NetApp has announced new storage solutions targeted at midsize businesses.

Starting at under $8,000, the FAS2220 enable midsize firms to start right by providing more performance and software value than traditional entry-level storage systems; keep it simple by delivering increased performance without increasing deployment or management complexity; and grow smart by leveraging existing storage investments and easily adding new capabilities to meet changing needs.

The FAS2220 leverages new NetApp Flash Pool technology to provide an unmatched combination of performance and value to help midsize businesses start right and stretch their dollars. Flash Pools, which extend NetApps Virtual Storage Tier approach to the midsize market, enable customers to accelerate application performance and are simple to implement and operate out of the box.

Flash Pool technology also seamlessly integrates with NetApps industry-leading suite of nine storage efficiency technologies to help customers increase utilization and reduce power costs. NetApp is the only vendor offering this unique intelligent caching approach in the entry-level storage market.

The new NetApp OnCommand System Manager 2.1 helps simplify, control, and automate both setup and ongoing management of NetApp storage. This tool allows customers to improve their storage and service efficiency, boost productivity, and reduce the impact of storage management on IT resources.

The FAS2200 series runs on the latest version of the Data ONTAP operating system to provide a unified, scalable architecture that enables customers to easily and affordably upgrade to higher-end systems and new capabilities without needing forklift upgrades. Data ONTAP also provides cluster-ready capabilities, enabling midsize customers to seamlessly add storage capacity as needed to their shared infrastructures with no downtime.
