NetApp FAS Storage Appliances
CONSOLIDATE FOR A VARIETY OF WORKLOADS
For storage consolidation, NetApp systems are extremely versatile. You can simultaneously access file- and block-level application data with concurrent connections to Fibre Channel (FC) and IP networks. With NetApp, you can consolidate and serve data for a wide variety of workloads, including:
- Business applications
- Enterprise content management
- Technical applications
- Home directories
Netapp FAS systems provide scalable, high-availability storage for your Windows®, UNIX®, and Linux® servers. You can access your data over FC and iSCSI storage area networks (SANs) and access files using standard protocols for network-attached storage (NAS). Because NetApp systems use both high-performance and high-density disk drives, in either homogeneous or mixed storage configurations, you get a choice of tiered storage options. When it comes to storage consolidation, you can use NetApp systems to span both SAN and NAS environments and meet your primary and secondary storage needs.
