F5 Acopia ARX Series
High performance, enterprise-class intelligent file virtualization devices that dramatically simplify the management and lower the cost of file storage environments.
Unparalleled performance and scale, with enterprise-class reliability
F5 Acopia award-winning intelligent file virtualization solutions decouple file access from physical file location, giving you the freedom to move data at your convenience, the freedom to place data at your discretion, and the freedom to choose storage technology that best meets your business needs - all without application, or business, disruption.
The F5 Acopia ARX® series are high performance, enterprise-class intelligent file virtualization devices that dramatically simplify the management of file storage environments and lower total storage costs by automating data management tasks and eliminating the disruption associated with storage management operations.
Features and Benefits
- Unique Flexibility - The ARX series is powered by the F5 FreedomFabricTM network operating system, which automates many storage management tasks that are performed manually today, and eliminates the disruption associated with those tasks. FreedomFabric's unique suite of storage management policies includes data migration, automated storage tiering, data replication, and dynamic load balancing.
- Unmatched Scalability and Performance - ARX systems are uniquely able to scale to fit the growing storage demands of enterprises without compromising performance. The ARX architecture handles gigabytes of throughput and scales to billions of files per device.
- Uncompromising Availability and Data Integrity - Only the ARX series provides cluster-like failover of services, ensuring the integrity of data is preserved at all times. ARX devices do not modify user data or leave migration stubs, so you can be confident in the accessibility and accuracy of your data at all times.
- True Heterogeneity - ARX devices support industry standard CIFS and NFS file access protocols so they easily integrate into multi-vendor, multi-platform file storage environments, including Network Attached Storage (NAS), and Windows®, UNIX® / Linux file server infrastructures.
- Real-time Policy Enforcement - Only ARX systems are able to fully leverage your IP/Ethernet network: monitoring client demand, resource capacity and network conditions in real time, all the time, and responding dynamically to ensure real-time enforcement of data management policies.
F5 Acopia ARX devices are used today by leading Fortune 1000 companies to achieve dramatic capital and operational expenditure savings, and business efficiency gains in their file storage environments.
