Seamless storage solution for virtualization environments
DS1815+ provides seamless storage solutions for virtualization environments, including VMware, Citrix, & Microsoft Hyper-V. With VMware v Sphere® 5 & VAAI integration, DS1815+ helps offload specific storage operations & optimizes computation power in VMware environments. Windows ODX support speeds up data manipulation as the data transfer is offloaded. i SCSI also lets SMB users consolidate storage into data center storage arrays while providing hosts with the illusion of locally-attached disks.
Fit into business environments easily
With the support of Windows AD, LDAP, & Domain Trust, DS1815+ enables seamless account integration. The User Home feature can automatically create a "home" folder for every user account to minimize the administrator's effort in repeatedly creating "home" folders for all accounts. Windows ACL support on DS1815+ allows IT administrators to fine tune access controls & set up privileges to files & folders on DS1815+ through the familiar Windows user interface. With compatibility for major protocols, DS1815+ can eliminate server configuration overhead & enhance IT administratorsÂ’ efficiency.
Optimize storage management
With Synology's Storage Manager, DS1815+ allows for flexible storage deployment & utilization. You can optimize RAID configuration with Synology Hybrid RAID (SHR) while providing redundant data protection. Other features such as multiple volumes on single RAID & Global Hot Spare also greatly enhance management efficiency & fit deployment of any kind.
Synology CMS (Central Management System)
For enterprises with more than one Synology NAS server, CMS offers the flexibility & convenience for IT administrators to manage all of them from a single point of entry. Through a simple interface, you can obtain a clear overview on resource consumption & logs, helping you identify any issue right away. With group policies, CMS can do much more for your daily tasks. Once a NAS joins a group, it will automatically adopt its rules & behave as intended, without extra configuration.
All-in-one server
DS1815+ can replace several pieces of network hardware & serve as your multi-function server. Directory Server provides LDAP service, while DNS & DHCP packages allow you to host a domain name server & automate network IP assignment at no extra cost. With only one DS1815+, you can do more than you imagine
- host up to 30 websites with Web Station, safeguard the office environments with Surveillance Station, send & receive mail using your own email domain with Mail Station, share printing capability with Printer Server, make DS1815+ act as a VPN server to access company's resources remotely, & more. DS1815+ helps your company gain a competitive edge.
Ensuring business continuity
Uninterrupted availability is a critical goal for all businesses. DS1815+ supports Synology High Availability (SHA) technology which combines an active & passive server into one cluster, the former always mirrored to the latter. The Heartbeat mechanism detects regular "heartbeats" between the two servers. If the main server encounters unexpected downtime, the passive server immediately takes over. With multiple LAN ports, DS1815+ also ensures redundancy in the event of unexpected network failure.
Effective backup solution
Synology DS1815+ can serve as a centralized backup target. PC users can back up their data to the DS1815+ using Windows Backup, while Mac OS X users enjoy native Apple® Time Machine integration. You can also back up data & applications from your DS1815+ to another Disk Station, rsync servers, external drives, or even Amazon® S3 & Glacier cloud service. " Backup & Replication" means that you can schedule backup tasks & restore the server to any particular point in time, while minimizing storage consumption & processing time by saving only the specific data block that has been changed between versions. With Cloud Station, files on your PC can be backed up to DS1815+. Whenever you modify a file, the changes are backed up on DS1815+ automatically.
Increase business productivity with cloud solutions
With comprehensive cloud solutions, DS1815+ lets you create your own cloud easily. Cloud Station is the perfect package to sync files across multiple devices with the benefit of better privacy for important data.

With mobile app DS cloud, any change made to a file is automatically synced to your smartphones & tablets. For distributed enterprise, Synology's 2-way sync between different Disk Stations ensures employees at different locations share the same information in real-time. IT administrators can customize synchronization rules, such as avoiding syncing large files to optimize bandwidth usage.
Secure your data
DS1815+ provides share-level AES 256-bit encryption to block off unauthorized access attempts. Once you create & encrypt a shared folder, people without the encryption key will not be able to use the encrypted data even if they remove the hard drives from your DS1815+ & mount it on their device. 2-Step verification gives an extra layer of protection as 6-digit one-time code sending to your mobile device is required for login. In addition, DS1815+ provides other security add-ons, such as IP block & allow list, Antivirus packages, firewall, & Do S attack prevention. These enhancements ensures a secure DSM environment.
