HYDRAstor, which is part of NEC’s Smart Enterprise solutions that are designed to improve the way people work and communicate, was selected Silver Product of the Year winner in last year’s Storage magazine/ SearchStorage.com Backup Hardware category, Interop Storage Winner at Interop and Gold Winner in Network Products Guide 2015. NEC HYDRAstor has all-in-one features to protect, access and manage data and is therefore considered as the perfect platform to boost the Enterprise Digital Transformation.
Virtualization simplifies IT system platforms by consolidating servers and storage systems and separates software lifecycle from hardware lifecycle, freeing IT managers from complex compatibility work. Adding virtual appliances of backup storage into the picture helps organizations by eliminating separate hardware management and providing business agility.
The Virtual Appliance is the perfect companion for NEC HYDRAstor. It can be deployed as a Cloud extension, a remote office local service or at the periphery of a physical HYDRAstor. It can be used also as a standalone entity or networked with other VAs. The HYDRAstor Virtual Appliance is also perfect for the SMB market segment with generally less data volume.
The NEC HYDRAstor VA can be easily deployed into virtual environments and adds deduplication storage capability and WAN-optimized replication features for off-site backup. Key benefits include:
· Universal Dedupe Storage for Small Environment (1TB up to 16TB)
· Easy Deployment Anywhere in Virtual Environment (VMware, Hyper-V)
· Disaster Recovery Solution for Small Sites/Branches with WAN-optimized Replication
· Perfectly fits in Cloud Service Platform
