Overview

Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance delivers leading performance and superior efficiency in enterprise-class network-attached storage (NAS) environments, accelerating business functions, and reducing complexity. This first application-engineered storage system provides unique integration points with Oracle Database which automate storage tuning and data lifecycle management, reduce capacity requirements, and lower TCO.

StorNext enables multiple Windows, Linux and Apple workstations to access shared block storage over a Fibre channel network. With the StorNext file system installed, these computers can read and write to the same storage volume at the same time enabling what is known as a "file-locking SAN." StorNext is used in environments where large files must be shared, and accessed simultaneously by users without network delays, or where a file must be available for access by multiple readers starting at different times.
