 So we're here at the Synology and who are you? Hi, my name is Jonathan So you have a lot of NAS. Are you the world leader in NAS? Yes. I think we're in the industry that we have We're really strong player at NAS Already, yeah. I believe our user interface is the most friendly one. It's really easy to use You have some nice apps and you have a lot of updates for how long? If I buy this NAS, how long are you going to update it? For five years. Five years guarantee. Not guarantee But so far we try to do it for five years because there are a lot of resources that we need to put in to keep every user's NAS updated So even at the newest DSM 5.2 the NAS you bought at 2010 still be so we'll be willing to upgrade to 5.2 Yes, 210 still be updated. Yes, it's still updated to DSM So long time ago and it's still being updated. Yes So that means you have a bunch of guys doing that right? Yes. It's a lot of work. Yes In our company 70 70% of our employees are software developers. So 70% is for our upgrade team Well everyone in the team that keep that we try to add more new functions and new functionalities into our packages Did you ever have security problems? We used to have one hard lead Not hard lead, but there's a 130 common code signal locker But that's not as result from users. We have a patch already that already fix that issues But some of the user late enough did not upgrade your NAS Frequent enough. So that's do you have all the customers email so you can tell them upgrade upgrade upgrade? Yes I do not We have the we have the email but we can never force user to upgrade right when they when they stream a video or something You should stream a little advertising automatically in the beginning that says you need to upgrade your firmware Yes, I think after that after that incident Users are more aware of the that should keep their NAS always up to date Is it difficult to update you just go on the UI and you click and updates? Yes, you just go into our control panel and go to our There's a settings our software Version you just click the bottom to check if there's any new update if there is one just just hit update That's it and then machine will automatically download install and reboot So for many years now you are using Marvell a lot of Marvell CPUs aren't processor Marvell, right? Yes to do NAS Yes, so Which Marvell processors you were using? Oh, we are shooting Armada Armada and actually Wide range of selections because in my mother they are different CPUs as well Yeah, yeah, so and then now you also releasing some some NAS with a Annapurna Annapurna so this is a new model. Yes, so what are we looking at here? So it's a quad core ARM Cortex a 15 maybe or it's pretty powerful a 15 So it's the most powerful that can be pretty much in 32-bit ARM processor. Yes quad core. So that means there's a lot of performance. So what can you do compared to previous generation? The biggest jump from this model is the encryption so that even if we encrypt it We still over 200 megabytes per second on reading How fast was it before? Before The previous model previous that we use Intel model that does not have our encryption engine The performance is about 70 to 60 megabytes per second So it's almost faster than Intel almost three times faster than the previous Intel generations So how much did you use Intel only a few times or a lot in our heart in our higher generation models? They hire a sector of the model they use Intel solutions, but in our consumer products We tend to use a model as well. So the users might be small business They want to have a lot of encrypted data. They don't want to have it open so people can steal it Yes, so they encrypt it with a very high encryption Quality yes, we offer 8 years to 56 so it's almost near a military grade encryption So it's pretty much impossible to yes You will take a supercomputer like a month to just calculate the key to decrypt the file It wouldn't take a supercomputer like billions of years No, well not barely of years But I was I think I thought anyone would have access to a supercomputer to do that source of calculations only Obama or something. Yeah, all right, so and then How much it cost we actually don't have the price set for this model yet It's planning to come up and appeal for of this year. So is this the high end? This is low end Yeah, this is lower. It's also on a corner. Yes Is it also on Cortex a 15 yes, so but they look the same but this different and So in the previous generation if you want something that looks like this The previous one is how much it's $200 or around 200 to $300 and you have some cheaper stuff, too Right. Yes, you should around. Yeah, let's go If we go over here, this is S216 SE stands for special edition. This is our Most the cheapest model that we can that we can purchase right now. It's really light Yes, really light because it doesn't it does that offer a hard swappable design like this one You can simply pop the hard drive in but if you want to unload the hard drive you have to take out those two screws open up the box like this and then What is the CPU here on the CPU is using a matter So I'm out and how's the performance is it okay? The difference is okay for daily use or like simply the file storage within the network Is it better than my five-year-old? Synology I believe so yes, and so what kind of price are we talking on here? This one would be on real retail price at around 150 years dollar to 150 130 to 150 without the hot disk Yes, without this. Let's let's go around that because you have some pretty cool applications Okay, are you showing this somewhere? I'm sure this one This year we have an impact