Economic Benefits

Data is growing exponentially in size and complexity, challenging organizations to improve how they store, manage and protect all their data without increasing budgets or staff. DATABeast overcomes these challenges by extending enterprise services to all digital assets, while reducing storage and management costs

Reduce CAPEX by up to 50%
DATABeast is a complete system including all required storage services. Most storage systems require that you pay for “extras” to perform snapshot backup to disk, replication to another site or mirroring across multiple storage systems, with DATABeast everything is integrated and included with no additional costs, "one solution, one price".
 
 
Cut power and cooling costs by up to 60% without compromising application performance
DATABeast uses up to 60% less power. Standard array based storage, whether idle or serving data, require large amounts of power and cooling. Nexsan’s patented AutoMAID technology significantly reduces power and cooling usage without compromising application performance.
 
 
Conserves data center space by 2.5 times
Over 2.5 times more capacity per rack than traditional 14 and 16 bay storage systems. With 42 drives in only 4U of rack space, Nexsan DATABeast is a leading storage consolidation solution for optimizing data center space.
 
 
Cut the cost of adding capacity by up to 50%
Most traditional storage solutions force you to pay for performance and licenses when all you’re adding is capacity. DataBeast scales capacity independently, no need to re-invest in management software, capacity, server or application licenses or unnecessary performance if all you need is more storage. Whether you add a few terabytes or petabytes, scale the DATABeast at the price of disk storage.
Increase performance without unnecessary costs
Most appliance based storage solutions have you invest in both performance and capacity, even if you only need more performance. DATABeast scales performance independently, providing you the flexibility to invest in performance without investing in un-needed capacity. Moreover, if you need more capacity, simply add more DATABeast storage systems to your DATABeast solution.
 
Deploy and use within hours
Building a SAN can take days or weeks: selecting and purchasing all the components, mounting systems, formatting storage, zoning ports, loading software, configuring failover and cabling racks. This takes time and resources not to mention the delays in dealing with interoperability issues and multiple service departments. DATABeast eliminates these issues and problems with a pre-mounted, cabled, configured, tested and proven SAN that is built to order. Roll in, plug in, and you’re ready to create and assign resources for production.
