NAS (Network Attached Storage)

Category: infrastructure

A dedicated file storage server connected to a local area network, enabling data access to authorized users from a single point.

An enterprise-grade NAS functions as a self-hosted private cloud cluster. Instead of paying recurring monthly platform fees to third-party providers, home networks and small business hubs deploy a local multi-drive NAS to manage automatic system backups, media libraries, and sensitive client document targets.

Common Examples

  • We built a 40-terabyte local NAS unit to manage high-resolution video assets without relying on expensive monthly public cloud buckets.
  • The local NAS architecture can be configured with automated multi-drive redundancy to protect critical client assets against disk failures.
