The NetApp V3100 Series heterogeneous storage virtualization system is essential to managing enterprise applications for business and technical applications across multiple environments.
The NetApp® V3100 series storage virtualization system delivers scalability, consolidation, versatility, and high availability. Leverage dynamic virtualization across your existing infrastructure while supporting your expanding business applications.
NetApp V3100 Key Points:
- Scale to more than 800TB of capacity on a single architecture and management interface.
- Gain heterogeneous virtualization that supports multiple storage vendors.
- Consolidate storage for hundreds of applications and multiple standard protocols.
- Attain application-level availability: recover in minutes, not hours.
Scale your system in a single architecture and management interface for multiple storage arrays. This will allow your storage administrator to manage your continued growth without learning a new system.
Consolidate with our Data ONTAP® 7G operating system to create volumes that can be either dynamically expanded or contracted. This reduces the need for spare capacity, improves your business efficiency, and reduces data management complexity.
Capitalize on NetApp high availability and disaster recovery capabilities of the V3100, enabling you to access and recover data instantly with minimal performance impact.
