NEI Introduces S-3000 R2 Server for High-Speed, High-Density Security Applications
CANTON, Mass., May 11 -- NEI (NASDAQ:NENG), a leading provider of application platforms and lifecycle support services for software developers, OEMs and service providers worldwide, today announced the availability of the S-3000 R2, a scalable 3U rack mount server solution designed for high-performance security applications requiring deep storage and mission-critical reliability.
The S-3000 R2 is purpose-built for threat mitigation applications that demand high reliability and superior speed, such as real-time network access control and intrusion detection, firewall auditing and security, and web and email filtering gateways. The scalable server can be expanded with single or dual Intel 5500 Xeon processors and up to 96 GB DDR3 memory for maximum uptime for high-density monitoring and prevention. Up to 16 total drives for 32 TB of storage are also available for more sophisticated network analytic applications with extensive storage requirements.
According to a recent independent report, "Budgets for acquiring new security technology are recovering: 42% of enterprises expect spending on new security technology to significantly increase." The report, entitled The State Of Enterprise IT Security And Emerging Trends: 2009 To 2010, Forrester Research, Inc., January, 2010, also states, "There is also high growth in the areas of both data security and security operations (which includes security information management; configuration and patch management; and incident response, forensics, and investigations)."
"NEI's platform expertise and support services provide real value to software providers serving the security market," said Jeff Hudgins, vice president of marketing at NEI. "Enterprise network threats are growing, and we want to make sure our customers can deploy and service the increasingly sophisticated network security solutions their customers demand. The S-3000 R2 is purpose-built for a variety of network threat and mitigation applications."
The S-3000 R2 also features up to six full-height, full-length PCIe slots, as well as integrated hardware RAID, redundant AC or DC power, and hot swap enterprise class hard drives, all designed to provide maximum reliability for real-time, data-heavy security applications. With NEI's Smart Services, customers can also receive full lifecycle management to ensure optimal performance of the server from design and development to deployment and in-field maintenance.
Pricing and Availability
The new S-3000 R2 is now shipping. Base model pricing starts at $2,750 (USD).
