Vello Systems Introduces Industry’s Lowest Latency, Highest Density, Multi-Service 10G Solution

Posted by Jaymie Scotto on December 14th, 2010

Vello Systems, a leader in high performance cloud infrastructure solutions, announces the introduction and availability of its ultra-low latency, high-density, 10G CX50T service card.

As applications increasingly migrate to the Cloud, and new cloud-based applications and services emerge, network latency, or rather the delay incurred by the network itself, is a growing concern.  Especially in high-frequency trading or algorithmic trading environments, or in distributed storage environments, network latency is a prime concern. Vello Systems understands this brings a serious need. In these cases, reducing network latency by microseconds or even nanoseconds has significant impact on transaction velocity and business processes and transaction velocity. The new CX50T service card delivers sub-5 nanosecond performance at 10G speeds and is purpose-built for these environments.

Designed for the company’s CX FamilyTMof cloud infrastructure systems, the CX50T operates in either the 16-slot CX16000 system or the 5-slot CX4000 system providing the industry’s lowest latency 10G networking performance combined with the highest 10G densities. The CX50T is optimized for intra-metro applications and is part of Vello Systems growing solutions portfolio for intra- and inter-metro low-latency networking.

The full announcement can be found below and for more information please visit www.vellosystems.com.

Vello Systems Introduces Industry’s Lowest Latency, Highest Density, Multi-service 10G Solution

New sub-5 nanosecond CX Family service card raises bar for 10G performance and density; purpose-built for latency-sensitive financial computing and distributed storage applications

MENLO PARK, CA, December 14, 2010 –Vello Systems, a leader in high performance cloud infrastructure solutions, announces the introduction and availability of its ultra-low latency, high-density, 10G CX50T service card. Designed for the company’s CX FamilyTMof cloud infrastructure systems, the CX50T operates in either the 16-slot CX16000 system or the 5-slot CX4000 system providing the industry’s lowest latency 10G networking performance combined with the highest 10G densities.

In these cases, reducing network latency by microseconds or even nanoseconds has significant impact on transaction velocity and business processes and transaction velocity. The new CX50T service card delivers sub-5 nanosecond performance at 10G speeds and is purpose-built for these environments.

Equipped with five (5) pluggable multi-service 10G client-side interfaces, the CX50T is engineered for pay-as-you-grow operation and maximum flexibility. Each client interface is software programmable via the VellOSTMoperating system for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel, or SONET/SDH, ensuring maximum usability and investment protection. This flexibility benefits in particular customers seeking a high-performance future-proof path for their Fiber Channel-based storage resources as they migrate to Ethernet.

“Cloud computing and cloud-based services are placing significantly greater demands on network infrastructure, not only for capacity, but also for a higher level of responsiveness,” said Rick Talbot, senior analyst, optical infrastructure at Current Analysis. “Vello Systems’ new CX50T addresses the economic, space and low-latency requirements for 10G services that are likely to be the mainstay for connections within service providers’ and enterprises’ cloud infrastructures.”

The CX50T service card is fully-manageable along with all other CX Family service cards and accessories through the Vello Systems’ CloudMasterTMmanagement and provisioning system. CloudMaster provides an easy-to-use GUI-based system to control and monitor all system elements. CloudMaster also serves as the primary interface to higher layer network and IT systems via northbound programmatic interfaces including SNMP and XML.

“The new 10G performance and density benchmarks established by the CX50T represent significant industry achievements,” said Karl May, Vello Systems President and CEO. “These achievements translate directly into new networking capabilities and a greater competitive edge for our service provider and enterprise customers.”

ancotel  Group Founds New Telehouse at 1025 Old Country Road, Long Island, New York

Facility to be developed into a key interconnection hub for connectivity between North America and Europe

 

Westbury, NY U.S.A. - June 30, 2010 – Frankfurt-based ancotel GmbH, operators of the largest and most important telecommunications and data network hub in Europe, announces today that it has acquired LIDARC (“Long Island Data and Recovery Center”), a Long Island-based colocation and interconnection facility located at 1025 Old Country Road (‘1025 OCR’), Westbury, NY.  This acquisition marks ancotel’s first foray into the United States’ data center and colocation market.  The company will leverage Long Island’s telecommunications infrastructure to provide invaluable communication opportunities throughout the Long Island and New York metro area to become the preferred gateway to Europe’s number one telehouse. 

Long Island serves as a key landing point for submarine cables that connect North America to Europe.  Until recently, network infrastructure has often bypassed Long Island to traverse into and through Manhattan. Jason Schafer, Senior Analyst Datacenters for Tier1 Research comments, “Downtown Manhattan has been facing datacenter, power, and real-estate capacity constraints, which is pushing business outwards from downtown to areas such as northern NJ and Long Island.”  In addition, many companies today require diverse routing around New York City as well as lower latency connectivity for critical communications and financial trading applications between Europe, South America and Asia. 

