Applications
iSCSI software allows GuardianOS powered Snap Servers to function as block level storage over Ethernet in addition to file services provided by file-based network protocols.
Microsoft Exchange/SQL Server, Oracle, and other applications that generate significant data growth can be consolidated on a Snap Server through the use of iSCSI.
Snap Servers can easily provision storage between file and block services allowing greater flexibility with storage investments in Snap Server expansion.
