31 Panasas Testimonials

“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 lives up to its promise of terrific performance with negligible maintenance and administration time."

“You don’t have to understand the technology to see how you would get a dramatic increase in performance. I don’t care how many spindles you put behind the NAS controller, you’re going to run out of network bandwidth to the controller. It’s just not going to be able to handle it. Panasas, on the other hand, with its parallel file system, uses all of the network paths to access data directly, not bottlenecked by individual controllers.”

“Out of the box, the system was integrated effortlessly into our infrastructure.”

“We have tremendous confidence in the manageability, reliability, and performance of Panasas storage and in the integrity of the company.”

“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.”

"Once Panasas is up and running, you just forget about it, which is exactly what we need."

"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.”

“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.”

“The older storage systems we had before were always crashing. We’ve been very pleased with the performance and reliability of Panasas storage.”

“Panasas storage has virtually managed itself. Even during the period when we didn’t have anyone dedicated full-time to administer the center we didn’t have any problems or complaints about the storage. Our users are happy with the performance which allows them to do more with their big data workloads and get results faster.”

“We’ve been able to fit a lot more storage within a smaller space and will have all of the compute capacity needed.”

"The speed and power of Panasas ActiveStor helps us support our clients’ tight production schedules."

“The Panasas solution has increased our processing capability significantly by providing parallel data paths directly between the server nodes and the storage system. We’ve literally halved the time that our system spends on processing all the SAR data. Within five minutes of installing the Panasas ActiveStor system we could see all clients and all data.
