Nfina 9412R-HA

Nfina’s 9412R Hyperconverged solutions put information processing (Data Entry, Compute, Storage, Point of Sale) closer to your edge applications. With the Nfina 9412R-HA, you can improve security and compliance, achieve faster response times, create redundancy, reduce latency, lower cost, and complement your existing cloud computing infrastructure.

The Nfina 9412R-HA is an ideal candidate for an all-flash storage array (AFA) or for creating backup storage for a HA cluster and can be loaded with 12 SSD or HDD direct attach drives per node, alleviating the I/O bottleneck between high performance and capacity. It offers multiple backup and disaster recovery options to ensure data security and retention: Nfina-Store™  provides integration for local and offsite data backup and disaster recovery. Unlike many of our competitors, you can choose to store your offsite storage where you like; a colo, the cloud, or multiple geo-redundant cloud locations. Nfina-Store™ helps create and manage HA clusters and provides no single point of failure. Features include tiered RAM, unlimited snapshots with instant restore, compression and deduplication, and on and offsite data protection. Nfina-View™ software provides monitoring on-prem and cloud, failover, rollback, and DR testing. Failover and rollback are simple single click operations and do not require rebuilding and repopulating data.
