Date:11/3/2008

l as other medical researchers, which were previously priced out of the market. By offering a sequencing service instead of the traditional instrument sales model, Complete Genomics is eliminating the operational, computational and resource limitations associated with large-scale DNA sequencing. As a result of its plans, Complete Genomics is facing unprecedented growth of genetic data sets, necessitating a storage solution that removes the costly capacity, performance and management constraints of traditional SAN and NAS systems.

"Complete Genomics' transformative service has the potential to significantly advance our understanding of a wide range of genetically-based, life-threatening illnesses, enabling accelerated progress in combating these diseases," said Steve Fitz, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Field Operations, Isilon Systems. "By using Isilon clustered storage to help maximize the value of its mission-critical data, Complete Genomics is demonstrating the tremendous scalability, performance and ease of management benefits possible with Isilon IQ in bioinformatics environments."

By deploying a highly scalable, high-performance, shared pool of Isilon IQ storage, Complete Genomics has simplified its research and development workflows, and reduced IT cost and complexity. Additionally, Isilon IQ, featuring the storage industry's only implementation of N+3 and N+4 data protection, provides Complete Genomics with the highest levels of data availability and reliability to ensure the integrity of its critical information.

Powered by OneFS, Isilon IQ X-Series delivers the industry's first single file system that unifies and provides instant and ubiquitous access to the rapidly growing stores of file-based data, setting the standard for scale out file storage. OneFS is a unified operating system software layer that powers all of Isilon's award-winning IQ family of clustered storage systems including the Isilon IQ 1920, 3000, 6000, 9000, 12000,
