Cloud Attached Storage

Hybrid Approach to Managed Data Protection

Cloud Attached Storage by CTERA fulfills the need for easy-to-use, comprehensive storage and data protection for SMBs, branch offices and SOHO. This patent-pending technology combines  easy access to the reliability and elasticity of cloud storage, with on-premises appliances that provide enterprise-grade performance and are easy to deploy and maintain.

CTERA's channel partners deploy and manage Cloud Attached Storage using the CTERA Portal, our cloud service delivery platform that enables user account management, service provisioning and remote appliance management.

Key Benefits

	A cloud storage gateway that provides shared storage, cloud backup, folder synchronization and remote access in a single device
	No desktop software required, user-friendly web interface
	No need for separate tapes, file servers and NAS devices

How It Works

The Cloud Attached Storage device is installed on the customer's local network (connected to the router), and seamlessly accesses cloud services. It enables users to:

• Share files between PCs on the local network
• Synchronize files and folders between PCs and the Cloud Attached Storage device
• Automatically and securely back up data to the cloud
• Provide remote access to both local and cloud-stored files
• Restore files from anywhere, using just a web browser
