Network Attached Storage (NAS)
A more viable option than DAS, Network Attached Storage is ideal for small but growing organisations. NAS is flexible in allowing multiple users easy and fast access to a single storage device.
Scalability is a less of a concern as an increasing amount of data can be easily catered for and accessed over a Local Area Network (LAN) without incurring additional infrastructure costs.
How it works…
NAS is a single purpose device that can be ‘plugged in’ to a network, meaning every computer and server on the network can directly access the storage device at any time.
Features...
- Easy to install, deploy and manage
- Fast data sharing between multiple workstations
- Highly reliable
- Low cost network solution, compared to SAN
Benefits...
- Accessibility Data is accessible from the entire LAN network, not just a single server.
- High Utilization NAS can be used to maximum capacity, providing storage for all servers on the network
- Scalability High density storage allows for data growth
- Central management Multiple NAS systems can be centrally managed, conserving time and resources
- Increases performance and productivity of your organisation by virtue of being easy and quick to access
- Integration Can be integrated with SAN storage
