NexentaStor is a fully featured NAS/SAN software platform with capabilities that meet and exceed the capabilities of legacy storage systems. NexentaStor’s rapid development is due to the feedback and input of more than 10,000 NexentaStor users and the ongoing progress of the underlying Illumos and NexentaStor.org communities, each of which are estimated to have hundreds of thousands of members.
