networks is a leading, global supplier of storage systems specifically designed for large capacity and high bandwidth applications. Our products address complex storage system challenges faced in Internet content hosting, data backup, computer modeling and simulation, tape replacement, and the production and distribution of film and video. Our Silicon Storage Architecture (S2A) has been uniquely designed to help organizations reliably store and process the rapid growth in large data files they are experiencing, while reducing the capital costs, operating expenses, and administration overhead of the storage network.

S2A Storage Systems accelerate content delivery, enable real-time collaborative workflows, and shorten design and operating cycle times. They are commonly deployed in a range of application environments, including video and film production, computer modeling and simulation, data backup and archiving, cluster and supercomputing. The data patterns these applications create and process contain much larger file sizes that must be rapidly transferred and processed, in addition to being stored

ExaGrid is a cost effective and scalable disk-based backup solution that works with your existing backup application. ExaGrid combines high quality SATA drives, compression and data reduction for fast and reliable backups and restores. ExaGrid's innovative approach minimizes the amount of data to be stored by providing standard data compression for the most recent backups, along with byte-level delta data reduction for all previous backups. ExaGrid's byte-level delta data reduction technology stores changes from backup to backup instead of storing full file copies. This unique approach reduces the disk space required by at least 20 to 1, delivering unparalleled cost savings and performance at 30% the cost of standard SATA drives.

Back in 1999, Nexsan introduced the first ATA based RAID storage into the IT marketplace. At that time, the rest of the storage industry stated with confidence that Nexsan was doomed as a company, and ATA disks could not be used effectively in a RAID system. By 2003, every major supplier in the storage industry was offering ATA based RAID systems. Nexsan currently ships more disk than any storage provider, and continues to be a pioneer in the storage industry with leading edge products, like the Assureon line of compliance based DLM storage. Nexsan truly offers fantastic price / performance with their entire product line.
