Key Features

Automated Policy-Based Off-Load: Users can configure policies to automatically off-load files based on specific criteria to designated targets, such as secondary storage or cloud storage services. This feature enables cost-effective storage tiering by moving infrequently accessed files to cheaper storage options.

Transparent Data Access: When a file is off-loaded from the primary file server to target storage, Smart Filer leaves an industry-standard symbolic link in its place. Users and applications can continue to access the file seamlessly, as if it were still stored on the primary file server, without disrupting workflows or requiring manual intervention.

Zero-Downtime File Server Migration: This product automates the migration process during file server refresh, eliminating complexity and minimizing downtime. Users and applications have continuous access to data during the migration process, simplifying the transition to new file servers without impacting productivity.

Multi-Cloud Flexibility: The Smart Filer allows users to store data seamlessly in various storage infrastructure, including on-premises storage servers, Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, and S3-compatible providers. This feature offers flexibility in choosing the most suitable cloud storage provider for specific requirements, avoiding vendor lock-in and leveraging multiple cloud storage options for enhanced data management and cost optimization.
