Nasuni launches encrypted, multi-cloud, versioned virtual NAS
- chime 17y agoBy any chance does it work with iSCSI or is it just regular SMB?
- jnoller 17y agoCurrently; the Filer works with regular CIFS. NFS support it on the roadmap.
- chime 17y agoI ask that because with iSCSI support, I can easily run all my VMWare ESX servers off the device. The VMs aren't that big (20-40GB each) and if it mirrors block-level to a remote location, then it saves small biz the cost of buying a SAN (20k-100k) expense. If it did iSCSI, I would buy this in a heartbeat.
- jnoller 17y agoI'll definitely share this feedback with the team, thank you.
- patrickgzill 17y agoMy guess is that it uses OpenSolaris in some form under the hood. Just like Nexenta does.
- prakash 17y agoThis seems more like a press-release. flagging it.
- jnoller 17y agoDisclaimer: I am an employee. While I linked to the press release; I felt that it was relevant to HN especially given that Amazon S3 just announced versioning for S3, this is a versioned, encrypted file system on top of S3, and other cloud storage vendors. Additionally; it's a startup using cool technology. Maybe I could have linked to: http://www.nasuni.com/resources/white-papers/ http://www.nasuni.com/resources/white-papers/ instead?
- DenisM 17y agoI suggest a 200 words version that explains exactly why we should care.
- arethuza 17y agoI initially thought this was a cool idea then went off it - I'm fairly happy using local storage on my home network backed up to multiple "cloud" locations (svn hosting, Carbonite and Mozy). This gives me speed to access stuff with a fairly high degree of resilience.
