Scalable Informatics JackRabbit based systems continue to dominate spinning disk competition in raw and end user acheivable performance. Testing using commonly available load generators indicates significant performance advantages to this platform. RAID6 is used on all platforms unless otherwise noted.
Tests conducted in August 2011 of current model JackRabbit JR5 machines in lab prior to customer shipment have demostrated sustained 5.1+ GB/s streaming read and 4.1GB/s write for 200GB sized files. These results are significantly better than many competitors storage clusters, never mind their individual units, They have taken to expressing their performance in terms of "theoretical" results, or guestimates of best case results. We've measured, we know what our units are capable of.
These units are available immediately, and are in use globally at hedge funds, financial services groups, pre/post and rendering companies, life sciences organizations, scientific computing groups, and related big-data storage and computing problem locations. Please contact us for information on where you can obtain these units.
