Metalogix StoragePoint is the remote BLOB storage and archive solution for SharePoint. StoragePoint reduces costs and improves SharePoint performance and scalability by offloading 95% of content from the underlying SQL database to alternate tiers of storage, including the Cloud. This frees you to consolidate SharePoint content into fewer content databases to improve search and index results and reduce backup windows to minutes, not hours. StoragePoint installs natively into SharePoint Central Administration in minutes, enabling you to transparently manage SharePoint BLOBs as well as capture and consolidate file share content from a single SharePoint interface.
Key Benefits:
- Reduce your content database by at least 90-95%.
- Make SharePoint faster and cheaper to own and operate.
- Externalize content to virtually any SAN, NAS, or cloud platform such as Microsoft Azure.
- Consolidate your SharePoint footprint for easier management.
- Increase performance – BLOB I/O is performed at the Web Front-Ends, rather than the SQL databases, resulting in significant performance increases; with optional BLOB compression, cloud upload/retrieval is also significantly improved
- Save money by using tiered storage on less expensive layers.
- Secure transmission and storage with BLOB encryption (up to 256-bit AES)
Key Features:
- Centrally manages SharePoint administration to leverage existing roles and security.
- BLOB compression to reduce the amount of space required to store the content BLOB.
- Site collection-specific storage profiles to externalize different site collections to separate specified storage locations or devices
- Uses 100% native SharePoint APIs and services
