"With the way Big Data is growing, customers can't keep throwing more hardware and administrators at the problem—they need smart, scalable software to ensure high performance and availability in the form of scale-out NAS. The more complex storage becomes, the simpler management needs to be, which is why we've architected OneFS 7.0 for easy management of the powerful storage infrastructure that's under the hood. Overall, the latest version of OneFS offers the best of both worlds: the ease of a simple storage solution with the horsepower of EMC Isilon."
