“MTI Technology Corp. today announced that SayIt has chosen MTI
to solve its fault-tolerant storage requirements.”
“Under the agreement, MTI installed its Vivant 20 series
enterprise storage solution at SayIt’s co-location in San
Francisco.”
“From the onset of bringing the site online, it was decided that
SayIt wanted to build a foundation based on Unix and Linux.”
“‘We wanted to keep everything possible on a Unix platform for
scalability and stability,’ Yogi said. ‘When we architected the
individual components of the site, we went with Intel-based Linux
servers for our front-end Web servers, application servers and
content delivery servers.'”
“As with most online ventures, speed and high-availability
were of paramount importance. The site was operational Feb. 1,
and traffic was heavy from the very first day. According to PC Data
Online, the site received more than 900,000 unique visitors in
February and was ranked the fourth-most-visited ‘Greeting
Card/Flowers’ site for the week ending March 4.”
