"Once Panasas is up and running, you just forget about it, which is exactly what we need."
“With ActiveStor, I can have a virtually unlimited number of users editing off a single global namespace, all with a single login. You cannot imagine how much this has helped manageability. We no longer have the need to deploy and manage additional storage islands to address performance and user count limitations.”
“We are extremely pleased with the performance gains achieved by the Panasas system.”
"Rather than having a cluster node failure at least once a week, as a comparable system with local disks would experience, the time between node failures was increased to once every 7 weeks."
“Once Panasas is up and running, you just forget about it, which is exactly what we need.”
"The speed and power of Panasas ActiveStor helps us support our clients’ tight production schedules."
“By using Panasas storage with the DirectFlow® protocol, we’ve increased performance of our applications deployed on our Linux servers ten-fold and now have all of the throughput we need for existing and future applications."
“Panasas is what storage should be—something that you don’t have to think about.”
“Panasas ActiveStor speeds up our design and simulation processes and saves us an incredible amount of time and money.”
“Technology advances that have brought down the cost of sequencing have contributed to an explosion of data...Panasas helps NCBI keep pace with the volume and complexity of incoming information in a cost-effective manner.”
"HPC clusters have developed to a level where they are now professional products which we should expect to “just work.” The complete solution chosen by the University of Leicester does exactly that with best of breed storage from Panasas. Ease of management allows researchers to optimize their use of the system without having to spend valuable time simply keeping the system running. This is very important on an HPC system which supports a broad range of research across a diverse set of academic disciplines."
“Many storage vendor claims sounded pretty good until we dug into them a little bit. We eliminated many options pretty quickly, but with Panasas ActiveStor 14, the more we drilled down, the more we liked.”
"Panasas lives up to its promise of terrific performance with negligible maintenance and administration time."
“By leveraging the object-based architecture, we were able to completely eliminate our storage I/O bottleneck.”
“Panasas talked to us the way I thought a vendor should talk to a customer. They listened to what I was trying to accomplish and then helped me get there. The product did exactly what they said it would, and they stood behind it. Panasas went above and beyond. ActiveStor 14 was so fast, it exposed bottlenecks in other parts of our workflow, and Panasas helped us overcome them.”
