BlueArc

BlueArc is the world leader in network storage innovation. BlueArc provides Global Relay with its redundant NAS/SAN storage systems.

Why BlueArc? By leveraging BlueArc's Titan NAS/SAN Storage Systems, Global Relay provides high-speed access to indexed message data through Fibre Channel arrays. Mirrored Titan storage systems are deployed in Global Relay's East and West Coast Data Centers offering a fully-redundant solution, as well as providing the ability to store data in a tamperproof WORM format for compliance archiving and electronic discovery. With Titan's multi-tiered storage, and the ability to continue expanding safely and securely through hundreds of terabytes per device, Global Relay's requirements for performance, scalability, and total storage capacity are also satisfied.

Highlight: A key aspect of BlueArc's silicon-based Titan technology is its blindingly fast speed - holding the world record for messaging capacity and performance, delivering the equivalent of 30 million messages per day on the SPECmail benchmark, a standardized test developed by messaging vendors and research organizations. With BlueArc as the core of Global Relay's storage, customer data is safe, secure, and instantly retrievable.
