The DR1600 series cards were designed to assist IT administrators in managing the exponential growth in data and supporting the dynamic IT infrastructure required to address an increasingly demanding business environment. Today’s businesses need to be agile—with no down time—to respond quickly to changing market conditions. Operational excellence is a must to ensure that resources are utilized efficiently and cost effectively. Services and information need to be available 24x7 and across multiple geographies. Information protection is mandatory as data is being transmitted between locations and across different networks. Furthermore, increasing energy costs require a more energy efficient data center.

Given this business environment, IT infrastructure needs the ability to support a high quality of service (QoS); the flexibility to add resources or applications in a non-disruptive manner; provide high availability, security and data protection; virtualization; scalability and high performance; and have a small carbon footprint.

The DR 1600 series provides power efficient acceleration capabilities to data security, compression, and deduplication for enterprise class storage applications.
