Easy Consolidation
IT environments are often deployed with multiple storage infrastructures to accommodate for various types of data and achieve respective service levels. The scattered boxes for direct-attached storage (DAS), storage area network (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS) configurations lead to poor utilization and complicated management. Infortrend offers EonNAS 5100 to support both file and block-based applications with a unified storage platform. EonNAS 5100U can simultaneously process data blocks transferred through IP and FC SAN and support file-sharing between Windows and Linux/Unix clients on Ethernet. Following the startup wizard, even IT generalists lacking storage expertise can easily initialize EonNAS 5100U to serve database, email and unstructured data while improving IT efficiency.
Simplified Management
Through an intuitive and user-friendly web-based interface, users can centrally configure, monitor, maintain and protect multiple EonNAS systems. EonNAS management software provides users with a complete system view ideal for monitoring long-term and real-time system status. Based on the analytic data, users can easily perform efficient tuning, accurate planning and quick troubleshooting. When any abnormal events are detected, the management software will automatically notify users so that proactive actions can be taken to prevent downtime. The comprehensive management features make it easy to optimize EonNAS 5100 for business production.
Flexible Scalability
The "scale as needed" flexibility of EonNAS 5100U allows users to future proof for tomorrow’s applications while satisfying their current needs. To increase performance, users can integrate low-latency SSDs for EonNAS systems to automatically enhance caching operations and in turn accelerate I/O processing. For capacity expansion, EonNAS 5100U can connect with expansion enclosures to accommodate a maximum of 84 drives. Its included thin-provisioning capability enables just-in-time resource allocation to optimize space utilization. Besides lowering total cost of ownership (TCO), the intelligent technology also simplifies management tasks of capacity planning and volume utilization tracking.
High Availability
To keep applications and services up and running, EonNAS 5100 is designed to operate with high-availability. Its redundant, hot-swappable hardware components of backend storage eliminate single point of failure. During drive failure, hardware-based RAID protection can ensure continuous accessibility to full integrity data. To protect valuable data sets against more critical threats, EonNAS 5100 also offers snapshot and replication functionality. In case the storage is damaged by logical errors, physical errors, or disasters, users are still able to obtain the highest data availability with minimized system downtime.
