Overview:
The BlueArc Mercury™ Server is a next generation network storage platform that consolidates multiple applications and simplifies storage management for businesses with mid-range storage requirements - without compromising performance and scalability. Its open architecture excels across a variety of application environments, including general purpose file systems, database, messaging and online fixed content.

The Mercury platform leverages a hybrid-core architecture that delivers the highest performance available in mid-range systems. Employing field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and traditional multi-core processors, this architecture separates data movement and management processes that normally compete for system resources. Data is transferred between logical blocks in a point-to-point fashion, preventing conflicts or bottlenecks and ensuring consistently high performance. The hybrid-core architecture works in combination with BlueArc’s advanced data management services and an integrated Storage Ecosystem to deliver an optimized storage solution.
