Acopia Networks Adaptive Resource Switch (ARX) technology was designed to provide a highly scalable file virtualisation service across enterprise file storage resources. The ARX was purpose built to optimise both storage performance and intelligence, enabling the ARX to drive very high throughput with scalable, policy base data management.
Acopia ARX patented switching architecture has dedicated memory and processing resources for three independent functions - packet processing, virtualistion policy, and system management. Using an unique architecture, it ensures that each processing plane (data path, control path, and management path) is able to handle the most demanding of loads without impact to other functions of the system. This means that a single high end ARX6000 Switch is able to scale up to 2.6gbps of sustained throughput, without introducing significant latency.
The ARX high performance architecture is distinct from PC based architectures in which each of these functions competes for shared resources and can individually overwhelm the system. As a result, the Acopia ARX can virtualise existing high end NAS systems and actually increase the aggregate throughput and performance of the virtualised NAS systems.
Acopia ARX provides the innovative file Virtualisation technology to address many of the problems associated with managing the growing volume of file data and increasing number of file servers / NAS devices in the enterprise today.
