---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Florida SunFlash Third Party: New Version Of eNFS Introduced SunFLASH Vol 34 #20 October 1991 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a third party product announcement from bjd@interstream.com (Bruce J. DaCosta) -johnj ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (PITTSBURGH, PA) INTERSTREAM, Inc. introduced the latest version of its eNFS product, which boosts NFS write performance 2 to 5 times. "This new version of the software includes our new feature, eNFS/Display, which allows the user to see how eNFS improves their NFS server," states Bruce J. DaCosta, president of INTERSTREAM. The graphical display consists of five panels, which can give information about the write mix performed by their NFS server. The graphs display information at user selected time intervals, giving the user a dynamic view of the system. One panel displays the write efficiency, which gives a quantitative comparison of eNFS to normal NFS. Another panel shows the mixture of writes on the server. Sequential, random, diskless client and total writes are displayed. INTERSTREAM also announced an aggressive pricing schedule for cross-mounted NFS systems. "Our former pricing schedule did not accommodate cross-mounted systems and their need for more than one copy of eNFS. The new schedule takes this need into account," says President Bruce J. DaCosta. The new pricing ranges from $995.00 to $350.00 for desktop servers and $1995 to $1,200 for traditional file servers. eNFS dynamically loads on Sun Microsystems workstations in 10 minutes, comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee and one year maintenance agreement.
