Managed Server HSM, N series Edition

CaminoSoft's solution extends Managed Server functionality by providing the capability to migrate files from N series Filer network-attached storage devices to central storage pools, specialized content-addressed storage, and other N series subsystems.

Infinite Storage for Enterprise Data

Nearly all companies are experiencing an explosion in the demand for storage, driven particularly by space hungry applications like CAD, multimedia, computer graphics, document imaging, email and user-controlled directories. Meeting the demand for increased storage is only one aspect of this problem. Managing the data intelligently, growing the storage infrastructure cost-effectively, and conforming to regulatory mandates for data, while providing users with immediate access to all of their files are the real challenges.

N series Edition Offers a Cost-Effective Solution

CaminoSoft’s Managed Server HSM™ – N series Edition provides a straightforward, cost-effective solution for handling the complexities of N series data storage management. N series Edition offers all of the features of CaminoSoft’s standard Managed Server HSM, including support for multiple, off-the-shelf storage target devices. Whether used in a SAN or NAS environment, the combined storage options made available by the N series Edition provide a storage hierarchy capable of virtually infinite storage growth with increased data availability and data retention – while leveraging your existing storage investment.

N series Edition – How it Works

Like our standard Managed Server HSM solution, N series Edition enables the administrator to configure policies and usage of the “virtual” Central Storage Pool and migrate files residing in the N series environment that are infrequently accessed to the central pool. By leveraging N series’s FPolicy APIs, N series Edition allows migration of inactive files to a variety of target environments including N series Fibre and IP SAN, NAS as well as third party vendor environments including JBOD, tape library, EMC Centera, IBM Tivoli, Archivas, Hitachi HCAP and more. The policy-driven engine provides for “lights-out” operation while providing complete, transparent access by users to all of their data.
