Storage Maximizer for SharePoint

Simple Tiered SharePoint Storage with EBS & RBS

Quest Storage Maximizer for SharePoint enables you to store more data efficiently, improve SharePoint performance, reduce SQL Server dependencies and costs, and speed up migration projects. With Storage Maximizer for SharePoint, you’ll be able to relieve the stress SharePoint data continually puts on your SQL Server. Best of all, Storage Maximizer makes your job easier by automating the movement of selected SharePoint data to the locations you trust through external BLOB storage (EBS) or remote BLOB storage (RBS). Now, the end users will be happy with SharePoint’s performance, and the SQL Server administrators will stop hounding you to get rid of some SharePoint data!

  • Reduce help desk calls associated with SharePoint’s performance and availability by easing demands on SQL Server
  • Save storage costs by moving/externalizing large files and unused content to less expensive storage
  • Complete SharePoint migration projects 10-30 percent faster
  • Reduce the burden and complexity of managing externalized SharePoint data with native tools

 

Features

  •  Maximized Performance with Rich Rules – Reduce end user complaints about SharePoint performance by externalizing the content that slows your system. Storage Maximizer for SharePoint creates rules to move large, old and unused SharePoint data from SQL Server storage to more efficient storage, such as file shares and network attached storage devices, while keeping the data accessible to your end users via SharePoint.
  • Automatic Scaling with Tiered Storage – Decrease your dependency on SQL Server and automatically scale SharePoint to meet your business requirements rather than shrinking your business to fit within SharePoint. Achieve increased cost savings over time by automatically externalizing the data that weighs down SQL Server to more efficient and lower cost storage options throughout the lifecycle of the document.
  • Simplified Management – Spend less time learning a new SharePoint tool and more time meeting your users’ storage and performance. Storage Maximizer’s management and reporting dashboard is integrated with SharePoint Central Administration, providing a familiar user interface to control and track the location of your data.
  • Enhanced Security – Encrypt externalized SharePoint data so that only those with permission have access with a single click.
