QES operating system based on FreeBSD & ZFS
The TES-1885U supports the brand-new QES (QNAP Enterprise Storage) operating
system, which is based on the simple and efficient FreeBSD kernel and the ZFS
file system that has been proven through years of experience to be most suitable
for high-end enterprise applications. Continuing the same user experience with
the QTS operating system, QES provides business users with an easy learning
curve to quickly deploy the TES-1885U, and provides the best storage solution
jointly with the current QNAP NAS.
ZFS the best file system for business data storage
The TES-1885U features ZFS, a combined file system and logical volume
manager, to support various advanced functions for high-end enterprise storage,
including powerful storage expansion, flexible storage pools, RAID-Z for data
protection, simplified management, high-performance SSD cache, nearly limitless
snapshots and cloning, data deduplication, in-line compression, self-healing,
and thin provisioning with reclaim for optimized utilization for virtual machine
storage. ZFS is designed with a focus on data integrity, and uses its end-to-end
checksums to detect and correct silent data corruption caused by hardware
defects, bugs in firmware or metadata errors, effectively protecting users data.
Deduplication and compression to maximize VDI storage
performance
All-flash storage featuring high-performance random I/O is advantageous for
databases, online transaction processing (OLTP), and virtual desktop
infrastructure (VDI) applications. Though the cost of all-flash storage is
higher than using normal hard drives, data deduplication and compression
technology can greatly assist in storing more data in less storage space with
greater cost-efficiency and performance gains. Using VDI for example, there
could be over 90% duplicate data from OS images and applications that are spread
over virtual desktops. The TES-1885U supports block-based data deduplication to
optimize storage usage from redundant data. Deduplicated virtual desktops become
easier to be cached to achieve optimal virtual desktop performance. In-line data
compression helps shrink data size, further optimizing storage usage. For
mastering storage in a virtualized environment, the TES-1885U provides
businesses with the most cost-effective remote virtual desktop platform and
mission-critical information warehousing.
Strong disaster recovery made by nearly limitless snapshots and
SnapSync
The TES-1885U supports up to 65,536 snapshots for iSCSI LUN and shared
folders. When executing a remote snapshot backup, it only needs to transfer
changed data, and can use deduplication and compression to significantly reduce
the amount of transferred data. The TES-1885U can provide remote backup SnapSync
for snapshots at the shortest interval of every five minutes, fully supports
VMware vCenter Site Recovery (SRM) technology, provides Storage Replication
Adapter (SRA) for SRM, and provides enterprise-class remote backup &
disaster recovery solution to fulfill business continuity.
Well-rounded backup solutions to secure data
QNAP NetBak Replicator is easy-to-use and VSS-aware backup software, and
helps businesses to create complete backups in datacenter and virtualization
environments without needing to purchase expensive and complex commercial
software. To build a QNAP Snap Agent and VSS Hardware Provider operating
environment, all applications (including VSS Service, Requestor, Provider and
QNAP Snap Agent) can be deployed with VSS-Aware applications on the same server,
and the minimal requirements are only one TES-1885U and one server for it to be
operational.

virtualization applications.
Ideal backup NAS for Enterprise ZFS NAS
When running the QES operating system, the TES-1885U is the perfect backup
storage for the dual-controller Enterprise ZFS NAS using SnapSync. If the
Enterprise ZFS NAS unexpectedly stops, the TES-1885U can immediately recover all
the backed up data locally to take over operations and services with maximized
uptime. It prevents the downtime required to restore data from a remote QTS
NAS/rsync server back to the recovered Enterprise ZFS NAS, making the TES-1885U
the best option to pair with the Enterprise ZFS NAS as a backup NAS to achieve
optimal recovery time objectives.
