Nimbus Unveils iSCSI SAN/NAS With SSD: Page 3 of 3

Up to now, Nimbus has been specialized in lower-end iSCSI targets and small systems. The San Francisco- and Chennai, India-based vendor has been aggressive in distributing its free iSCSI target software, which now has over 10,000 takers worldwide. Isakovich says that roughly 220 customers have purchased Nimbus hardware, including Agilent, Bank of America, and the Smithsonian.

With the introduction of the H series, Nimbus plans to turn a corner. While Isakovich won't give out funding numbers, he claims the company has been profitable for about six months, and the 50 present employees will be joined by others as the startup builds out a channel presence.
