This morning we were in Barcelona, at the QNAP World Tour 2023, where we were able to see some of the brand’s new features. The company has shown some of its latest developments and trends that will mark the coming years in storage, use of virtual machines, servers, use of the cloud and network devices in general. We are going to tell you what the main advances that they have shown in their presentation consist of.
QNAP is a leader in offering network-attached storage devices, file sharing and virtualization. We have tested their products on numerous occasions, which are always at the cutting edge of technology. If there is something that must be kept in mind today, it is having equipment that offers good security, flexibility and compatibility.
QNAP News
The Taiwanese manufacturer has demonstrated that it has the latest technology by announcing storage equipment of up to 2 PB (the equivalent of more than 2,000 1 TB storage disks), as well as cards and switches that reach speeds of 100 Gbps. This means maximum performance, capacity and high availability of storage space. All this will enhance the possibilities of virtualization.
They have also shown their latest advances in the use of the private cloud. It is something that is increasingly in demand and even becomes necessary if we take into account the use we give to mobile devices. In this sense, they offer high capacity and performance private cloud. In addition, you will always be able to access it from anywhere and from any device, as it has great compatibility with systems such as Windows, macOS and mobile versions.
Regarding connectivity, the range of options is very wide. They have shown new features to achieve complete connectivity, ranging from routers to manageable switches. In addition, SD-WAN’s QuWAN technology allows company headquarters to be interconnected. This technology is very interesting today, when many companies decide to expand and adopt teleworking. It offers a mesh VPN structure, along with strong encryption and cloud-centric management.
Security and compatibility
Precisely, safety has been one of the key points during the presentation at the QNAP World Tour 2023 in Barcelona. Beyond the infrastructure used, security is essential and in this sense they offer different measures, both active and passive security and to have maximum protection.
If we focus on compatibility, QNAP products are compatible with the main Internet companies, such as Google or Microsoft. You will also be able to use them with different virtualization technologies, such as Hyper-V or VMware Ready, and create backup copies.
We can name the new service myQNAPcloud Storage. Its objective is to offer a complete solution to be able to combine the private and public cloud and, in this way, achieve advanced backups, so that you can have everything available anywhere and with the maximum possible guarantees.
In short, these are some of the new features and trends that QNAP has presented in this World Tour 2023 in Barcelona. We will soon test some of their products and services to talk in more detail about their operation and performance.
