Chuck Doerr, “After delving into the capabilities of the Azul platform, it became clear that the platform offered the best solution to reduce risk for our clients and provide the long term scalability to support our business objectives. ” |
|

Hugo Lumsdon, On-line Architect, “Azul provides the flexibility to meet business requirements while maintaining Sky’s green credentials. With Azul, BSkyB has scaled up its existing capacity many times over, with an almost negligible impact in terms of heat, power and data-centre space. ” |

Brian Bradley, Senior Vice President Multi-Channel
“The unique approach of Azul’s server appliance delivers unmatched scalability to support dramatic growth and performance during the peak holiday season.” “With Azul Systems’ appliances, we are able to increase web portal application throughput by 18.75X and reduce worst case response times by 6.83X. Achieving these extraordinary results while lowering hosting costs is a testament to Azul’s innovation.” |

Jason Pelzer, Project Manager “As we began to build the LimeWire Store in early 2007, we knew that with over 60 million active users of LimeWire Client that application scalability, data center footprint and cost were our top issues. Few new ventures need to handle thousands of hits per second on their first day of operation, and we couldn’t afford to stumble.” “Azul Systems’ appliances worked with our existing data center resources, improved manageability, and boosted our Java application performance both in terms of scalability and reduced response times without consuming additional data center floor space or power.” |

Barry Strasnick, CIO “Azul Systems’ appliances delivered unique functionality that eliminated garbage collection pauses and made our applications perform consistently even under load.” “CitiStreet has been in production with the Azul’s appliances since August 2007. Since that time, we have not had to restart the appliances at all. With Azul, we’ve reduced our server counts by 6X and yet achieved very high performance.” Read the Press Release » |

Scott Metzger, CTO "Azul allowed us to scale up our computing environment rather than scale it out with clustering technology, which would have required more engineering time and expense to implement and maintain for the types of applications we support. Looking at the total cost of ownership and short implementation cycle, Azul's hardware was the best alternative for us, providing minimal downside risk. Once we validated our own applications on the hardware, we quickly adopted this platform.” Read the Information Week article: The Allure of New IT » |

Alan Freudenstein, Managing Director “Credit Suisse recognizes the value of investing in technologies that are critical to the way we handle transaction-intensive business activities.” “The fact that Credit Suisse led a significant investment round in Azul Systems demonstrates our belief in, and support of, the kinds of solutions that Azul is bringing to Wall Street.” Read the Press Release » |

With Azul Compute Appliances, companies facing capacity challenges can achieve the scalability they need while controlling IT costs through greater manageability, flexibility, and reduced requirements for real estate and power.” |
