RackTop Systems Announces VMAA for VMware – A World’s First in Server Virtualization Efficiency

Jan. 16, 2012 - PRLog -- RackTop developed VMAA as a purpose built server appliance designed specifically to meet the compute needs of virtualized private cloud architecture. The product is a high performance dual processor all SSD server developed to specifically take advantage of the swap to host cache feature introduced in VMware vSphere 5.

Laura Culverwell, RackTop System’s Marketing Director, explains how VMAA is a logical integration decision for any company:

“Before VMAA you had no purpose built solution to provide compute resources for your private cloud. VMAA was designed specifically to host VMs. It eliminates the need to go out and configure servers. With VMAA, you simply match your VMware vRam and CPU licensing to the appropriate appliance model. And to lessen the financial burden, we’ve worked hard to ensure that our price beats Dell’s or HP’s similar configurations.” says Laura.

VMAA comes with or without VMware licensing, and can be delivered in a complete single SKU private cloud bundle which also includes BrickStor, RackTop’s ZFS based enterprise storage appliance powered by NexentaStor, as the SAN/NAS shared storage component.

“We initially built VMAA for our own cloud, and found that it not only saved us money, but implementation time as well. We felt it was a natural transition to productize these appliances to provide our customers with the same great turn-key solution. The systems are delivered ready to be put to work for your business. It’s as easy as racking it and hitting the power button.” concludes Culverwell.
