9 Nov NetApp Press Release. Network Appliance's NetCache Offering Delivers Industry's Only High-Performance Web Caching Solution Deployable from Data Centers to Remote Offices New NetCache Appliances with NetCache 3.3 Software Double Performance Over Previous Generation; Company Targets Enterprise and Smaller ISP Segment with Economical New NetCache C720s Santa Clara CA, November 9, 1998 -- - Network Appliance, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTAP), the leading provider of dedicated data-access appliances, today announced its second-generation NetCacheâ„¢ products - the industry's first high-performance, carrier-class Web caching solution that is fully deployable from data centers to remote offices. The performance of the new NetCache C700 series appliances and NetCache 3.3 Software has doubled over the product's previous generation. In addition, the company has extended its product line to target the high-performance enterprise and ISP market segment with the introduction of the new NetCache C720s appliance. While alternative offerings only address limited market segments, NetCache's expanded offerings are developed specifically for turnkey deployability across entire data networks. Designed to enhance end-user quality of service by significantly reducing bandwidth congestion and accelerating cached application performance, NetCache appliances offer industry-leading performance, reliability, flexibility and security. "NetApp's new NetCache appliance again raises the bar in terms of industry-leading performance and deployability," said Dan Warmenhoven, president and CEO of Network Appliance. "Today's savvy ISPs and enterprise customers are demanding true turnkey, carrier-class solutions in reaction to alternative software-only solutions that run on high-cost, general-purpose servers. These cumbersome offerings are not easily deployable across an entire network without making major real estate or performance concessions. In contrast, NetCache offers a cost-effective, appliance approach to answering the needs of the industry's highest-growth and most data-intensive customers." FULL TEXT @netapp.com
