With Flexential, you’ll be able to support essential IT demands like storing structured and unstructured large datasets, running analytics, and processing transitional and database workloads. Flexential offers both Shared Storage Solutions and Object-Based Storage (OBS) options that provide the flexibility you need to support different use cases inside your organization. Flexential’s shared storage solution uses a large storage area network (SAN) and divides it into hundreds of logical unit numbers (LUNs) to support multiple customers. This provides greater flexibility for the customer without the large capital outlay associated with purchasing a dedicated SAN. OBS is a cloud-based solution that is elastically scalable. You can easily access gigabytes or terabytes of storage as needed to meet your storage capacity requirements. Your data is accessible through simple REST APIs, customizable with any configuration of network-attached storage (NAS) to cloud and backed by our 100% uptime SLAs.
