| Modern enterprises handle massive volumes of files, often ranging from millions to billions. These files—such as documents, reports, media, and application data—are used on a daily basis. For seamless collaboration across teams, employees should be able to quickly access, share, and work on files in real time. |
| |
Challenges of Enterprise File Sharing |
| |
| As businesses increasingly depend on digital data, the need for high-capacity storage with fast, efficient file access is more critical than ever. Delays in file access, searching, listing, and opening can greatly impact productivity, leading to bottlenecks that disrupt operations and collaboration. |

Solution Advantages |
| |
|
|
|
Compared to the GS/GSe without SSD cache, it provides up to 300% better performance* for mixed workloads, such as accelerated search, listing, and opening for smaller files (several MB). It also accelerates search and listing for larger files. |
|
| |
30% Performance Improvement |
|
|
Compared to the previous SSD cache version, the updated SSD cache delivers approximately a 30% read performance improvement** in file-sharing workloads. |
|
| |
|
|
|
Complete data protection, including local replication (volume copy and snapshot) and remote replication to a remote GS appliance or public cloud. |
|
| |
|
|
|
Provides a cost-effective alternative to an all-flash storage. |
|
| |
| * |
In file-sharing workloads where file sizes range from several KB to several MB, GS 3024 with 4 SSDs provides 4.4K file operations per second vs. 1.1K file operations per second without SSD cache |
