With SpycerNode, Rohde & Schwarz has brought enterprise-class storage
features to the media and entertainment market segment. Today's exponen-
tial growth of data and transactions is demanding larger and larger amounts
of unstructured data storage and management across diverse workloads. As
each department or division attempts to satisfy its own storage and perfor-
mance needs, your organization can find itself with many disparate systems
isolated from each other. This can result in expensive resource duplication,
complicated management and isolated pools of data. In addition, the
resulting islands of information may hold valuable insights that may not be
accessible in such a fragmented environment. Traditional RAID is no longer
an effective mechanism for data protection for modern disk drives, since it
can take several hours or even days to rebuild a failed drive. Advanced
erasure coding to spread the data and shorten recovery time is required to
avoid the catastrophic results of multi-disk failures with traditional RAID.
The R&S SpycerNode with its ideal physical sizes as a building block, are
easy to install and deploy. IT managers appreciate features such as two-digit
front-panel shelf ID, activity and status indicators for all key components,
alarms and lockable carriers. With a "no single point of failure" design and
support for both dual ported NL-SAS and dual ported SSD-drives, the R&S
SpycerNode is ready to fulfill a wide variety of applications.
