Datasheet: ICON Manager

Xiotech's ICON Manager has completely changed the storage management landscape, providing the easiest storage and server administration ever available.

ICON Manager is the first and only user interface to bring storage management and storage-related server administration together in one place. Even novice administrators can effortlessly manage storage just as they do Windows volumes. Creating volumes and assigning them to servers and virtual machines (VMs) is a simple point-and-click operation from a single console.

The innovation does not stop there. ICON Manager is the only storage management platform designed on an industry-standard Web Services foundation, providing seam less integration with other Web Services-enabled programs, such as Java, Visual Basic, and Windows PowerShell. With the ICON Services Software Development Kit (SDK), you can easily customize reports and automate storage functions to meet your unique needs. Web Services also enables Xiotech to deliver advanced capabilities faster than would otherwise be possible—thus evolving the interface to meet your needs for years to come.
