Storage vendor, Network Appliance (NetApp), recently extended its data centre portfolio with the launch of its newest midrange platforms, the NetApp FAS3040 and NetApp V3040 series.

Aimed solely at making enterprise data centre management easier, these systems in combination with DataONTAP 7G software provide feature-rich unified storage solutions for data-driven business applications such as Oracle, SAP, and Microsoft Exchange.

Making the announcement, Patrick Rogers, vice president, Solutions Marketing at NetApp said, "The FAS3040 and V3040 distinguish themselves as modular midrange systems that pack a lot of punch without punching a hole in our customers’ budgets. Our customers have been asking for more midrange options that deliver rock-solid SAN and NAS performance, increased data and application availability and ease of management. These latest systems are designed specifically with data-intensive business and technical applications in mind."

NetApp believes that the FAS3040 and V3040 systems will also add to its technical applications infrastructure and provide robust storage for design, automation, and other data-intensive needs.

Both the solutions are available immediately.
