HOUSTON, TX – Aug. 22, 2014 — /BackupReview.info/ — SoftNAS™, the #1 Best-Selling NAS in the Cloud, today it will be demonstrating the latest version of its SoftNAS Cloud/Enterprise^TM  product at VMworld 2014 next week in San Francisco, August 24-28 in booth #801.

SoftNAS recently announced Version 3 of SoftNAS Cloud/Enterprise^TM which bolstered the product’s performance improvement by nearly 300 percent and included upgrades for ease-of-use and data protection.

At the show, SoftNAS will be demonstrating its SoftNAS™ Cloud for VMware® product that allows VMware customers to leverage VMware platforms and tools to incorporate cloud storage, near real-time backup and disaster recovery capabilities. The product supports all VMware-compatible storage media and network hardware and is compatible with all private, public and hybrid cloud platforms.

As part of the SoftNAS Cloud for VMware upgrade, SoftNAS now includes support for vCloud Hybrid Service and is the first and only NAS software product available for vCloud Hybrid Service. In addition, the offering includes support for Hybrid HA™ – a patent-pending technology that provides non-stop NAS storage between VMware datacenters and vCloud Hybrid Service.

Additionally, SoftNAS will be providing demonstrations explaining:

• How to configure and set-up SnapReplicate™ through SoftNAS’ browser-based StorageCenter™ administrative system;
• Use of Hybrid HA™ for automatic failover and seamless HA storage across routed data centers and routed networks;
• How to backup data from VMware’s vSphere® Data Protection™ Advanced product (VDP) to vCloud Hybrid Service.

“Hundreds of organizations globally trust SoftNAS to offer a no-compromise safety net for mission-critical data in the cloud,” said CEO and founder Rick Braddy. “Our focus at VMworld is to show VMware administrators how truly easy it can be to try, buy and deploy our offerings and see how their VMware investments can evolve into powerful storage platforms whether in the cloud or on-premise.”
