DELL Compellent FS8600 with Fluid FS Storage System
The Dell Compellent FS8600 is a scale-out NAS solution designed to unify block and file data management within a single Fluid Data architecture. Utilizing the Dell Fluid File System (FluidFS), it eliminates the limitations of traditional storage by allowing non-disruptive scaling of both performance and capacity. A single cluster can grow to include up to four FS8600 appliances (8 controllers), supporting a unified namespace of up to 1 PB. The FS8600 leverages Compellent’s industry-leading efficiency, including Automated Tiered Storage and Thin Provisioning, to lower TCO. With high-availability features like active-active controllers and enterprise-grade data protection (Redirect-on-write snapshots, NDMP, and asynchronous replication), it provides a robust platform for mission-critical file services.
