About Leonovus Smart Filer
Smart Filer allows you to extend your file server infrastructure with unlimited, inexpensive cloud storage. Infrequently accessed files are off-loaded automatically and transparently to secondary or cloud storage according to policies you configure. Users and applications continue to access these files as they did before. Using report information, you can configure policy to off-load files matching the criteria you define to designated targets, including on-premises secondary storage and cloud storage services. When off-loading a file from the primary file server to target storage, Smart Filer leaves an industry-standard symbolic link in its place. Smart Filer removes the complexity associated with file server refresh by automating the migration process and providing users and applications continuous access to data during the process. Smart Filer lets you store data seamlessly in a wide array of storage infrastructure, including on-premises storage servers, and Amazon S3.

ArchiverFS
ArchiverFS is a lightweight file archiving solution for servers and network storage that lets you use any NAS, SAN, or cloud platform as second-tier storage. With no databases or proprietary formats, it runs on pure NTFS from start to finish. Old, unused, or unstructured files can be moved in bulk from expensive primary storage to cheaper secondary devices while preserving directory structures, attributes, and permissions. If it can be formatted with NTFS and shared via a UNC path, ArchiverFS can use it. Features include support for cloud, DFS, replication, de-duplication, and compression. Optional link stubs (including seamless symbolic links) can be left in place of moved files, so users see them exactly as before. By reclaiming valuable space on primary storage without adding complexity, ArchiverFS helps organizations reduce costs, improve performance, and manage file growth with complete transparency.

Leonovus Data Discovery Tool
Leonovus Data Discovery Tool scans Server Message Block (SMB) network attached file storage and characterizes the data stored on it.
Data Discovery Tool is storage vendor agnostic and can work in a variety of environments. Use Data Discovery Tool to inventory your file servers by visualizing the types of files and the mix of active versus infrequently accessed data they contain. Data Discovery Tool provides the insight you need to develop a file storage strategy that addresses exponential data growth by tiering out infrequently accessed (“cold”) data. Leonovus Smart Filer enables transparent tiering of infrequently accessed (“cold”) data to cheaper cloud or secondary storage. Data Discovery Tool builds a data analytics model of your file-based data serving environment. In doing so, it provides you with a full understanding of how much data is being served, the age and activity of the data and its composition. Essentially, it provides you with a profile of your stored data.
