Capacity issues forced departments to find easier alternatives to storing and sharing data using services such as Google Drive or Box. Each bringing additional management overhead and data protection needs. This led to the deployment of additional NAS or Windows File Servers to keep up with the growth. Over time however, the amount of data being stored both in size and volume increased dramatically due to things such as higher resolution images and videos, audio files, IOT devices collecting data at the edge of networks, geo-spatial data, and traditional office files. This was relatively easy to manage and back up as a single system. In the early days of storing unstructured data, organizations invested in Network Attached Storage (NAS) to provide a centralized location to manage and protect the data.
