Ciprico has supplied the industry with high performance storage arrays for over 20 years, with the first RAID array shipping in 1988. Since then, the company has developed a reputation for providing ultra-high speed RAID arrays and networked-storage appliances that are optimized for large file transfers and video applications. In the early years, the company strongly leveraged on-the-fly RAID techniques at ASIC level that meet the stringent requirements of video recording and video capture, winning key video post production OEMs and video data surveillance customers. Ciprico is reinventing the landscape yet again by leveraging pure software RAID techniques based on RAIDCore™ and VST technology embedded in its own appliances that leverage the power of Intel and AMD architecture multi-core processing.
