XPress XSN for Storage Networks is the Association Database by Econnectix that offers high-performance, high-availability, and linearly scalable data storage and retrieval for keys and their associated values.  Available as an OEM component, XPress XSN provides the core capabilities that modern storage applications need to smoothly and cost-effectively support any volume of metadata, query and update transaction rate, and client load – period.  Based on patent-pending technology, XPress XSN efficiently supports arbitrary high-availability configurations for both local and geographically distributed systems, and runs on a variety of platforms including both commodity and enterprise-class hardware.  XPress XSN provides performance, scalability, and replication policies unavailable by other technologies – at substantial cost-savings and reduced TCO. 

Benefits	High-performance due to network optimized interaction model Real-time object and metadata management of any scale across network High-availability from real-time replication Virtually unlimited capacity based on efficient clustering technology Low latency provided by efficient geographic distribution
Features	Network Optimized XPress XSN is engineered around optimized networking technology for dynamic, high-performance network interactions to support both current and future performance requirements.
	Replication Rather than forcing application design to work around other technology’s poor replication performance, XPress XSN replication provides virtually real-time database synchronization on a per record basis.
	Clustering XPress XSN clustering technology permits distributed processing and storage across virtually any number of machines, without effecting client accessibility to data and without requiring value-add middleware or special hardware.
	Performance XPress XSN provides multiple orders of magnitude performance improvement over relational databases and directory services for managing object locality and metadata. Persistent Storage XPress XSN provides high-performance disk storage to complement the network interaction model.  XPress XSN disk storage is fully synchronized with network activity so that crucial performance is matched by crucial persistence for full server recovery.
	Recoverability XPress XSN provides super-fast recoverability – in seconds, not minutes. Query Model XPress XSN provides a query model suited for high volume, network-intensive applications that process small data items.  Includes an optimized core of critical database operations for highly efficient queries.
	Security XPress XSN can integrate with all major security protocols.
	Client Applications XPress XSN includes a software server ported to common Unix platforms and Java and C client libraries.  Pluggable front-ends allow integration with industry standards.
Architecture	Econnectix XPress XSN is based on a patent-pending disk-memory-network synchronization architecture which provides breakthrough performance, scalability, and availability.  With XPress applications can manage key-value associations in distributed systems at wire speed. The architecture guarantees: § Atomic data consistency across memory, disk, and network § Synchronization of servers at the performance cost of network latency

XPress XSN meets and surpasses data management needs with real-time response, regardless of object location:  across racks in a machine room, within a cluster on a network, on a LAN, on a WAN, or even in global distribution via the Internet.
