means platform-independent file serving for a large number of users
with direct data access. The Celerra File Server is simply being attached
to the existing corporate network and enables UNIX and NT data sharing.
For efficient transfer of multi media data the Celerra Media Server
has been developed. Both systems are based on the intelligient Symmetrix
storage subsystem and are designed for highest performance and availability.
INFINISTORE VirtualDisk (IVD) has especially been developed for
backup and archiving of data-intensive applications like DMS, SAP
R/3, CAD/CAM, audio and video. As a Network Attached Storage (NAS)
device it is represented to the user as a logical hard disk drive
and permits the integration of all applications which can write
onto a hard disk.
