Microsoft Storage Spaces

NetApp ONTAP Select offers robust enterprise storage services that are easily deployed on your choice of commodity hardware from the comfort of your own data center. It combines the best of the cloud, in terms of agility and granular capacity scaling, with the flexibility, resilience, and locality of on-premises storage. ONTAP Select converts a server’s internal disk drives, NVMe, SSD or HDD, as well as HCI and external array storage, into an agile, flexible storage system with many of the same benefits offered by dedicated storage systems based on NetApp® ONTAP® data management software. Spin up storage resources with cloudlike agility from start to serving data in just minutes. Move and replicate data easily with consistent management across your data fabric. Dynamically add capacity and scale performance to meet changing business needs. And deploy Extreme Edge for mobile or autonomous vehicles, remote industrial environments, and tactical field deployments.

Create cloud-integrated hybrid storage that works with your existing network-attached storage (NAS) and Azure Blob Storage. This on-premises caching appliance optimizes access to data in your datacenter, in Azure, or across a wide-area network (WAN). A combination of software and hardware, Microsoft Azure FXT Edge Filer delivers high throughput and low latency for hybrid storage infrastructure supporting high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.Scale-out clustering provides non-disruptive NAS performance scaling. Join up to 24 FXT nodes per cluster to scale to millions of IOPS and hundreds of GB/s. When you need performance and scale in file-based workloads, Azure FXT Edge Filer keeps your data on the fastest path to processing resources. Managing data storage is easy with Azure FXT Edge Filer. Shift aging data to Azure Blob Storage to keep it easily accessible with minimal latency. Balance on-premises and cloud storage.
