Technology refresh was never easier

Co-existence of more generations of

nodes within one cluster – still in a single

volume - filesystem and namespace

Technology refresh with no downtime and

no migration of data including WORM

data

NO EVER MIGRATION

Unmatched Data Protection and AvailabilityHighly resilient, clustered architecture

With higher level of protection e.g. N+3d:1d1n or

N+2, N+3

data 100% available if more disks or nodes failure

With protection N+2:1 data si 100%

available even if 2 disks or node failure
