Storage Supersite: Iomega Introduces New 2.5-Inch Removable Hard Disk Format

General 8066 Published 2003-08-13 14:57 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Iomega Corp. on Tuesday introduced its Removable Rigid Disk (RRD), a new cartridge hard disk standard that the company said it hopes will return it to the top of the removable-storage market. Due in early 2004, the 2.5-inch format will provide a capacity of 35GB. Aimed primarily at replacing tape backup drives in small business environments, the RRD units will bear a "snazzier name" when they are released, an Iomega product manager explained. Available in the first quarter of 2004 will be external USB and internal ATAPI models, while a version with a Serial ATA interface is planned for the third quarter.

New Survey Finds Fortune 1000 Web Sites Waste Millions Annually on Bandwidth

General 8066 Published 2003-07-30 10:08 by Philipp Esselbach 0

A new survey of Fortune 1000 corporate Web sites (http://www.port80software.com/surveys) conducted by Port80 Software, Inc., a developer of software to secure, accelerate and customize Microsoft’s Internet Information Server (IIS), reports that only 29 of the top 1000 corporations' sites use HTTP compression. This new study illustrates the opportunity for all companies to leverage standards-based HTTP compression technologies for their Web sites and applications, reducing bandwidth bills, speeding up file delivery and serving more users with existing resources.

"Although it is difficult to calculate exact savings across all Fortune 1000 sites, the value of HTTP compression is clear. And with bandwidth bills in the thousands or tens-of-thousands of dollars a month, it is surprising that more Fortune 1000s do not use compression," said Joseph Lima, COO of Port80 Software. "For perspective, if all Fortune 1000 sites used compression, the aggregate savings would be 20 times greater than at present, and the average site would save over 25% on bandwidth bills."

Standardized in HTTP 1.0 since 1996 and supported in all browsers released in the last five years (Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape versions 4 and above), HTTP compression reduces network bandwidth, optimizes download time and improves end-user performance.

Port80 Software offers monthly surveys investigating how the world’s largest companies use Web server and development technologies. To review an update of the popular Port80 Web Servers Survey and the new Compression Survey, including archived reports, a top ten list with the best and worst of compression among the Top 1000 sites, methodology and a tool to check any company’s Web server compression, please visit http://www.port80software.com/surveys.
