Alacritech SES2001XT Single Port iSCSI Controller - PCI-X

Midrange Enterprise servers are challenged with supporting an ever-increasing number of clients, moving greater amounts of data, and running more demanding applications. As demands on the servers increase, the burden of network processing becomes apparent. The server will be unable to scale to support additional users with the same level of service. As the server becomes impacted the standard solution is to install additional servers to handle the load, but this can be very costly. The cost of additional servers is not limited to the server hardware alone as software licenses, server management, and even power costs add up.

Alacritech  Scalable Network Accelerators extend the life of servers by allowing them to scale to support more clients, move more data, and run applications faster. They do this by moving the processing of network traffic off of the host system and placing it onto custom hardware specifically designed for the job. This frees the CPU to do the work that it was intended to do. The result is better overall server performance, a longer life for the server, and reduced overall costs to the data center.
