Infortrend Optimizes EonStor GS U.2 Unified Storage Solution Featuring U.2 NVMe SSD

Infortrend Technology, Inc. has optimized EonStor GS U.2 enterprise scale-out unified storage solution featuring U.2 NVMe SSD.

It supports both block and file-level scale-out expandability to increase capacity and performance as storage needs grow.

EonStor GS unified SAN/NAS storage is designed for various enterprise applications, e.g., database, virtualization, media post-production, and file sharing. It offers capacity and performance in several ways. Initial deployment can start with 1xGS and, when needed, users add new GS to form a cluster with up to 4 appliances via scale-out. To enhance data processing with high IO/s and low latency, GS supports the U.2 SSD and upgrades performance up to 1000,000 IO/s and 22GB/s per appliance.

GS provides a single namespace for Windows, Linux, or macOS user access via CIFS and NFS protocols. IT management can be simplified with auto-balancing, which helps ensure that data is stored evenly on each GS in a cluster. For better cost-effectiveness, IT staff can expand all-flash U.2 GS with HDD JBOD, and let the auto-tiering feature migrate ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ data between high-performance SSD and budget-friendly HDD.

“For forward-looking enterprises seeking a competitive and cost-saving solution, we updated GS unified storage with support of scale-out expandability and U.2 SSD. Users can connect several GS into a cluster with optimized load balancing, increased I/Os, and tight data protection,” said Frank Lee, senior director, product planning.

To help the company‘s partners increase expertise and achieve profitability, the firm has updated its 2022 Reseller Partner Program, where partners receive advantages such as deal registration with price protection, access to demo machines, and more.
