The Nasuni filer is software that provides a CIFS and NFS gateway interface to files stored in the cloud and looks like a regular network-attached storage (NAS) filer to applications and servers. It comes as a VMware virtual machine and needs a 500GB disk cache, which it uses to deduplicate data going to the cloud and rehydrate it on the way back, if the original data is no longer in cache.
