Power-All Networks is a crusader for
a new type of network and systems architecture - the creation
of TOSCANA. TOSCANA stands for Total Self-optimizing/balancing,
Clustered, Auto-fail over/failsafe Network Architecture
for both LAN (Local Area Network) and WAN (Wide Area Network),
wired or wireless.
The creativity and technology behind is the company's
knowledge and know-how in dynamic networks in co-operative,
clustering based networking. Engineering wise, the company
implements with its TOSCANA Operating System with in house
know-how on Open Source (Unix), Open Standard hardware
and network platforms.
In terms of cost, performance, availability and ROI
(Return On Investment), the Company is "miles ahead"
of the current and traditional static networks and Protocol
based networking.
Through the company's principles of
dynamic networks; an entire LAN (Local Area Network) is
condensed into a single system. This alters the 50 or
so years of networking tradition.
Through the company's co-operative computing and clustering
based networking, resource sharing; co-operative/distributed/parallel
computations are achieved across an entire LAN or WAN
(Wide Area Networks). With TOSCANA O/S, this breaks away
from the current protocol based, non-sharing networks
with numerous real benefits. It redefines the capabilities
of LAN & WAN.
Through the company's engineering (in clustering and multiprocessor
based operating systems and Gigabit Ethernet with Quality
Of Services), high scalability, high performance, high
availability, high traceability, fail-safe and fail-over
systems are achieved and become network intelligent. MIS
and systems architecture would never be the same in the
future.
Through the use of TOSCANAs, Open and standard hardware
and network platforms, over all system costs (R&D,
engineering time and production overhead) and product
cycle times are down to a minimum. A new equation in terms
of improving system costs, performance, maintenance and
product cycles are created.
The above are not dreams but time-tested products on
the market. With proper finance and marketing, the company
would be a paradigm shift and a major force to the industry.
From this point on, the landscape of LAN and WAN could
never be the same: with 1 /2 to 1/10 in cost, x 2 to x
10 in performance, high scalability, high availability,
fail-over and fail-safe architecture, a new standard in
performance and in ROI is set.
Based on the above principles, the company designs, develops,
manufactures and markets the most advanced and powerful
(OSI model Layer 7/Layer 5 to Layer 2) integrated application
systems. These TOSCANA systems can perform the functions
of routers/servers and switches combined. TOSCANAs are
integrated network products that perform high capacity
dynamic networking and application routing combined with
the most powerful network and server functions on the
market today. TOSCANAs are highly scalable and available
with unmatchable ROI and benefits!
Power and scalability comes with our Clustered TOSCANAs.
In terms of its capabilities in performing routing functions,
it is the fastest on the market today; five to eight times
faster at about ? to 2/3rds the cost of current backbone
(Highest End) routers. It changes the way Data Centers
and networks are to be designed and deployed.
One of the leading integrated functions of the TOSCANA,
is the VOD-Data-Center-In-A-Box. An optimized TOSCANA
is a network of routers, servers, switches, load balancers,
firewalls and VOD (Video On Demand) servers integrated
into a single unit. It reduces system cost by at least
2/3 and increases performance by two to five times. It
changes the landscape of VOD businesses.
"Sustainable business models", "Killer
applications", and "equipment with the ROI (Return
Of Investment) right for the Internet economy" have
been the regular absentees in our network-based economy.
That was why we had the Internet bubble. That is why we
have no significant "locomotives" to push and
pull the economy up at our current state of the industry.
Power-All Networks is the answer to such needs. Our products
and capabilities allow us to be a single source for the
entire infrastructure from systems to Data Centers to
LAN & WAN.
These products have been time tested for three generations.
The first and second generations have been for internal
use and for testing in a leading ISP running global networks
and routing for two years. The current generation, the
third generation, has been in use over 6 months. It has
been carrying world-class data traffic since then.
To our best knowledge on an apple-to-apple basis, there
is no direct product competition on the market today.
Company positioning wise (in terms of technical platforms,
approach, architecture and coverage), there is no company
in our range.
The company TOSCANA product lines are grouped into three
categories:
- The LAN replacement series.
Multifunctions, up to an entire LAN for hundreds of
thousands of users, are integrated into a single system.
This system could be our "Office In A Box",
a very simple and inexpensive pair of TOSCANAs for small
offices. It could be our highly available, fail-safe
and fail over, clustering based "Network in a Chassis"
for large enterprises.
- The Infrastructure series.
The most powerful, highly scalable and highly available
TOSCANAs on the market. They are for infrastructural
projects such as data centers, metropolitan or backbone
networks
- The WAN series.
These TOSCANAs are the underlying gigabit and fast Ethernet
units supporting clustering and co-operative computing
across WAN and LAN.
Overall and benefits wise, TOSCANAs provide integration,
solutions, features, performance, functionality and reliability
in an economical way that was not available before. An
entire new standard in price performance ratio, ROI (Return
On Investment), absolute cost of equipment and operation
is set. A new business model to revolutionize data and
its business is born based on the company's technology
and products.
