The Small Tree Connection
Steve Modica from Small Tree Communications has just stopped by. Seems a few former SGI employees from Minnesota and Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, have banded together and come up with an Ethernet connection scheme that works for everyone. But I’ll let Steve tell you…
Thanks Tom…
Small Tree started out writing drivers to put Macs onto high-speed networks. Recently, a number of new technologies have arrived like AOE and iSCSI that allow people to connect to high-speed storage using inexpensive Ethernet. Pro Tools customers have known about this kind of thing for some time.
Small Tree has begun offering a line of products called “SOE” (Storage Over Ethernet), where we can provide customers with the correct technology for their specific situation. Whether they require the high-speed scalability of iSCSI over 10Gb Ethernet, or a simple AFP NAS server, we can get them connected with what they need without shooting their budget. We like to say, there are a lot of EtherNOT technologies out there, but EtherNOT never wins ![]()
