Cisco Integrated Services Router, Lambda Cloud Feature, StarWind HyperConverged Appliance

Future-proof your Internet of Things deployments
Optimize your IoT deployments
The modularity and expansion capabilities of the IR1101 Integrated Services Router Rugged can help extend product lifetime. Its compact, modular, ruggedized design is excellent for mission-critical cases. It offers stronger industrial router security and simplified management with SD-WAN architecture, edge compute, and IOS XE.

Features and capabilities
Modularity and investment protection
The IR1101 has highly modular and expandable hardware designed to extend product lifetime. Internal and expansion modules give you the flexibility to add or upgrade WAN and storage components as technologies and your needs evolve.

Dual WAN gigabit router. 5G ready.
A 5G-ready, dual WAN gigabit router
When provisioned with two cellular modules, the IR1101 enables concurrent connectivity to two cellular networks for WAN redundancy, enhanced data throughputs, load balancing, and differentiated services. The hardware is future-proofed to handle 5G.

Lambda Cloud Feature Overview

Cutting-edge hardware
Get access to fast GPUs for Deep Learning

Save weeks of setup time
You can start training in minutes instead of days.

Secure and reliable
After your instance is shut down, the data and code is destroyed, leaving nothing behind.

Save hundreds of thousands
Our instances are 50% of the cost of AWS p3 instances for the same performance. Switch over and save tens of thousands per month.

Simple and scalable
Spin up hundreds of GPUs to scale out your hyper parameter search. Spin them down after you're done.

StarWind HyperConverged Appliance

For organizations who are looking to minimize application downtime but are limited on IT team resources and/or budgets, we offer the StarWind HyperConverged Appliance (HCA). StarWind HCA is a 100% software-defined hyperconverged platform built with Dell® OEM or StarWind-branded server platform. There’s a lot we offload from customer’s shoulders: picking the right hardware and software, migrating the applications, and integrating the HCA in your datacenter.

Our engineering team does it all for you at no extra cost! It's also the only solution on the market that offers true HA with just a single onsite node. The days when you had to chase support when something breaks are gone: HCA ProActive Support monitors the cluster 24/7, predicts failures and reacts to them before things go South. Thereby, we minimize downtime and management efforts even further.

PAINS
GAINS
Strict budgets
Fits strictest budget requirements with a 2-node cluster priced 2x lower than a Tesla Model 3
No overpaying for unnecessary or proprietary hardware – HCA is 100% software-defined and requires as little as one node to make your applications Highly Available.
Limited IT team resources
Zero Configuration, Migration, and Integration efforts since everything is done by StarWind Engineers at no extra cost.
Zero time spent on fixing broken systems- StarWind ProActive Support AI monitors all cluster components 24/7/365 to prevent breaks.
High downtime costs
High fault tolerance rate: 2-node system can lose 1 node + 1 disk and keep going.
Constant uptime thanks to synchronous failover clustering between on-premises and public cloud with StarWind Hybrid Cloud.
Explore hybrid cloud with StarWind
StarWind HCA provides businesses with a non-stop applications availability and unbeatable data security thanks to Hybrid Cloud support. Now, companies can flexibly migrate virtualized workloads between their on-premises environment and AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud with zero downtime.

High availability with a single node on-prem?
With HCA companies can achieve High Availability for their ROBO and Edge locations with just one onsite physical node. StarWind ensures application uptime and data security with minimum possible hardware footprint by clustering remote HCA nodes with public cloud, main Datacenter, or even both.

Pay-as-You-Go
For SMB and ROBO bounded with limited Capital Expenses and IT team resources, StarWind offers a flexible Equipment Financing plan. Organizations can start using StarWind HCA from the day one with a convenient zero payment plan, broken down into the OPEX.

A Support Plan Ticking All The Boxes?
"Less is more" is a key rule for business success. Providing uninterrupted operation of the company’s IT infrastructure and saving time on having no downtime, the organization receives a strategic resource for the implementation of future business projects. StarWind Support offers three levels of HCA support designed to meet specific technical requirements and business needs, saving your time and maximizing your IT infrastructure performance.

HCA Models
With StarWind HCA there is a model line for every workload and performance requirement.

HCA Disk is designed for applications with moderate compute and high storage requirements. It can also be added as a capacity or DR node to the existing cluster.

Features

StarWind NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF)
StarWind’s NVMe-oF protocol implementation allows maximum PCIe SSD utilization in Hyper-V environments. With this protocol in place, the difference between a locally connected NVMe drive and one presented over the network vanishes.

StarWind iSER
StarWind iSER, a protocol designed to improve iSCSI, completely eliminates the problem of network bottlenecks and latency issues providing higher bandwidth for block storage transfers. It allows achieving maximum performance in cluster systems, which makes VM migration, data and VM replication even faster and easier to implement.

Log-structured Write-Back Cache (LSWBC)
Log-structured Write-Back Cache is a caching technology tailored for intense virtualized workloads. By effectively combining the fast memory like flash or RAM and a tiny portion of your storage, this feature optimizes the way data is written to the underlying storage. As a result, all your applications always get the resiliency and performance that they need.
