Intransa Scalable Storage Solution Expedites Medical Research Applications for Dynamic Health Strategies

SAN JOSE, California — June 14, 2006

Intransa, the global innovator of network-centric, IP storage solutions, today announced that Dynamic Health Strategies, Inc. (DHS), a healthcare data analysis and consulting company, has deployed Intransa‘s full-line of IP products, including the IP5000, the IP3000 and the IP2000, to improve end-user performance and the processing and analyzing of research data, and to make it easy to provision storage resources on-the-fly.

“Our healthcare analysis experts shouldn‘t have to worry about IT issues. They should be able to process and analyze data without worrying about storage capacity,” said Malek A. Bohsali, Chief Operating Officer at DHS. “Our users are neither network nor O/S kernel savvy, so it is a requirement that their environment is easy to use and intuitive. With the Intransa solution, users can easily drag and drop files just as they do in Windows.”

For a consulting company dedicated to the advancement of healthcare through quality and business analysis, the need for a flexible and reliable, yet low-cost solution that could grow with their needs was critical. As a result of the Intransa architecture, which uses standard Ethernet switching for host and storage array connectivity, DHS achieves much better performance than with its previous DAS environment. The scalable Intransa solution enables DHS to easily scale the IP SAN using in-house resources. As a result, researchers have faster and more reliable access to data enabling them to process and analyze patient records and test results more effectively. In addition, the company is able to start more research projects without having to worry about storage capacity.

“Only Intransa‘s modular architecture allows companies to start with a small IP SAN and pay as they grow, making it easy to administer and stay within budget,” said Doug Rainbolt, vice president of marketing, Intransa. “As DHS knows, provisioning an Intransa SAN to provide additional seamless storage capacity and volume expansion is as simple as connecting an additional disk enclosure.”