implement a new application called Docker But so what we're looking at here is that we can run actually multiple DSM's within one Docker So that's a given our environment such as in the score environment. So this is web-based. Yes This is always base, but it's local web Connecting not over the internet, but just locally right now it's locally But all it seems away in the demo you make so you could go over the way. Yes We could look at our internet. So let's do it just simply run another This station using our like we can run multiple this nation within one hour So we're looking at we're logging in from multiple points and we have multiple DS that is running at this moment. So we can actually run what's going on here So this we actually have four systems that is running within one hour So each we can give we can set up a completely different user space different RAM We can isolate the RAM isolate the storage like virtualization Yes, it's like virtualization of our own operating system called DSM Which is running on this arm processor right here, right? This one is an Intel Intel But you can do this on the arm. No, not really not ready. Why not because of the limitations of the calculation power No, not so much because it requires it requires Intel API so you're going to run the virtualizations So how much is that one on this one? retail price is about Everything US dollar. Yeah around about five hundred US dollar five hundred US dollar and then you have five hot swappable Yes, you can put eight terabyte eight terabyte eight terabyte eight terabyte eight terabyte. That's correct And you have you for this one that the model name is 15 That means you can connect two extra external external hard drive Instinctions so you can connect up to 15 So you can have some rate arrays, what do you call it? We call it expansion units Expansion units in each of them have five five. Yeah, and there's no CPU or something in the expansion unit No, it's just like you what is it? It's just like we go to go through it using E-SATA. So that's the interface that we're connecting. And where does it go? Do the back So it goes there, you connect the E-SATA down there and then you can have 15 running on this one. Yes How much is an expansion? Expansion unit, we don't have a price. I don't have the price ready But at this moment, but it's cheaper than an us. Much cheaper. Yes. What is this? This is our newest decoder So it provides up to six thirty six channels HD live views So one simple box that only comes to five watts of power But you have the ability to run more than thirty six channels live view in the real time So one of the uses for our Synology is recording security camera footage. Yes, and then The whole system would also decode right here Yes, that's right So the point of this you can put this small box at the front desk or for the surveillance personnel to have live view monitors But but keep the NAS in a different like a more secure location. Let's say the server room or or like The place where you keep all these electronic devices So you think you can stream up to six thirty six channels up to your up to your front desk There's a little bit of a lag or no? Yes, a little bit right now because all of them are recording and it's Right now the internet is really it's really jogging Okay, I was going over the internet. Can we just go around a bit over here? Yeah Are you showing you our application? Okay, do you have this crazy application? What is the DS router? It's a router. It's an application so that you can change the settings on to your So you're making a router now. Yes. Is this your new product? Yes. This is our newest product. You just launched it now We have a first time show this in the secret So you are making a router why the reason that we feel that All about us has to go through a router or a switch to connect to the internet So the reason that we're going making a router is that we make sure the perfect compatibility with our nas devices And we feel like the nas All of the all of our routers in the market today has really hard interface and they are really hard to use especially the parental control or the The speed limits is really hard to set up Since we are really good at making our own operating system, so we have a new operating system for routers called SRN So what you're looking at is the setup page for the router So you can go to the status, see 5GHz, 2.4GHz While the settings, of course you can go to the current setup So this is the current connected devices And set a schedule and it's really simple and easy to allow or disallow this person to use the internet So it's all picture and graphic design Can you uh, you can even control You can go on the ipad and say that youtube is not allowed or special application You can actually control the apps of the kid and say the app for games Is okay until 6 p.m. And then you go to sleep, right? That's correct. So you go to your traffic control So you set up one of the android devices that say probably your kid's Kids smartphone So just go to edit So you can set an uploading or Whoa, you can set the speeds You can set the guaranteed speeds and the maximum bandwidth for specific apps. Yes, and then we can create app rules So right now it's actually filtering the applications that's going through this device in real time But you can also select from list of building applications That's a you don't want to browse cnn or facebook facebook chat You can select the name of the application And set up the speed limit for that app on this device Whoa That's really impressive. Nobody's doing this, right? This is uh, this is what the obama is