Store User Files
The Solution: Create Windows user Shares in a cloud volume—with Nasuni, this is just as easy as working with local storage. The Nasuni Filer supports CIFS and Active Directory. It’s the familiar file server without any of its limitations. Start storing user files (MS Office documents, for example) in the cloud immediately.
The Nasuni Benefit: Maintain local performance even though your actual storage is off site in the cloud. No more worrying about capacity growth, backups, time-consuming migrations, or disaster recovery solutions. The Nasuni Filer includes all this at no extra cost. When users misplace files, you can recover their data within seconds by accessing past snapshots. If disaster strikes, your file system remains intact, and you will be able to access it within minutes.
Store Application Files
The Solution: Set up the Nasuni Filer as a storage target for your server-class applications.
The Nasuni Benefit: Off-site storage for your applications, with versioned backups and local file server performance. Expect applications to run just as they do against your existing file servers. No more anxiety over capacity growth, backups, or disaster recovery solutions for your application files. This is all included at no extra cost.
NAS Consolidation
The Solution: Consolidate your NAS environment into one simple, easy-to-manage Nasuni Filer running on one of your existing servers.
The Nasuni Benefit: Your costly, expanding NAS environment becomes a single, inexpensive, unlimited file server. No more out-of-space servers. You will never have to re-provision or carve out space for backups. The Nasuni Filer’s unlimited off-site storage expands as needed and eliminates the need for other disaster recovery solutions.
Off-Site Copies
The Solution: Keep a second copy of your files in the Nasuni Filer using your favorite disk-to-disk copy tools. On-site and off-site backups are automatic with the Nasuni Filer.
The Nasuni Benefit: Eliminate tape, virtual tape libraries, and costly backup-to-disk systems by keeping an off-site copy of your files in the cloud. Restore user files in seconds to any point in time. Recover from disaster in just a few minutes.
