OmniBus runs a continuous test program to assess IT hardware for use with the iTX platform, ensuring that certified products fully meet the performance and reliability criteria for critical broadcast applications. The HP StorageWorks X9000 Systems were assessed for resilience, data integrity during intensive transfer activity and bandwidth performance. In addition, the X9000 System's scalability of up to 16 petabytes ensures OmniBus has the capacity required to keep up with the data volumes that the application produces.
"OmniBus is pleased to work with HP to bring this solution to our broadcast customers," said Richard Tyrell-Ead, vice president, OmniBus Systems. "The HP StorageWorks X9000 exceeds our performance, usability and scalability requirements for use with iTX. Through its previous certification on HP ProLiant DL Series servers, iTX customers who want to standardize on one hardware provider can specify an all-HP solution."
