AFF C Series storage is a sustainable, scalable, and secure solution for tier 1 and tier 2 applications. It combines the high performance of flash products with large capacity, making it the most affordable all-flash series on the market, allowing you to easily enjoy all the advantages.

C Series is ideal for:

• Transitioning from hybrid/HDD to all-flash storage
• Running database applications and file environments based on virtualization platforms
• Secondary storage targets for disaster recovery, backup, and tiering

Ultra-dense capacity flash combined with NetApp deduplication and data compression delivers exceptional storage density without sacrificing performance. The AFF C-Series eliminates inefficient islands of storage, reducing storage sprawl, improving performance, and significantly reducing energy consumption. With a single storage operating system, you can seamlessly manage, protect, and move data across data centers and hybrid cloud environments, simplifying operations and enhancing data management.

As part of our unified data storage portfolio, the AFF C series is developed by NetApp. ONTAP software provides support, which can provide effective and safe services in different environments. Data management and consistent access to data services. A unified management experience can be achieved. Ease of use and efficiency, eliminating infrastructure silos and data bottlenecks, and providing unparalleled large-scale simplification. ONTAP provides a set of common functions across internal and cloud storage, which can simplify operations and make IT teams focus on strategic business priorities. It allows you to manage across mixed clouds storage, which covers flash, disk and running block, file and object workloads.

AFF C-Series systems are built on the non-disruptive cluster scale-out architecture in ONTAP, enabling you to easily scale capacity, eliminating storage silos and painful data migrations.

• Consolidate workloads on AFF C-Series systems and protect SLAs in multi-workload and multi-tenant environments with built-in adaptive Quality of Service (QoS).
• Manage massively scalable NAS containers with up to 20 PB of capacity and 400 billion files through a single namespace.

With a hybrid cloud IT infrastructure powered by NetApp technology, you can simplify and integrate data management across cloud and on-premises environments. With the AFF C-Series, you can maximize performance and reduce overall storage costs by up to 70% by automatically tiering cold data to the cloud. This allows you to reserve flash storage for more frequently used data while reducing energy consumption. Easily manage all your data using the BlueXP unified control platform.

For data-driven enterprises, the impact of data loss on business can be significant and costly. Ransomware attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. NetApp AFF systems offer a comprehensive set of application-consistent integrated data protection, including:

• Powerful protection with multi-factor authentication, tamper-proof NetApp Snapshot copies, end-to-end encryption, and automatic blocking of malicious file types.
• Real-time autonomous ransomware detection, enhanced by embedded machine learning (ML) models, designed for 99%+ accuracy.
• SIEM/XDR integration and integrated active-active business continuity.
• Network storage capabilities combining advanced encryption, tamper-proof backup, and isolated storage.
• Replicate to any NetApp AFF or FAS system, on-premises or in the cloud, using NetApp SnapMirror technology.
