Overview

Through a set of comprehensive development tools, StorNext API gives you to the power to control how data moves between StorNext servers and storage tiers. This interface features a broad set of programming calls that allow applications and embedded systems to make custom requests of StorNext services. To help guide integration, StorNext API is divided into three components: (1) StorNext Client APIs, which manage bandwidth allocation, (2) StorNext File System APIs, which optimize file creation, and (3) StorNext Storage Manager APIs, which help with StorNext archiving and data movement functionality. Each of these APIs also features a variety of reporting utilities designed for centralized monitoring and alerting—all of which lets you build a tighter interface between your applications and storage solutions.
