StoragePoint
SharePoint 2016 BLOB storage. Optimize your SharePoint storage infrastructure with the industry’s leading remote BLOB storage (RBS) solution. With StoragePoint, you can externalize files in real-time to less expensive storage devices without impacting performance, the user experience or native SharePoint functionality.
Optimized content storage
Optimize your SharePoint 2016 BLOB storage strategy by storing SharePoint content on SAN, NAS, CAS or in the cloud. With StoragePoint, you can choose the storage tier that’s optimized for your cost and performance needs. Monitor and automatically move content to the appropriate storage tier based on frequency of access, age, version and metadata rules.
Unlimited storage potential
Solve performance and management challenges that content growth creates by leaving unstructured content on appropriate storage tiers. With StoragePoint, you can manage content from within SharePoint and ensure high performance while enabling unlimited growth of content. Create a highly scalable and flexible SharePoint storage architecture.
Advanced content database management
Shrink SQL SharePoint content databases by 98% or more and eliminate the need to split content databases to maintain SharePoint performance. Manage file server content from SharePoint without importing or migrating directly into SharePoint—ensuring your content databases are lean, efficient and high performing.
Accelerated upload and download speeds
Break through SharePoint performance limits and double your typical upload and download speeds. Move unstructured content outside SharePoint, where much higher read/write speeds are realized, and efficiently manage SharePoint environments of any size.
