D Link Unfurls ShareCenter PRO Unified Storage Systems

Posted on November, Friday 18, 2011 By itVAR News Network

D-Link has released a unified storage system which offers small and medium businesses a multitude of options for managing and securing data on their networks. The D-Link ShareCenter Pro DNS-1100-04 tackles the ever-increasing need for data consolidation and sharing.

The D-Link ShareCenter Pro systems offer considerable benefits over convention NAS devices and help to eliminate the worry of over or under-buying storage capacity through the use of virtual disks. Additional benefits include support for virtualization, flexible storage allocation, extensive backup options, in addition to simplified provisioning and centralized management. Most importantly, ShareCenter Pro systems can function as a NAS, while simultaneously acting as an external iSCSI storage device for application servers such as Exchange, SQL, and Apache.

“With the need for growing data storage requirement, small & medium businesses these days are looking out for a central storage location for sharing or backing up data.  D-Link ShareCenter Pro allows serving multi-tenant applications making it a perfect choice for businesses that require a flexible platform with plenty of room for expansion” said Mr. Tushar Sighat, CEO - D-Link (India) Limited.

Using an array of virtual disks, a master ShareCenter Pro can connect to other iSCSI targets on the network which are then seen as multiple discreet volumes within the system. When storage is maxed out for a particular volume, administrators can simply add another ShareCenter Pro to the network to augment the available free space.

ShareCenter Pro systems are reinforced with dedicated hardware acceleration engines and high-performance core processors for heavy daily business applications. Backup time can be greatly reduced through a convenient Volume Snapshot feature which captures a disk image at a specific point in time, enabling immediate restoration whenever needed. Likewise, provisioning and management is straightforward, trivializing the often arduous process of transferring and replicating data.

D-Link ShareCenter Pro 1100-04 is currently available all across India through D-Links wide network of National Distributors Ingram Micro & Redington and Business Distributors present across the country at an estimated street price of Rs. 31699/- with 1 year warranty.
