If businesses want to leverage the cloud as their primary storage they need to look at a new way in which to manage it. The CloudFS Console gives administrators a global view into all files. This means the cloud can be used as primary storage as admins can interface globally with the cloud and other remote offices. The most active data will still be cached on local controllers in order to maintain performance.
Benefits include:
- Google Maps view of all controllers and connectivity between them
- The ability to view activity, status and alerts going back in time up to 14 days
- Status of locally cached data at each site
- Status of cloud and network connectivity
- Status of each controller
- Status and information about every file stored in the Global File System
- Alerts on any potential problems across the entire Panzura infrastructure, network and cloud
Availability
The Panzura CloudFS Console is available today to Panzura customers at no extra charge.
