Azure & AWS Cloud Gateway with Anti-Ransomware by StoneFly

StoneFly, Inc. the original innovator of the iSCSI protocol and a recognized global leader in the storage and backup and disaster recovery industry adds deduplication, ransomware protection, and WORM storage provisioning to their virtual cloud storage gateway solution.

StoneFly Virtual Storage Gateway: Brief Overview

StoneFly virtual storage gateway facilitates Azure blob and Amazon S3 integration with legacy infrastructure, enterprise servers such as Dell EMC, HPE, etc. and hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) such as StoneFly USS, HPE Nimble, etc. The virtual cloud gateway facilitates cloud storage for NAS, SAN, unified NAS + SAN volumes and HCI workloads running on VMware, Hyper-V, KVM, and Citrix (formerly XenServer) hypervisors.

The cloud storage gateway solution communicates with industry standard x86 servers and legacy infrastructure using standard NFS and CIFS/SMB protocol and it supports iSCSI and Fibre Channel protocols for SAN volumes.

To deliver upon StoneFly’s goal of simplified enterprise storage, the virtual storage gateway integrates cloud storage repositories in a similar way to local storage hardware. For the end user, the experience is the same as setting up and provisioning a dedicated storage appliance. However, the capabilities, scalability and operational efficiency of the cloud is delivered via the innovative gateway solution. These abilities make StoneFly’s virtual gateway a good fit for a variety of enterprise use-cases.
