Simplify Infrastructure and Management for Mid-range Enterprise
The TrioNAS LX consolidates NAS and IP-based iSCSI SAN device to reduce hardware requirements, and allows users to link these to services such as Amazon S3 cloud storage to easily backup data into the cloud and, with just one click, disaster recovery can be fulfilled.
TrioNAS LX is Qsan's high-end unified storage model with inbuilt Intel® Xeon CPU. TrioNAS LX systems offer excellent performance with hardware RAID and SSD caching for business-critical applications. To provide better file data sharing, it supports CIFS/SMB 2, NFS v3/v4, AFP 3.3, FTP & SFTP, WebDAV, and iSCSI. The rack-mount NAS systems offer always-on disk configurations to free customers from any abnormal shutdown in line with ZFS' ability to avoid inconsistencies of data.
The patent-pending UnifiedAUTH technology is that any OS client (Windows, Linux, Mac, FTP, and WebDAV) and iSCSI CHAP can log onto the TrioNAS LX device through a Microsoft Active Directory with a single log-in. With UnifiedAUTH, IT administrators can just manage employees' accounts by Windows AD, while end-users can easily use their Windows AD ID and password to login via clients of any popular OS.
TrioNAS LX software also provides great storage efficiency with DeDup, thin provisioning and compression that help enterprises store more data at less cost and to greatly enhance the efficiency to the IT infrastructure. TrioNAS LX has BBM (battery backup module) to keep cache data safe in the event of power outage even if the companies do not possess UPS facilities.
With the file-sharing and virtualization advantage, TrioNAS LX best suits applications like medical and health care, academic organizations, and remote working environments. For more details, please visit: http://www.qsantechnology.com/en/trionaslx.php
