Zadara zStorage is an enterprise data storage and management as a service solution designed to simplify complex data infrastructure. It supports any data type (block, file, object), any protocol (NFS, CIFS, FC, iSCSI, iSER, S3, Swift), and any location (on-premises, across clouds, or in a hybrid environment), delivering secure, dependable, and massively scalable storage. The service is built to support the most demanding workloads and complex data protection requirements, offering desired performance via Flash and/or Hard Disk based options. Unlike traditional storage solutions, Zadara operates on an OpEx-based, consumption model, meaning users pay only for what they use, with the ability to scale up or down in minutes without long-term commitments. The entire solution is fully managed by Zadara 24/7/365, freeing organizations from the burden of storage management. It leverages patented virtualization software running on industry-leading commodity hardware, providing a cost-effective and practical alternative to legacy vendor solutions. Zadara also offers specific cloud services for service providers, expanding its reach and utility within the IT ecosystem.
