Proven Simplicity - "Set and Forget" Data Services
XEVO, a storage management system with intuitive GUI designs, helps to save time
in storage deployment considerably. XEVO also delivers enterprise storage features
including complete RAID level protection, RAID EE with fast rebuild, thin provisioning,
SSD cache, auto-tiering, and more. With the help of an intuitive dashboard and
reporting system, managers can analyze business usage and monitor storage status
in real time.
High Availability and Enterprise Reliability
With the exponential growth of data, fast, stable, and easy to manage have become
the foundation of modern IT. The XCubeSAN series provides a complete storage
solution that accelerates data transmission and simplifies the complex management
process from construction to maintenance. Make enterprises focus on value creation
instead of operation management.
