3. SkyTechnology “Above the cloud” Data Storage Industry Problems The expense and hassle of “Rip & Replace” style upgrades Moving a network to the latest technology can create an unnecessary burden for organizations, forcing them to literally “rip & replace” perfectly good storage infrastructure simply because it is a legacy connection. Raidundant has patented a flexible and interchangeable technology that allows users to upgrade their storage with ease in an affordable and simple way so businesses can stay on the cutting edge of today’s technology. Transferring data quickly and securely As file sizes continue to expand, network speeds continue to slow thanks to the large amount of data passing through individual networks. Large file transfer and backup can force all network activity to a crawl if not crash entirely. With Sky Technology, Raidundant has designed a way to alleviate the pain of data migration and backup speeds without having to purchase more expensive network bandwidth. Storage capacity and expansion limitations Legacy storage systems have limits in both their storage infrastructure as well as management. Raidundant Sky Technology has been developed without limits and allows clients to expand limitlessly, at their own pace. Sky Technology also works seamlessly within multi-vendor environments and has the ability of managing the entire storage network from a single command center. Raidundant SkySAN Solves Problems. Raidundant’s Sky Technology (aka SkySAN) is a feature rich, flexible and highly expandable storage solution that solves several key pain points in the storage industry today. While legacy manufactures address each problem separately, forcing users to purchase multiple systems to solve multiple problems, Raidundant has combined an interchangeable hardware design with an intuitive and limitless management software making SkySAN the affordable, flexible and expandable resolution.
