Cloud File Storage for Remote Office/Branch Office
Modernize and Unify Branch IT Infrastructure
Powering Branch IT Modernization for Distributed Organizations
Replace NetApp Filers and Windows Storage
CTERA Edge Filers enable organizations to replace traditional NetApp filers and Windows file servers with a comprehensive, cloud-integrated and centrally managed solution. CTERA filers deliver local file storage/NAS, modern collaboration, cloud data tiering and replication, backup/DR and more for a fraction of the cost of traditional file storage infrastructure.
Infinite File Capacity
CTERA’s intelligent caching technology delivers unlimited file access to office users, with visibility to all organizational files centralized in the cloud. Users enjoy easy collaboration across offices and endpoints with no local storage restraints, with files dynamically cached from any secure cloud to filers and desktops.
Cross-Site Collaboration
CTERA Edge Filers provide fast, local access and collaboration to cloud-based files. Users in separate geographies can easily work on files to improve productivity while maintaining the highest levels of performance and data security and control.
Ideal for the Distributed Enterprise
CTERA has deployed edge filers in more than 110 countries around the world, from Argentina to Zimbabwe. Many of CTERA’s customers have dozens, hundreds or even thousands of sites dispersed across large geographical areas. CTERA’s scalable platform supports any large deployment, including those with unreliable or slow internet connections.
Choose Your Cloud Architecture
Connect your on-premises storage to your private cloud or datacenter storage infrastructure, to your public or hosted-private cloud IaaS provider, or to a CTERA-managed virtual private cloud (VPC). Freed from vendor lock-in, you have the flexibility to support current and future requirements.
Centralized Management
Manage all aspects of ROBO storage from a single console: Monitor usage, perform upgrades, and troubleshoot remotely. Efficient template-based management and configurable alerts make this an easy task, even on a large scale.
Zero-Minute Disaster Recovery
Redirect users to secure direct-to-cloud file access in the event of an outage, ensuring uninterrupted office productivity. Seamless ACL (user permissions) enforcement on both the local filer and in the cloud ensure users have same file access in cloud failover scenarios, while enterprise IT saves $1,000s per office by eliminating the need for expensive, redundant office storage appliances.
ROBO Storage at a Fraction of the Cost
CTERA typically reduces total cost of ownership (TCO) by 70% to 80% compared with alternative branch and remote office storage solutions. We enable remote storage and cost savings by replacing several separate point products with a single solution with efficient, centralized management tools.
