Enterprise Linux Today: Ecrix and Knox Software Announce Turnkey Server and Storage Solutions

“Out-of-Box Server Applicance and Backup Solutions Meet Wide
Range of Market Needs.”

“”Tape storage innovators, Ecrix Corp. and Knox Software,
unveiled a reseller program under which the companies, in
collaboration with the Sun Cobalt server appliance business unit of
Sun Microsystems, Inc., provide complete turnkey storage backup
solutions in concert with Sun Cobalt’s RaQ 4i and Qube 3 server
appliance sales. With these solutions, Internet Service Providers
(ISPs) can offer increased data security, adding value to their
product offerings.”

“The reseller program offers an incentive through the use of
manufacturer rebates; making the total solution cost less than if
the various components are purchased separately. The rebates are
available to resellers for products purchased through distribution
or direct from the manufacturers. Sun is offering the corresponding
promotion to Sun Cobalt reseller partners through their web site
(www.cobalt.com). As a result, resellers get turnkey hardware and
software solutions whose interoperability is directly supported by
the manufacturers. These solutions make the deployment of
applications, layered services and data backup over the Web quick,
easy and profitable. More importantly, a web browser-based user
interface simplifies administration and enables out-ofbox
installations in 30 minutes or less.”
