Nexenta Storage Appliance is designed and built to
operate as a 2nd tier storage alongside
pre-existing commercial storage, providing online
continuation of data for months and years, with
tapes relegated to archival purposes only. The
appliance is targeted for 2nd-tier NAS and iSCSI
applications requiring extremely low cost storage
as well as dramatically simplified provisioning,
expansion, backup, replication, and archiving. It
can also be used as a primary NAS in businesses
that wish to expand at closer to commodity
pricing. It supports unlimited snapshots, snapshot
mirroring (replication), and easy management of
extremely large storage pools.
