New Quad-core hardware combined with exceptional performance of new LogLogic 4.9 software delivers biggest and fastest appliances to date

SAN JOSE, Calif. — February 16, 2010 —LogLogic®, the leader in security and log management, today unveiled the next generation of its core open log management technology, powered by the latestLogLogic 4.9software. In response to market demand for better scalability, more capacity and reduced carbon footprint, the new line of appliances is supplied on bigger, faster, more resilient hardware to deliver massive increases in log message processing, log message storage, connectivity and resiliency.

The new LogLogic products take advantage of the latest improvements in software technology—incorporating the most advanced software, faster processors, faster disks, more storage space and enhanced networking capabilities in the same or smaller footprint as before.

“More and more enterprises are seeing the value of having an open log management platform and centralized log data warehouse as a key infrastructure component of their IT environment,” said Guy Churchward, CEO of LogLogic. “Powered by our latest LogLogic 4.9 software, this new line of appliances has raised the bar for LMI performance and features. With higher message throughput, faster data retrieval, search and reporting, and longer-term archival of log information, this latest platform offers an unmatched enterprise-grade log management solution.”

With scalable new CPUs and new LogLogic software tuned to optimize disk and processor performance, customers will enjoy faster searches and reporting times in the new platform. Additionally, customers will be able to store a greater volume of log data on the appliances, allowing them to handle growing log data needs. Testing shows that LogLogic’s top-of-the-line LX appliance has gone from consuming 4,000 log records a second, to an average of 10,000, peaking at 130,000 in certain circumstances. Likewise, the ST range has jumped from consuming 75,000 log records per second, to an average of 150,000, peaking at 250,000.

This new platform is featured in the following new LogLogic appliances:

• LX range of log capture, reporting and alerting appliances: LX1020 and the LX4020, with the latter offering blazing performance with Intel’s Quad-Core technology, in addition to delivering 400 percent more hard disk capacity than its predecessor.
• ST range of log capture, archiving and forensics appliances: the ST1020, the ST2020-SAN and the ST4020, all of which are built on the same Quad-Core Intel chassis as the LX range with similar improvements in performance, memory, disk and connectivity. TheST2020-SANincludes a Qlogic FC SAN card for connection to world class-storage from the likes of Brocade and EMC.
• MX3020 appliance for combined collection, reporting, alerting, archival and forensics.
