The goal is to bring scalability, security and cost efficiency to the storage system, which is exactly what Nasuni facilitates.” “There is a marketing war looming between the on-premises filer suppliers and the cloud-centric file services group. Nasuni firmly believes this is approaching and needs the cash to build up its operation and withstand an onslaught from competitors as they switch – as Nasuni thinks they must – to a cloud-centric product strategy.”

From the Nasuni Labs public GitHub repo, the customer downloads to her local desktop a Terraform script for deploying NAC with Azure Cognitive Search. Terraform script has only three required parameters: volume name, service to be integrated with, and frequency of periodic NAC runs. NAC w/NAC Scheduler: Azure Cognitive Search 2. Customer completes a one-time setup of a secret in Azure Key Vault which includes NMC credentials, uploaded volume key, etc. Customers also sets up local Azure credentials NAC Scheduler (Ubuntu VM) 3. Customer runs Terraform script which creates a NAC Scheduler if one doesn’t exist. On NAC Scheduler, a cron job is created which will run a Terraform script to spin up and destroy the Analytics Connector resources. It will also create the Blob Storage destination container and Azure function for moving data into Azure Cognitive Search if neither doesn’t already exit. Nasuni Management Console 5. Script will spin up the Analytics Connector based on defaults found in initial Terraform script or custom parameters passed into the script. At end of run, all temporary resources are destroyed. 4. Script will first validate if the Storage Container and Azure Function function for moving data into Azure Cognitive Search have already been created. if not, it will create them. It will also confirm that Azure Cognitive Search index has been created if not, it will create it. 6. Azure Function is triggered when a new file is created in the Destination container. It indexes the file, sends index to Azure Cognitive Search and then deletes the file from the container Customer’s Azure Subscription Azure KeyVault Azure Cognitive Search

That's why some of us call it the enterprise version of Azure Files. And it’s less expensive, too.
