From our beginning in 2009, WHIPTAIL has taken evolutionary steps to move data at the speed of life. We were founded in New Jersey by James Candelaria who, while an IT consultant for Fortune 100 companies in the New York metro area, heard his clients repeatedly express frustration with existing data center technologies in a new world where cloud computing, mobile technology, Big Data and virtualization were rapidly changing the way businesses operate. Despite diverting more and more of their shrinking budgets into hard disk storage, his clients achieved only minimal performance improvement. Understanding the potential of solid-state Flash technology, James developed solutions to [**accelerate application workloads**](http://whiptail.com/solutions/application-workloads/) and utilize more application functionality than ever before. WHIPTAIL remains at the forefront of this paradigm shift in the storage industry. As opposed to providing a pure hardware solution, WHIPTAIL products have a data acceleration software layer. Not only do applications run faster, but data is easier to access. WHIPTAIL significantly accelerates databases, VDI and analytics and intelligence workloads, among many others. Our products increase the velocity of data, reduce energy and floor space consumption in the data center, ensure round-the-clock system availability and speed business operations by providing faster data analysis and report generation. As a result, [**WHIPTAIL customers**](http://whiptail.com/tags/customers/) are able to boost productivity (of staff as well as technology), to scale either up or down in response to varying market conditions and to lower the total cost of managing applications. WHIPTAIL offers modularity – products that satisfy current needs and products that can cost-effectively be added onto the initial investment to scale up as the business expands. At the smaller end of the range is _ACCELA_, a high-velocity 2U storage array with up to 12 terabytes of capacity to focus on key workloads that may be underperforming. Next in the range is _INVICTA_, a true enterprise-class, solid-state storage array. Using _ACCELA_ as fundamental building blocks, _INVICTA_ can scale up to 72 terabytes to provide high-performance, high-availability and fault tolerance throughout the data center. Also, _INVICTA_ consumes about 80% less power and 70% less floor space than a traditional storage system. At the top of the current range is _INVICTA INFINITY_ that can scale up to 360 terabytes of capacity to increase performance into millions of write and read operations per second and increase throughput to tens of thousands of gigabytes per second, all with ultra-low latency. IT professionals understand that the ability of systems to perform at the highest levels had been stifled by reliance on outdated mechanical disk drive technology. They are turning to [**WHIPTAIL’s 100% all-Flash arrays**](http://whiptail.com/products/) and custom-built solid-state storage to operate data centers at the highest transactional and analytic velocity. Why not have the entire enterprise running at a much higher level of performance, especially if doing so can [**save your business money, energy, time and space**](http://whiptail.com/products/benefits/)?
