EMC partners on data movement, analysis By Tom Sullivan EMC AND TORRENT Systems have teamed to provide users of EMC storage systems with a means to move and analyze data. As part of the alliance, Torrent, based in Cambridge, Mass., has joined the EMC E-Infostructure Developers Program and will use Hopkinton, Mass.-based EMC's APIs to integrate its Orchestrate with EMC InfoMover software. The integration will enable data transfer between EMC's Symmetrix Enterprise Storage systems and Orchestrate, a data management platform that includes data processing and data analysis features. EMC's InfoMover transfers bulk files bi-directionally between EMC's Symmetrix systems and mainframe, Unix, Windows NT, and Windows 2000 platforms. Orchestrate allows InfoMover to run on multiprocessor machines, thereby enabling users to run multiple instances of InfoMover in parallel, which increases the speed at which data gets to analytic applications, according to Tom Ebling, Torrent's CEO. Ebling added that the integration increases Orchestrate's performance in data warehouses by routing it through Symmetrix channel and cache memory subsystems. "The result is it speeds up the process of [business intelligence]," Ebling added. EMC's E-Infostructure Developers Program was created to bridge the gap between server-based architectures and EMC Symmetrix, according to Colin Bailey, the business manager for E-Infostructure. The program provides participants with access to EMC APIs, which are software paths into EMC's Symmetrix Enterprise Storage system and its software.
