NAKIVO Backup & Replication v10.11 has expanded backup, recovery, and monitoring capabilities:
Nexsan has downsized its NV10000 unified array with an entry-level NV6000 for small and medium business customers and added immutable snapshots to its Unity OS. The NV10000 was launched in April 2022 and is a 2RU x 24-slot chassis extensible with up to eight JBODS with a maximum of 480 drives. It supports both disk and SSD, with a FASTier SSD caching facility, and can be deployed in an all-flash configuration. Nexsan also supplies E-series high-density/high-capacity and Beast high-density arrays, and the Assureon archival array.
Andy Hill, Nexsans EVP, said in astatement: If data is the new oil, it is more imperative than ever to make sure you protect your organizations data from being siphoned off by the unscrupulous.The latest release of the Unity OS, v7.0, adds an immutable snapshot feature. It already had S3 object-locking support and disk-to-disk-backup-capabilities via Assureon integration.
The NV6000 chassis is twice the size of the NV10000 enclosure at 4RU with 60 drive bays. There can be two 4RU JBOD expansion chassis, taking the drive count total to 180. The base chassis holds a maximum of 1.12PB raw capacity while adding in the two expansion JBODs takes that to 3.36PB. The bigger NV10000 goes up to 9.6PB with disk drives and 368PB with NVMe SSDs.
Data access protocols consist of SAN (Fiber Channel, iSCSI), NAS (NFS, CIFS, SMB 1.0 to 3.0, FTP) and S3 object. Connectivity support includes 16/32GB FC, and 10/25/40/100GbE. There is up 20GB/sec bandwidth and two redundant controllers, redundant power supplies and RAID.
NAKIVO tells us: The Unity NV6000, designed as a mid-tier unit, caters to the needs of small to mid-market end-users. This decision aligns with our commitment to providing cost-effective solutions without compromising quality. Our NV10000 model, equipped with NVMe SSDs, is ideal for users with higher performance requirements. Notably, the NV10000 remains competitively priced, typically about 30% less than similar offerings from Pure, NetApp, and Isilon. By differentiating the NV6000 and NV10000 in this manner, we ensure that our product lineup meets a diverse range of customer needs while maintaining exceptional value in both segments.
