Managed Storage
As the amount of video, audio and data files continue to grow, businesses face many issues today as they attempt to build or grow their storage infrastructure. Factors such as administration costs, downtime, device management tasks, and backup and recovery procedures are just a few key areas to consider when planning your storage infrastructure. To get the best performance and reliability from any storage infrastructure, it needs to be scalable, flexible and have efficient consolidation and availability.
As part of Internap’s® Managed Solution offering, Internap Managed Storage provides customers with a cost-effective alternative for the storage of their large media libraries or data files. Scalable
Internap Managed Storage solutions can scale with your media and data needs by providing the flexibility to grow and expand at your request – eliminating the need to forecast long-term storage requirements. Our highly scalable architecture provides up to one petabyte of storage per data center. Greater Data Availability
By employing the use of dual-parity RAID, Internap Managed Storage safeguards against data loss even if two hard drives fail at once. We provide application-level recovery in minutes, not hours, upon failure or user error so you can be confident that your data is constantly protected, readily available and always there. Flexible Multi-Protocol Data Access
Internap Managed Storage provides remote data access via common Internet file system (CIFS) and network file system (NFS) enabling fast, simple and reliable network data access overcoming the constraints of operating system preference or legacy investments. HTTP access is also available upon request and requires the use of Internap Managed Servers with a minimum of one web server. Efficient Consolidation
To simplify your storage infrastructure, Internap Managed Storage solutions provides storage for many applications on a single Network Attached Storage (NAS) platform, creating centralized and efficient management, while boosting performance and data accessibility. Predictable Reliability
Our managed storage solution utilizes a network-based optimization service, Performance IP™, which delivers unflinching reliability, dominant network performance and superior client support. Internap is the only company to offer you redundant, high-speed connections to all the major Internet backbones, ensuring operational continuity by routing around network congestion, poor performing links or disabled providers. The result is a network that consistently runs at peak efficiency for you and your customers.
