Quote of the Month
“One of the challenges facing the data center is the multiplicity of storage systems it needs to manage. Even small data centers have two or three systems and enterprises are now counting more than a dozen systems. Solutions like iXsystems’ TrueNAS provide those organizations with a way to consolidate the number of storage systems they manage. The integration of Asigra as a service into the NAS makes the consolidation message even stronger.”
