My questions about ICEStorm being "license ready" may have just been answered!!

From a data services perspective the IceSTORM is surprisingly ready to compete with the major name brand providers of unified storage. It has the ability to pool and tier storage based on drive type; for example, logs can be placed on SSD, databases on high performance SAS and file shares on SATA. The SSD tier can also be used as a cache, so that active data will automatically be served from solid state. And, the system provides extensive data protection capabilities including eight types of RAID, data replication, data integrity checking and snapshots.

One of its more unique capabilities is to attach to other storage systems and use them as pools of disks. With this feature companies going through a storage refresh can connect to the IceWEB unit and allow it to repurpose their current storage system as a replication or backup target. Nothing is better than getting a few more years from your old technology.

While technology assessments of Storage Switzerland, LLC are neutral, we do receive compensation from IT solutions vendors, integrators, and users of those solutions. However, we accept no compensation from any company until we have properly vetted a technology.
