Remote Connection
With the new remote connection function,
File Station now enables management of
files on local, remote, and cloud storage
across geographical boundaries and
platforms from a single window. Remote
connection enables you to carry out file
management tasks from remote to local
devices and vice versa from a single
management window. Remote connection
fully supports connection to multiple cloud
services including Google Drive™, Dropbox™,
Microsoft OneDrive®, Amazon Cloud Drive™,
and Yandex.Disk™ in addition to network
protocols such as CIFS/SMB, FTP, and
WebDAV.
Qsync Central Station 2.0
Qsync Central Station 2.0 supports file
synchronization between multiple devices
enabling you to use a smart phone, tablet,
computer, or web access to browse through
synchronized files. When your computer is
offline, edit the files offline or view the files on
the local Qsync folder, and as soon computer
is back online Qsynch will resume the data
synchronization. Delete files from your mobile
device, and instead leave them on your NAS
to save the storage space of your local
device. Use the powerful features of Qsync
Central Station 2.0 to collaborate with your
colleagues, or share music with your friends.

Big Data Analytics
The TDS-16489U provides the heavy-duty
compute, capacious memory, and mammoth
storage capabilities required to drill through
extremely demanding big data analytics
workloads. The TDS-16489U intelligently uses
NVMe PCIe SSD caching, and auto-tiering to
dramatically reduce data storage demands;
while, big data tools such as Hadoop and
Apache Spark can be deployed easily with
Container Station or Virtualization Station.
Because the computation and data transmission all occur via internal buses, running Big
Data analysis on the TDS-16489U is massively
more efficient. This all provides further ROI in
that developers no longer worry about the
maintenance of running multiple servers.
Windows Server VMs
Running Windows services (such as Active
Directory and Exchange Server) on virtual
machines vastly reduces costs on all fronts.
The Virtualization Station in QTS
provides a stable environment and efficient
storage, providing greater advantages than a
normal server with a storage device for
running the aforementioned services.
Qtier™
QNAP’s auto-tiering technology Qtier™ is a
multi-tier storage management system. Qtier
automatically moves the most active data to
the high-performance drives while less active
data is migrated to high-capacity drives. This
alleviates the burden on administrators by
supporting tasks of performance pre-estimation, layout design, and relocation of data
according to performance and budgets. Use
Qtier to get an overview of all data waiting to
be processed, in the migration phase, and
data that has been processed. If administrators need to perform administrative tasks or
there are bandwidth requirements for external
connections, the administrators can pause
data migration for a period. Further, assigning
weights to data can help adjust bandwidth
allocation, in addition to alleviating
congestion between internal data migration
and external I/O.
Non-Volatile Memory
express (NVMe) Cache
NVMe standardizes the PCIe SSD interface and
unlocks the potential of PCIe SSDs. The
TDS-16489U fully supports SSD caching with
NVMe reducing latency, enabling high levels of
parallelism, and delivering outstanding I/O.

Software Defined Networking (SDN)
The advantages of SDN are well established and incorporate the clean separation between
physical and virtual networks using hypervisor networking while maintaining full visibility across
both the physical and the virtual networks. More importantly, for SMB the benefits include the
ability to start small and grow incrementally over time while enabling micro-segmentation for
multitenant networks. In deploying a software-defined switch, users are able to build a flexible,
efficient network to connect both the upper service protocols and the lower physical layers.
Customization of network topology is also simplified through different networking modes (i.e.
Bridged, External only, and Isolated). Moreover, full support for 40 GbE transmission and
port-trunking enable an extremely fast and secure network environment with full load-balancing
capabilities.

GPU Pass-through
Graphics capabilities have long been an issue on virtualized platforms. GPU passthrough
solves this issue in that an external dedicated GPU can be assigned directly to a VM to provide
full support for rich 3D graphics. The TDS-16489U supports AMD Radeon™ R7 and R9 Series*.
Virtual Machine High
Availability and Migration
With the Double-Take® Availability™ solution,
high availability, and disaster recovery are
efficiently implemented with failover across
virtual machines. This ensures that
operations are quickly recovered whenever
system failures occur.³
Container Station
Container Station incorporating Docker®
streamlines application deployment and
migration on virtualized and distributed
environments. The LXC (the lightweight Linux
Container) enables deployment of high
-performance lightweight virtualized Linux®
environments on your NAS.
