RDS is a high-performance, all-in-one storage, 100G networking, and container platform designed for enterprise environments. Featuring 20 U.2 NVMe storage slots and a special RouterOS Edition for Storage & Compute (ROSE).

TAKE BACK CONTROL.
Stop relying on the cloud. Own your infrastructure.
Third parties control your data. Should they? Your business, your files, your future – handed over to external providers with unclear policies and unknown risks.
Introducing the Rose Data Server (RDS2216) – a high-performance, all-in-one storage, networking, and container platform designed for enterprise environments. Secure, scalable, and under your control.

20 x U.2 NVMe's
Ultra-fast, high-density storage for demanding workloads.

100G high-speed networking
2× 100G QSFP28 ports, 4× 25G SFP28 ports, 4× 10G SFP+ ports, 2× 10G Ethernet ports, and an extra SFF-8644 interface for flexible connectivity.

16-core 2 GHz ARM CPU + 32GB DDR4 RAM
High-performance processing for networking, storage, and virtualization.

Massive energy savings
Cut power consumption and heat output while maintaining high performance – an ecofriendly solution for data-heavy environments.

Runs Router OS
The most flexible, modular networking OS. Supports advanced storage capabilities, including exporting block devices over NVMe-TCP, encryption layers, and modular storage configurations for scalable infrastructure. No subscriptions. No paywalls.

Container-ready
Run MinIO, Nextcloud, Shinobi, Frigate, and other OCI compliant containers with ease. We’ve added two USB ports for additional devices and further adaptability.

Includes dual hot-swappable power supplies
Ensuring uninterrupted operation and quick replacement without unnecessary downtime.

Self-hosted MinIO cloud storage
S3-compatible, ultra-fast, no vendor lock-in. Your cloud. Your terms. No hidden fees or security risks – just enterprise-grade object storage you control.

Enterprise cloud hosting
Secure document storage with full NextCloud support. Built-in BTRFS enterprise features – snapshots, compression, and subvolume transfers – ensure efficiency, scalability, and data integrity. Give your employees peace of mind when they create, edit and share important documents!

High-speed backup & database clusters
RAID, iSCSI, NVMe-TCP, and TCG-Opal self-encrypting drives ensure secure, high-performance storage. Designed for PostgreSQL, MariaDB, and mission-critical workloads with near-instant failover and future-proof scalability as NVMe technology advances.

Containerized infrastructure
Run VMs, automate workloads, and build scalable systems. For memory-intensive applications, built-in swap support prevents out-of-memory failures, ensuring smooth performance even under heavy workloads.

Branch office storage expansion
Branch office routers (like hAP ax2) can mount NFS, SMB, or NVMe-TCP storage—no need for local USB/SD storage. Need fine-tuned control? RouterOS lets you encrypt, format, and share storage over multiple protocols—modular and scalable, just like your network. This enables hundreds of routers to run containerized apps, store logs, and access shared data—without requiring local storage.

Auto-encrypting storage
TCG-Opal self-encrypting drives for hardware-level security. When hardware encryption isn’t an option, built-in block device encryption ensures data protection without performance trade-offs—effortless GDPR compliance.

Private social media hosting
Host your own Pixelfed, Loops, or Matrix network. No tracking. No ads. No external interference—true digital independence. The world is moving local for a reason.

ONE DEVICE.
ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.
It’s a breakthrough in flexible networking and storage for the most demanding enterprise environments. Reliable 100-Gigabit connectivity. Ultra-fast NVMe storage support. Containers. Enterprise-grade performance.
