This local caching appliance boosts data accessibility within your data center, in Azure, or across a wide-area network (WAN). Featuring both software and hardware, the Microsoft Azure FXT Edge Filer provides outstanding throughput and low latency, making it perfect for hybrid storage systems designed to meet high-performance computing (HPC) requirements. Its scale-out clustering capability ensures continuous enhancements to NAS performance.
