Benefits

Benefits with Dell Elastic Cloud Storage

The key benefits at a glance.

Elastic Cloud Storage

With a Dell ECS cluster, you benefit from your own private cloud that combines all the advantages of cloud storage with the benefits of local storage.

On Premises

Build a scalable storage cluster that spans one or more of your data centers. Benefit from additional redundancy and performance thanks to replication groups and multiple VDCs.

Protocol Interoperability

Save data using S3, CAS, HDFS, or NFS and read the same data back using a different protocol.

Maximum Performance

Since you operate the storage in your own environment, you benefit from fastest transfer rates and low latencies within your network.

Security

Maintain full control over the network infrastructure by seamlessly integrating your own storage cluster into your existing network topology.

Federation

With Dell ECS, you can combine multiple clusters in geographically separated data centers into one large cluster.

Unbeatable Low Costs

Above a certain amount of storage requirements, having your own storage cluster represents the most cost-effective alternative among all object storage types.

Managed by Backup ONE

Through its subsidiary Informatio, Backup ONE has more than 15 years of experience in planning, commissioning, monitoring, and maintaining Dell storage solutions.
