platformsTest Platforms

Our load generation appliances are capable of executing complex traffic emulation at extreme loads and are currently available in three configurations:

  1. SwiftTest 3000 (1GigE)
  2. SwiftTest 5000 (10GigE)
  3. SwiftTest 6000 (8 Gb Fibre Channel)

user-interfaceUser Interfaces

 

  1. SwiftTest Enterprise: an intuitive web UI built for all user levels. It controls multiple SwiftTest appliances that can be leveraged by defined user groups.
  2. TDE (Test Development Environment): a graphical test development environment for easy and precise creation of tests
  3. TAF (Test Automation Framework): a set of scripting language APIs for integration and automation to provide the most flexibility when creating workloads and tests

protocolsProtocol Software Suites

Detailed performance optimized emulation of storage protocols to provide rich, highly accurate emulations of your storage workloads across:

NAS/File Protocols: SMB/CIFS, NFS

  • All major versions of the SMB and NFS protocols are supported including the latest SMB 3.0 dialect and version 4.1 of NFS.
  • Extensive low-level command and control options

SAN/Block Protocols: FC, iSCSI

  • Fine grain control over data traffic at the SCSI level
  • Data Integrity, Failover, I/O Performance

Cloud/Object: HTTP

  • Create real-world dynamic user and browser behavior
