:: NetApp Data Protection and Recovery for NAS
NAS vendors Network Appliance, support features that include clustered configurations, RAID protection, robust product architecture, and so on. The network infrastructure supporting these NAS topologies also enhances the overall resilience of the solutions in terms of high availability and security. Nevertheless, there are still several business reasons that demand adequate "data availability"—the ability to protect and recover valuable business data when needed. The key factor that drives the stringent requirements for data availability is the cost associated with downtime. This includes costs associated with lost productivity, reduced customer satisfaction, and the opportunity cost from lost revenues due to inability to access business-critical data.
