Introduced in May 2005 as a newly developed network storage virtualization solution for large enterprises, Invista was awarded “Best Storage Virtualization” technology by InfoWorld. According to editors, Invista “preserves investments in existing hardware without sacrificing manageability or performance.”† Part of the accolade is based on Invista achieving an “Excellent” rating in a May 16, 2005 product review administered by InfoWorld Test Center analysts.
