“NetLedger selected NetApp filers because they combine with
Oracle8i and VA Linux Systems servers to deliver superior
scalability, reliability, and performance. With several hundred VA
Linux servers, the new NetLedger data center is one of the world’s
largest production instances running Oracle in a Linux environment,
and critical data is stored on NetApp filers.”

“As the industry’s premier provider of Web-based accounting and
business management applications for small businesses, NetLedger
requires a data center that is nimble, powerful, and robust.
Network Appliance storage appliances are ideal for this new world
of data center and database applications, where storage resources
must be easy to deploy and rapidly scalable.”

“Businesses growing in Internet time need database storage
solutions that are as fast and flexible as the companies
themselves,” said Mark Santora, senior vice president of marketing
at Network Appliance. “Placing the Oracle database files on NetApp
filers gives NetLedger virtually unlimited scalability, simplified
administration, and the capability to deliver outstanding service
to its customers.”

The NetLedger infrastructure based on the Oracle database
and VA Linux servers is designed to handle the tremendous traffic
NetLedger is attracting and retaining, while providing 100%
redundant capacity.
