Dallas, TX - November 5, 2010 - Hie Electronics introduces the TeraStack® Solution to the geospatial intelligence community. “The intelligence community can benefit greatly from the TeraStack Solution to manage and store critical long-term data,” says MGen Mike Lynch (USAF Ret), Hie Electronics Vice President of Government Sales and Business Development.

The TeraStack® Solution offers an energy efficient hierarchical storage management system comprised of an enterprise application server integrated with 78TB of online and nearline storage, and unlimited offline data storage, in a compact 15U unit.  Consuming only 600 watts of power, this “green” solution does not require special cooling or a raised-floor data center environment.

The TeraStack® Solution provides a turn-key system that can help solve many of the issues associated with the retention and management of critical GEOINT data.