“ancotel is known as one of the most successful companies for telehousing and interconnection services in the world,” states John Reynolds, Managing Director of ancotel USA and former Managing Director of LIDARC.  “The company is committed to its investment on Long Island.  They have plans to transform this facility into a critical meet-me-point for companies, cable operators, carriers, service providers and international companies. This will create jobs in the area and attract an array of industries, such as health care, financial, media and content providers, to Nassau County.  We believe that this facility will be the spark that lights the flame of economic development on Long Island.”

Geography plays an important role in today’s communications age.  With more companies requiring global direct connectivity for voice, data and video traffic, proximity to service providers and applications are increasingly significant.   Data center facilities have become a key ingredient in the success of global enterprise businesses IT infrastructure.   Until ancotel USA’s telehouse opening, Long Island’s data center and colocation market has been overlooked for other geographic locations.  This is why ancotel is committed to establish 1025 Old Country Road in Westbury, NY as the preferred gateway to Europe’s number one telehouse.

“We have been looking at the U.S. data center market for quite some time now,” comments K.-J. Orth, Managing Director of ancotel GmbH and Chief Marketing Officer of ancotel USA, LLC.  “With this acquisition, our proven expertise will enable this facility, located in the most eastern point in the United States, to offer direct interconnectivity to and between trans-Atlantic, Caribbean and Latin American submarine cable systems as well as leading nationwide and global network operators. As a result, ancotel USA will usher in a new dimension of global network interconnection capabilities.”

ancotel will unveil its plans for its colocation and interconnection facility at 1025 Old Country Road, Westbury, New York on Thursday, July 1, 2010 at 10:00am EDT at a press conference on-site.  To access the press conference virtually, please click here or go to http://www.jaymiescotto.com/ancotel.php.  For more information about ancotel, please visit www.ancotel.com.  For information about the press conference and to attend in person or virtually, please contact pr@jaymiescotto.com.

It controls the CPU resources to ensure that each account on a shared server is allocated enough resources to run efficiently without jeopardizing the other tenants on that server, making the server more stable and delivering better performance.

With LVE, CloudLinux can deliver performance, reliability and operational benefits for hosting providers like CH-Center including:

  • Increased density and capability per server without increasing risk

  • More efficient and stable servers

  • Reduced impact of unpredictable events like load spikes that can take down or slow down a server

  • Reduced operational costs related to hardware, electricity, datacenter space and management costs

  • Better utilization of existing infrastructure

CH-Center Hosting provides a diverse set of service offerings for the different needs of its customer. With CloudLinux, they will deliver:

  • Increased uptime since no one account can slow down or take down an entire shared server
  • Better reliability and performance with a server that is running at peak operating capacity
  • Compatibility with all major control panels for easy management
  • Protection from hackers and poorly written scripts that drain resources, cause outages and impact productivity

“CH-Center will be able to provide a unique solution for their customers and benefit from the reliability and performance CloudLinux can deliver,” states Igor Seletskiy, Cloud Linux Founder and CEO. “Service providers can achieve higher density and increased stability with our proven technology which ultimately provides a higher level of service and support to their clients.”

With LVE, hosting providers like CH-Center now have the tools to control the CPU and I/O demands of individual tenants, so that a single site cannot slow or take down a whole server and provide customers with the easy management and solid solutions they need to stay ahead in business.

CloudLinux is priced to support all types of hosting providers. For shared hosting providers, CloudLinux is available at a tiered retail monthly price based on the number of servers under management. The CloudLinux Partner Program offers discounts and more competitive pricing and a support model designed to meet the specific requirements of hosting companies as well as an opportunity to leverage the CloudLinux brand.

VP of Marketing, Cloud Linux

CloudLinuxWe are thrilled to receive notification that CloudLinux has been named as a finalist in the 2010 Cloud Computing World Series Awards. Cloud Linux is featured in the ‘Best Start-Up’ category, which recognizes companies that were founded after January 2009 and provide a cloud-based product or service in the cloud computing and Software as a Service (SaaS) market. We are really jazzed to show off the nominee icon on our home page!

We knew our novel approach to application and tenant level virtualization was a hit, but now others recognize the benefits as well. The word is out to hosting providers and cloud computing organizations who can see how CloudLinux can increase performance as compared to other solutions available on the market.

Winners of the Cloud Computing World Series Awards will be announced on June 29th at an award ceremony to be held at the Olympia Conference Center in London as part of the Cloud Computing World Forum. The conference offers a comprehensive view of the most complete and innovative platforms across the global cloud computing and SaaS industry.

We are honored to be part of the event and we will keep our fingers crossed!
