Consolidate multiple Nexsan SAS and SATA storage systems into a single highly managed solution that can grow to several petabytes, addressing different applications and providing tiered storage;
Create custom volumes that precisely address the needs of individual applications, eliminating storage waste;
Use thin provisioning to maximize storage efficiency and eliminate manual volume expansion;
Build large 16TB and 64TB volumes across multiple storage resources;
Migrate data between old and new storage resources within the pool without service disruption;
Grow capacity freely to multiple petabytes without any key restrictions;
Integrate and use DATABeast features with pre-existing / legacy Nexsan storage systems;
Provide block and file (NFS / CIFS) services from the same solution;
Create multiple, persistent, incremental snapshots to recover deleted or inconsistent data to a previous point in time;
Take advantage of Microsoft VSS (Virtual Shadow Service) to make data consistent snapshots;
Use mirroring to maintain an exact real-time copy of production data and volumes locally or remotely across a DWDM or dedicated Fibre Channel connection;
Provide disaster recovery by replicating some or all data and volumes to another DATABeast located at a remote site across an IP LAN, MAN or WAN;
Ensure continuous access during software upgrades or component outage with active / active independent and redundant DATABeast Controller nodes and connectivity infrastructure;
Eliminate down time with highly available storage systems equipped with redundant controllers, power supplies and connectivity;
Reduce power consumption and cooling costs with AutoMAID (MAID 2.0);
Add additional DATABeast controller pairs to double performance and responsiveness;
Deploy DATABeast within hours with preinstalled and preconfigured racks;
