Next-generation IP Storage for Unified Data Management
Server virtualization. Digital content storage. Geophysical, medical, and satellite imaging. CAD/CAE. Sarbanes-Oxley.
Blade servers and grid computing. Web 2.0. Rich media.
These applications demand versatile consolidated storage to simplify IT operations.
These applications demand Nimbus unified IP storage systems.
With Nimbus unified IP storage systems, enterprises can:
- Reduce storage expansion costs by 50% compared to clustered iSCSI arrays
- Reduce hardware and software costs by 40% compared to iSCSI-only arrays
- Increase bandwidth by over 24x compared to clustered iSCSI arrays
- Capitalize on a 50x improvement in access times for I/O-intensive applications
- Reduce power/cooling costs by 75% compared to separate SAN and NAS devices
- Standardize on Ethernet throughout the enterprise to simplify IT management
Nimbus Breeze systems, featuring the HALO storage OS, can:
- Unify block and file storage for efficient and simple storage consolidation
- Deliver distinct storage tiers to enable application-optimized provisioning
- Increase storage bandwidth to improve performance and scalability

Intuitive, Training-free Administration
When first powered on, Breeze systems running HALO are ready for Web-based setup; no command line or serial connections are needed.
Users can quickly create storage pools, partition SAN targets or NAS volumes, and set access privileges without specialized training.
For first-time network storage administrators, context help shares best-practices for applications like Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, and VMware ESX.
Storage Virtualization for Flexible Capacity Management
With storage virtualization, administrators define storage pools based on tiers ranging from nearline storage for data archival to primary
storage for virtual machines and application servers.
Users can provision and expand volumes in seconds, add new physical storage non-disruptively, and repurpose existing storage to meet changing needs.
Tiers can even span enclosures so users can grow with a pay-as-you-grow approach.
Multi-protocol Features for Unified Block and File Storage
HALO provides unified iSCSI, CIFS, and NFS protocol support. iSCSI supports advanced features like SCSI Reserve/Release, Persistent Reservations,
and multi-pathing required for server virtualization and clustering.
ERL 2 provides robust iSCSI connections with data integrity checking, portal hopping, and automatic session reinstatement.
The NAS feature supports Microsoft Active Directory, easing integration into existing Windows domains.
Enterprise-grade Data Protection Made Simple
Virtual storage pools can be configured with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10 and 50. Snapshot and cloning features create schedulable and mountable
point-in-time images for instantly restoring individual files or reverting to a last-known good state.
Built-in synchronous and asynchronous replication provides disaster recovery at the sector-level to minimize WAN usage.
Automatic health monitoring ensures worry-free operation, while a graphical dashboard displays real-time and historical system performance.
Relieve the Burden of Software License Management
All HALO software features are included free-of-charge and with no incremental license fees for additional features or protocol support.
All Nimbus customers receive free software updates for the duration of their support agreement, including new features, not just maintenance releases.
