Data Storage Solutions – StorTrends 2512i
Architected for Performance
StorTrends 2512i is an affordable 2U, rack-mount storage appliance that offers support for both block and file data on a SSD Hybrid platform. It merges Ethernet based Storage Area Networks (IP-SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) on a single storage platform.
StorTrends 2512i supports iSCSI, enabling block applications like Microsoft® Exchange and Oracle® to be deployed or stored on the same server as traditional file services and storage. This system is designed with performance in mind, and includes features for enterprise-level storage management such as Advanced Snapshots, Volume Replication, Failover, WAN optimization and much more.
StorTrends 2512i has block and file data consolidation with true enterprise level features to departmental and SMB users. The StorTrends 2512i offers twelve hot- swappable drive bays with Enterprise SSD and NL-SAS HDD support, as well as highly distinguishing software features.
The Volume replication feature of the StorTrends 2512i allows data to be stored on multiple StorTrends appliances at multiple sites, for disaster recovery in the event of a catastrophe.
Asynchronous replication bundles I/Os within snapshots and sends them to the remote server, boosting network utilization efficiency and reducing bandwidth cost. When combined with the revolutionary WAN Data Services (WDS) feature included in the Asynchronous Replication module, the system employs data deduplication, compression and link optimization to reduce data transmission and bandwidth usage by several factors over conventional replication speeds.
The Volume replication feature of the StorTrends 2512i allows data to be stored on multiple StorTrends appliances at multiple sites, for disaster recovery in the event of a catastrophe.
StorTrends’ Advanced Snapshot capability features Redirect-on- Write(ROW) technology with near-zero performance degradation when writing or rolling back snapshots. Administrators can schedule up to 1,022 read-write and 1,022 read-only snapshots per volume, and up to 16,384
snapshots per box. A maximum of 256 volumes per appliance is supported.
