Synology Unveils Next-Gen Data Solutions at 2024 Expo
Synology Premieres Advanced Data Protection, Management, and Surveillance Solutions at Solution Exhibition 2024
Synology recently hosted its Solution Exhibition 2024, an industry-focused event showcasing the latest innovations in data protection, storage management, hybrid cloud integration, and intelligent surveillance. The exhibition demonstrated how Synology’s expanding ecosystem empowers enterprises and IT teams to address modern demands for resilience, operational efficiency, and scalable infrastructure.
With digital transformation accelerating across industries, organizations face complex challenges including data growth, cyber threats, compliance pressures, and distributed workflows. Synology’s latest portfolio spanning advanced backup, centralized data management, next-generation surveillance, and integrated hybrid cloud architecture highlights a unified approach to solving these critical issues.
Next-Level Data Protection With ActiveProtect
At the heart of Synology’s demonstrations was ActiveProtect, a next-generation data protection platform that unifies backup, monitoring, and recovery into a cohesive framework. ActiveProtect simplifies enterprise backup operations with features such as:
Automated snapshot scheduling and retention policies
Tamper-resistant backups with immutability
Centralized job monitoring and alerting
Integrated ransomware detection and anomaly insights
ActiveProtect bridges legacy backups and modern compliance requirements, helping businesses maintain continuous protection without adding administrative complexity. The platform’s centralized dashboards and smart policies make it easier for IT teams to enforce governance and align data retention with regulatory standards.
Comprehensive Data Management in Hybrid Environments
Synology’s commitment to hybrid cloud workflows was a major theme throughout the 2024 exhibition. With hybrid environments becoming the norm, the company showcased enhancements that unify on-premise NAS systems, hybrid cloud backup tiers, and edge computing workflows.
Highlights included:
Synology C2 Cloud Enhancements
The Synology C2 cloud platform now offers deeper integration with local NAS environments for hybrid data protection, long-term retention, and secure off-site replication. Organizations can now choose how workloads are balanced between local performance and cloud redundancy without sacrificing control.
Hybrid Share Performance Uplifts
Improved cross-site caching, upload acceleration, and metadata synchronization ensure that distributed teams working on collaborative file stores experience fast and reliable access regardless of geographic location.
These advancements reinforce Synology’s vision of data mobility, enabling enterprises to unify data protection policies across a distributed IT landscape.
AI-Empowered Surveillance and Analytics
Another cornerstone of the exhibition was Synology’s expanding surveillance suite, built to deliver secure, scalable, and intelligent video management. The platform integrates with NAS and hybrid cloud environments, allowing organizations to:
Deploy centralized camera management.
Enable AI-assisted detection for events and analytics.
Store long-term footage with secure retention policies
Support secure remote viewing and conditional access
Synology’s surveillance solution provides flexible deployment options for enterprises of all sizes, from single-site office campuses to multi-location retail or industrial environments.
Enterprise-Oriented Networking and Storage
Beyond software innovations, Synology highlighted hardware platforms optimized for enterprise workloads:
Enterprise-grade NAS and SAN arrays with expandable capacity
High-performance storage nodes for virtualization and database workloads
Active-active controller designs for redundancy and uptime.
NVMe flash acceleration for I/O-intensive applications
Paired with Synology’s DSM operating system, these hardware offerings give IT teams the performance headroom and reliability necessary for mission-critical workflows.
Driving Efficient Backup and Compliance
A unified approach to compliance and governance was another standout topic at the event. Synology’s portfolio simplifies data stewardship with tools that enforce retention, access control, encryption, audit logging, and secure deletion. These controls help organizations align with regulatory frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, ISO, and industry-specific mandates without creating additional silos or administrative overhead.
By combining advanced backup capabilities with policy-driven automation and compliance reporting, Synology enables enterprises to demonstrate governance while focusing on innovation rather than manual backup chores.
