'CloudFusion', New File Storage Application for AWS.

Avere Systems introduced new file storage application named CloudFusion for Amazon Web Services (AWS). CloudFusion uses the performance of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) and the Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3). 
It brings same benefits (low latency, high performance, ease of installation and deployment) as a 'Virtual FXT Edge Filter', which was released by Avere in last November. Along with these, it uses access patterns and internal caching algorithms to cache user data on different tiers of Amazon storage. 


CloudFusion also delivers a NAS feature set which includes snapshots, encryption, compression, easy to use web-based GUI and runs these NAS applications on EC2.
CloudFusion is available from today on AWS marketplace. It comes with three week free trial. After that end-user software pricing will start at $0.99/hour for AWS r3.xlarge instances. Other services, EC2, EBS, S3 which are used by CloudFusion will be separately billed at AWS current rates.
