NetApp enhances data management capabilities

MUMBAI:

Network Appliance Inc. today introduced a new line of products and services aimed at enhancing customers' data management capabilities.






Two new systems include the FAS6030 and the FAS6070, new flagship systems that greatly extend the breadth and scale of the NetApp storage systems portfolio.





An enhanced NetApp Manageability Software family and new Fibre Channel (FC) SAN capabilities also debuted today. In addition, two new services were announced: Premium Support Services for the FAS6070 and rapid deployment services for storage implementation.





The NetApp FAS6000 extends high performance and scalability for NetApp FAS line. It helps customers reduce the TCO of large-scale storage for business applications.



NetApp expressed hope that the new line of products and services would help it unseat EMC and HP for leadership of open systems storage in the enterprise data center.






Unlike competitive high-end storage systems such as the EMC Symmetrix, the FAS6000 has a modular storage design, making it easier to deploy as needed to increase business agility and reduce costs, the NetApp statement said.





The products and services announced today are immediately available.
