Pantera Series Clustered NAS
Industry's
highest ROI
ONStor Pantera Clustered NAS features a breakthrough architecture that combines
n-way clustering, virtual servers, and single-pool storage to deliver the
industry's simplest, most efficient storage solution. Compared with other
enterprise NAS solutions, Pantera costs about half of much to buy and takes far
less time to manage. In high-growth environments, the savings add up further
thanks to Pantera's disruption-free linear scaling model.
Built for consolidation
Purpose-built for large-scale server and storage
consolidation, Pantera lets you start with an affordable entry configuration
then scale seamlessly as requirements grow. In a full configuration, Pantera
Clustered NAS can accommodate over 20,000 users, petabytes of data, and can
deliver throughput up to 2.4GB per second, enough performance to accommodate
64,000 simultaneous broadband-quality video streams.
Robust data protection
Integrated snapshot capabilities let you maintain point-in-time images to guard
against deleted or corrupted files. The optional Data Mirror software provides
replication to a remote Pantera for data archiving or disaster recovery
purposes.
N-way clustering for scalable performance
Your performance requirements are certain to change over time. With fully
active-active n-way clustering, Pantera lets you respond instantly. Add
throughput in minutes simply by adding nodes. There's no user or data migration
required. And, Pantera delivers linear performance scalability. So every node
provides the same high throughput as the first node.
Single pool storage for scalable capacity
Need more storage space quickly? Just add capacity to the single-pool- storage
and it becomes available to all applications and users. A Fibre Channel link
provides shared connectivity between all nodes and all storage capacity,
eliminating the requirement for time-consuming data migration or storage
redistribution when capacity is added.
Virtual servers for granular resource management
ONStor Pantera includes integrated virtual servers to combine the simplicity of
single-pool resources with the granular management of individual storage
devices. Virtual servers are virtual NAS devices within the physcial ?lers.
Portable across nodes, they make it simple to load balance and transparently
scale performance. You can deploy new servers in minutes to get users or
applications up and running. And because you precisely control the resources,
you can accommodate each application's specific requirements for performance,
availability, and data protection.
Tiered storage to meet application needs
ONStor Pantera is available with fast 15K SAS and cost-effective SATA disk. For
performance-sensitive applications, SAS combines the blazing performance of
enterprise-class disk with the efficiency of a direct-connect high-speed
interface. For cost-sensitive deployments, SATA storage delivers data density
and low power consumption. ONStor Pantera allows both SAS and SATA to be
combined within a single storage environment, so you can deploy applications on
the right storage for your needs.
Powerful and efficient
Built on ONStor's proven EverON software platform, Pantera Clustered NAS
delivers scalability and performance from n-way clustered filers that are highly
efficient. Each filer delivers up to 300MB of throughput, or up to 36,000
operations per second - on just 160 watts of power. Up to eight filers may be
included in a single cluster. Four Pantera models allow you to match the
performance delivery to your application requirements. All four models feature
advanced capabilities such as virtual servers, AutoGrow, and integrated
snapshots.
Enterprise storage for superior reliability
Pantera storage arrays integrate enterprise features such as dual hardware
controllers and hot standby disks to ensure the highest levels of data
availability. User selectable options including RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 10, or 50 let
you match availability and performance with your application requirements.
