Digital content has become indispensable to business operations – unlocking its potential is critical to business competitiveness. But as data volumes double every two to three years worldwide, traditional storage solutions no longer deliver the speed, flexibility and ease-of-use that IT teams require. File-based data tends to lead all types of information in terms of growth, and the majority of that data is stored in unstructured form. That’s why, to extract the most value from their data assets, companies today need faster, highly scalable and secure network attached storage (NAS) solutions that can integrate easily with multicloud infrastructure to deliver cost-efficient file storage.
Isilon, a family of network attached storage solutions, enables you to accelerate new workloads, create new opportunities and exploits new efficiencies to move your organization forward on the journey to IT modernization.

To maximize the business value of “data capital,” organizations need a modern network attached storage infrastructure that is:
- Massively scalable. It’s easy for data to get siloed when your file storage system can’t handle rapid growth. A multi-protocol, single-namespace data lake is essential for scalability and leveraging data capital.
- Seamless interoperability. To unlock the value in data, NAS systems must enable connections to a variety of analytics vendors that can help to extract the insight that can lead to digital transformation.
- Extreme performance. Applications increasingly greater speed and bandwidth, and next-gen network attached storage systems must deliver extraordinary performance to keep up.
- Bullet-proof security. As the threat landscape continues to evolve and become more sophisticated, NAS systems must data security through encrypted data transfers across clusters and data at rest encryption.
- Integration with a multicloud of structure. More than 75% of organizations that use Infrastructure-as-a-Service are leveraging more than one public cloud service provider, making it vital that their network attached storage system can extend to a multicloud storage infrastructure.
Isilon meets and exceeds these stringent requirements to accommodate the most demanding enterprise file workloads while enabling organizations to extract more value from their data capital.

What is network attached storage?
Network attached storage (NAS) is an IP-based file-sharing device that’s attached to a local area network. NAS can serve a variety of clients and servers over an IP network. A NAS device uses its own operating system and integrated hardware and software to deliver a range of file service needs.
Why is network attached storage important?
Network attached storage enables organizations to:
- Simplify management of data storage.
- Enable comprehensive data access and filesharing.
- Easily scale storage capacity and performance.
- Increase efficiency with centralized storage.
- Increase availability with efficient data replication and recovery options.
- Secure data with user authentication and file locking.
