Traditional Data Protection Systems

“OneXafe system has an almost 3:1 TCO advantage”

“Hardware and software are priced separately and are often sourced from different vendors when using a traditional backup system architecture (Veeam Plus Data Domain, for example). This separation adds significantly to the cost when compared to OneXafe.”

Competitive Scale-out Data Protection Systems

“…the cumulative TCO for OneXafe is approximately half ...“

“…a customer still pays separately for hardware, software, and data replication. Again, in the case of OneXafe, all hardware, software, and replication functionality are included in the price a customer pays for the system which is significantly lower than either of the two competing systems modeled ...”

OneXafe Benefits

CONVERGED STORAGE
OneXafe is a converged data platform that unifies enterprise-class data protection with scale-out storage in an easy-to-use, configurable solution. By integrating backup and recovery with scale-out storage from the ground up, OneXafe eliminates the complexity related to managing and protecting data. It removes the need for siloed solutions, minimizes costs incurred from standalone storage hardware and backup software solutions, and eliminates redundancy in management.

BACKUP & RECOVERY
OneXafe delivers industry-leading recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs) for premium data integrity and business continuity. It ensures service reliability and assures that every machine is recoverable according to a specific backup, retention, and replication SLA.

Reliable Recovery - Ensure data integrity with automated, advanced reverification of
backup images and with inflight verification of data. Recover every single time with a
dependable complete system recovery.

Instant Recovery: Boot backup images as VMs in milliseconds with VirtualBoot IO readahead
technology without waiting for recovery to complete and without the need for storage vMotion. Recover files and folder in seconds and entire systems in minutes.

Flexible Recovery: The ability to recover to dissimilar HW or virtual environments,
ensures that recovery is timely and quick by utilizing the resources at hand and not waiting
for any specific resources.

SCALE-OUT Network Attached Storage (NAS)
Scaling Network Attached Storage (NAS) capacity can be as easy as popping a storage hard drive into the OneXafe appliance. As business requirements for increased data storage or performance change, OneXafe is extremely agile; simply add any number of disk drives, at any time, and in any capacity to meet your needs. Provision only the storage capacity you need, when you need it without complex network storage capacity planning or over-provisioning.

LOWEST COST OF OWNERSHIP
Our simple, transparent and all-inclusive pricing model with rich datacenter-class features makes OneXafe the most affordable Network Attached Storage (NAS) device in the market. Acquisition costs for StorageCraft solutions are 50% to 100% lower than that of comparable Network Attached Storage (NAS) solutions. OneXafe is an order of magnitude simpler to operate and manage, keeping your operating costs an order of magnitude lower.

SIMPLICITY REDEFINED
Storage provisioning is done with zero-configuration. There is no need to manually manage network data storage pools, RAID sets, or volumes with OneXafe. System resiliency from dual disk or even dual network attached storage appliance failure is built-in and automatic. Many of the day-to-day data storage management tasks are handled automatically. All the included features are "on" by default and you never need complex configuration. You can implement disaster recovery with real-time replication in just 4 clicks using OneSystem’s intuitive web interface.

BRING YOUR OWN DRIVES (BYOD)
StorageCraft OneXafe provides you ultimate in flexibility with the ability to buy your own disks or hard drives at retail prices then use them accordingly within OneXafe. This way, you will not be locked into 10X premiums for commodity hard disks. You can mix-and-match any drive types (SAS, SATA) and different capacities within the same appliance with zero-configuration. Drives can be removed and replaced on-the-fly while the file system restores the desired levels of data protection automatically.

ENTERPRISE FEATURES
StorageCraft OneXafe provides you with rich enterprise-class storage reduction features such as inline variable length deduplication and compression to ensure the best network attached storage (NAS) utilization. It provides multi-site replication for easy disaster recovery implementation. Optional data protection feature allows for a hyper-converged secondary storage configuration.
