Enterprise Class Storage - Low Cost NAS Prices

NASg uniquely enables low cost, low powered NAS devices to be combined into a powerful storage grid. By moving the storage processing from the low powered storage nodes and distributing this across a grid of high powered clients, NASg eliminates up to 80% of the cost of an enterprise storage system while increasing the overall performance, scalability and reliability.

Leverage Existing Infrastructure - Avoid "Fork Lift" Upgrades

Storage vendors will happily "consolidate" your storage infrastructure. Organizations with storage sprawl reach the point where they must make a major investment in a storage platform to consolidate the sprawl of servers - which are then fork lifted out. NASg allows organizations to leverage their existing infrastructure by combining storage silos into a Gridstore. Existing storage silos become another node in the Gridstore while their data is spread across the grid to eliminate the single point of failure and increase performance.

Eliminate the Cost of Vendor Lock in

Beware of "entry level" systems. Proprietary hardware vendors have a vested interest to get you started. Once on a proprietary storage platform, its hard to get off and becomes more and more expensive for each "modular" upgrade, expansion product, software add-on and so on. NASg is an open storage platform available from multiple hardware vendors so you are never locked in and always in a position to negotiate.

Eliminate the Cost of Over Provisioning

Traditional storage systems require administrators to allocate storage to a volume upfront. A significant amount of pre-paid storage capacity sits idle waiting for the day it will be required. This also consumes power, administration and maintenance before it is ever used. NASg eliminates over provisioning through its building block approach to storage that allows you to add capacity on-demand. This saves both upfront capital plus the operating capital for storage capacity that is not required now.
