Sun Storage 7000 for providers

Thursday, January 29. 2009

The Canadian provider iWeb writes in his blog:

iWeb just acquired the Sun Storage 7410 Unified Storage System to fulfill its needs in large volume storage. To be specific, it will be used to support the email system in shared hosting, instead of the previous data servers NetApp F740 and F820.

Nice to see the first companies to announce their acquisition of Sun Storage 7000 series systems.

Actually we're a Canadian hosting provider located in Quebec. A big part of our customers are in the US though. We will post a more in-depth review of the 7410 in a few weeks after we had it in production for a while.

Thanks!

We're a French hosting company and we might use Sun Storage 7410C for dedicated hosting (NFS) and virtual hosting (iSCSI for xVM Server).

The traditional NAS for hosting is NetApp but Sun can change that with the 7000 series.

Within the Sun Startup Essentials program, Sun Storage 7000 is at a very great pricing.

I´ve changed the Canada/US thing. I´m looking forward to hear about your experiences with the system

Of course, changing of 6-8 years old, EOL (life) and EOS (support), NetApp storages by new one from Sun is a great deal. But what's about new NetApp storages, huh?

Hey, this is just the same as with all this Sun to Linux migrations

Substituing a E250 with a Opteronbased Linuxsystem is such a great deal