doing nobody else You're doing deep packet inspection. Yes on the router. Yes And we're offering to uh, and this this model is not it's not the price for this model It's not going to be really really high end like super expensive. So we're targeting a mid-range router like $99 On the mrsp is around 150 to 200 us dollar 150 to 200. Yes, it gets a little bit hot. What kind of process are you using? When you're seeing uh from brockham one of the processes from brockham is a core processor A new arm processor from qualcomm. Yes to do To do that kind of stuff. Yes, and you want a price for that or no? This is a price you got for this. Yes for bc award The golden award for this year who's bc It's very nice I should be giving awards how much you would pay for my award I'm gonna talk about it later. Yeah Anyways, but on this device, we actually have a package center So you'll still be able to host your own videos for the albums right of your routers So we because we have a usb ports usb 3 usb 3 That's fast. Is it is it using the usb 3 speed? Oh, yes, it is And we have an sd card slot so you can put your most common and ss4 Files onto the router and then use our package center To host the videos host the pictures host the files both from your router Host on the internet and host locally both And all the different protocols like dlna and all that stuff. Yes and chromecast and uh, all everything I'm not sure about chromecast support on the middle station because it's harder to do transcoding on the On the router. Is it transcoding? It's not transcoding not transcoding. Yes, but how about that expansion module for 10 more hard drives That'll be awesome if it could work here, but this that's a saddle one. You don't have a usb one No, we don't have a usb one, but someone could connect the usb driver I don't think it's compatible with this router at this time. It's just one 8gb. That's it. Yes And then you have so you use it as a NAS also It's like a miniature NAS that we include the function of a router and the NAS together And so it doesn't have the fastest Wi-Fi that's on the market and stuff like that The Wi-Fi we're using 1800 So that's like a mid-range Of the ac around ac Specifications and we have special features that That's say if at night you don't want your kids to access the Wi-Fi So you have a simple physical switch to switch off all the wireless connections So it becomes like a switch Not a router So this is like a switch to turn off all the wireless connections on this device Nice so that that can still be connected downstairs. Yes, but the kids can go to sleep Yes, and we have another cool feature that we have a schedule on off leds Because with some people find out that those flashing leds at the room is really annoying Yes, some some so we can send a schedule to turn it on or off or turn out on the mobile app So if you push this bottom right now the all of the LCDs should be turned off We're heading with some interference. The competitor is trying to disrupt your app Can you show anything else about your apps because this is DS router, but you have DS video You have DS music. Oh, I know why because I turned off the Wi-Fi. Oh, you turned off the Wi-Fi. Yeah Yeah, so actually you were Showing you function on it Yeah, it's a it's a it's an iPad. Yeah, it's not your fault But it's a glitch. Okay. That's a glitch. That's okay So wait, so on the mobile app we have ability to also monitor the traffic control We're able to see all the connected devices in real time. So you would be able to see all those Like you were seeing over here So this is the router right now and we can turn off and see what they're seeing right now like we can see them What kind of protocols that you that they're using so let's say we have four current connected devices You can click on one of them It's loading There's a competitor just over there. He's doing uh the QNAP people. They're trying to make it break Yeah, but normally in here you can set up if it's if it's and or like you can set up the priority to get The router can set up top priority medium priority or lowest priority To have the internet connections right on the iPad Do you have the other DS apps? You have them the DS file. So this one is to check out all the files that you have on the NAS. Yes We have to connect this feature and then you have DS photo watching photos. Yes, and these are So basically Among your 70 percent of engineers Software engineers, uh, there's some good apps being made. Yes, and millions of people are using them, right? Yes that's correct Is everything there or much more what's gonna happen in the future? In the future we plan to have At this moment, we're going to we're just going to put out all of our resource on this router and our newest products Yeah, because um, this is a new a new segment that we decided to start doing it this year So we have many there's many routers in the world And i'm sure there's many parents many fathers who want to play like they're the NSA a little bit They want to see what happens in the home or maybe even the companies and uh It would be uh The employees would be get a little bit pissed at Synology maybe of course because right now you can see what they are seeing When they're working, right? So you can see some some workers is spend more time watching youtube at work or spend too much time on facebook You can all see all of that information. It's available within our router. Some some employees are Spending the whole day on facebook. Yes chatting. Yes, and now the boss will be able to cut them off. Yes using our router So that's going to increase activity. It's great. Of course. Yes
