Single Node NAS vs Scale Out NAS – What’s the difference

StoneFusion allows users to provision single node NAS volumes and scale out NAS volumes. Single node NAS volumes support less features than scale out NAS volumes. The reduction in supported features lets single node NAS volumes demonstrate significantly higher performance for compatible tasks when compared with “regular” NAS volumes.

Here’s a comparison between the features supported by single NAS volume vs scale out NAS volume:

Features	Single Node NAS Volume	Scale Out NAS Volume
Erasure Coding
NFSv3 export and NFSv4
Directory Quotas
Tiering
File-level WORM
Mirroring
Asynchronous Replication
Creating Snapshots
Data Deduplication
Expanding by Adding New Segments
Managed Storage with Enabled Flash Cache

If CIFS export is enabled for the volume, then:

Encryption is supported for CIFS sessions
Enabling and disabling of handling for CIFS DOS attributes and CIFS extended attributes is provided.
CIFS recycle bin is supported.

Single Node NAS volume can be provisioned on NAS Managed resource or as an iSCSI NAS Segment. This provides the user with the opportunity to get higher performance in comparison to types of compatible NAS volumes at the cost of less virtual storage allocation.
