So what is there in the new world compared to the old NearStore?

Hi,

I am thinking of building a new and third cluster on a third location for backups only. Previously we had NearStore and R200's to accept lots of concurrent transfers. 

Is there a way to turn a cDOT cluster into something similar? As in a backup only cluster accepting lots of concurrent transfers say 100+ and storing them om NL-SAS drives.

with cluster mode we don't have nearstore feature anymore.

Maximum number of concurrent transfers is related to platform model

Most of platform supports at least 100 simultaneous transfers.

However I would recommend you to contact your account team for better clarifying that
