Why a bridge when I already have a server?
System administrators often turn to servers as the go-to answer for challenges that come up in the data center, especially for making data available for applications in different locations.
While it seems counterintuitive, servers are not built to move data efficiently, requiring multiple ‘hops’ as data is moved in and out of registers and system memory, which slows everything down. Moving data also consumes valuable CPU processing bandwidth, which can prevent servers from handling other, more complex operations. Servers are also expensive to maintain – licensing, power, cooling, updates and the inevitable upgrades.
ATTO XstreamCORE intelligent bridges change the game, redefining data center storage
A purpose-built, cost-effective data movement platform, XstreamCORE works hand-in-hand directly with storage resources to efficiently move data to where it’s needed.

XstreamCORE – The Answer for More Efficient Data Backup Architectures
Streamlined Management
Multiple functions can be consolidation into a single, easy-to-manage appliance. Rather than juggling various components and configurations, users can enjoy a streamlined setup that requires minimal maintenance and oversight.
Enhanced Connectivity
Seamless connectivity for shared SAN disk & tape infrastructures. Eliminating separate backup servers allows organizations to achieve faster and more reliable data transfers between storage devices, optimizing backups.
Improved Performance
Efficient design & advanced features ensure high-speed data transfers and minimal latency, enhancing system performance. Organizations can experience faster backup and restore times, reducing downtime and improving productivity.
Better ROI
Reduced hardware and maintenance expenses associated with traditional backup server environments. With a simplified setup and fewer components to manage, organizations can allocate resources more efficiently and achieve a lower total cost of ownership.
Connecting data centers – clusters don’t have to be complicated
Making your storage sharable over long distances while still retaining the levels of responsiveness, availability and reliability your customers demand doesn’t need to be complicated. XstreamCORE intelligent bridges act as an access point for local storage to connect to storage networks, simplifying network configuration and providing additional flexibility.
They are also built for the enterprise – over 50,000 are deployed in global data centers. XstreamCORE isolates data and management functions so that important data is moved across the network without interruption. We also provide analytical insights that can be used to improve network management and control, allowing administrators to identify problems before, well, they become problems.
Don’t take our word for it, try it for yourself and discover what Fortune 100 companies already know – XstreamCORE is a cost-effective way to scale your storage in the data center. Give us a call to learn more and to take a test drive.
From the box to moving data in less than an hour
Whether it’s one of our standard products or something more customized for your particular ecosystem, XstreamCORE bridges are easy to install and integrate, giving your storage networks a performance boost in less time than it takes to eat lunch. Because they are based on a common hardware architecture, XstreamCORE bridges are easily upgraded to support the latest technologies which helps you save money by avoiding costly qualification and forklift upgrades.
Advanced Tech Boosts Data Transfers
XstreamCORE uses xCORE™ and eCORE™ technologies to optimize flash capabilities with almost no delay, ensuring faster data access. xCORE handles the data path, while eCORE processes non-data requests in the background.
ATTO Celerity Fibre Channel HBAs deliver the fastest data throughput available for today’s most demanding Storage Area Network environments.
