NexentaStor is a fully featured NAS/SAN software platform with capabilities that meet and exceed the capabilities of legacy storage systems. NexentaStor continues to build on its position as an alternative to expensive, vertically integrated, proprietary storage technologies, saving customers 70-80% over proprietary solutions.

NexentaStor helps organizations implement high-performance, yet cost-effective data storage solutions with features such as inline deduplication, unlimited snapshots and cloning, unlimited file size, and high-availability support. In addition, NexentaStor functionality includes full integration with virtualization approaches, even in mixed vendor environments.

NexentaStor Features

• 128-bit File System: ZFS-based technology provides the most scalable and flexible 128-bit file system.
• Unlimited Storage Capacity: Designed for large-scale growth with unlimited snapshots and copy-on-write clones.
• Unlimited File Size: While most legacy solutions limit the size of the file system, there are no such limitations with ZFS.
• Unified Appliance: Support for NAS (NFS, CIFS WebDAV, FTP) and support for SAN (iSCSI & FC) means flexibility.
• Data Deduplication & Native Compression: Inline data deduplication and compression reduce the use of primary storage.
• Hybrid Storage Pools: Exploit I/O cache to accelerate read & write performance—SSD.
• Integrated Snapshot Search: Perform indexing & Boolean searches from the file system to search for files within snapshots.
• Heterogeneous Block & File Replication: Synchronous or asynchronous replication for easy disaster recovery.
• Block-level Mirroring: Setup remote backups and disaster recovery at off-site locations
• Simplified Disk Management: Manage disks and JBODs using either command line or NexentaStor Management Viewer (NMV).
• Total Product Safety: Proactive, automated alert mechanisms send alerts when configuration deviates from "Golden Image" (best configuration).
• VM Integration: VMware, XEN, Hyper-V
• End-to-End Data Integrity: No silent data corruption
