Celerra is a high performance IP storage platform. It delivers NAS (Network Attached Storage) and iSCSI capabilities to consolidate application storage and file servers in either an integrated configuration, or as a gateway connected to a CLARiiON or Symmetrix storage system.

Celerra allows file system access through NFS, CIFS and ISCSI protocols. The Celerra Server creates different file systems, as listed in Celerra File System types , depending on how they are used.
