Mikrotik Video RouterOS enterprise Data Server: storage, networking, computer... ALL-IN-ONE!

Video overview

In this video, MikroTik presents the ROSE Data Server (RDS2216) as an “all-in-one” platform built for teams that want to keep storage and networking in-house, without sacrificing performance. The key idea is consolidation: a single 1U device that can handle high-speed switching, centralized storage, and workload hosting through containers.

The video highlights why the RDS2216 fits modern enterprise edge and small data center environments, especially where fast uplinks, high-density storage, and predictable ownership costs matter. It’s positioned as a practical alternative to piecing together separate switching and storage appliances, with management unified under MikroTik’s ecosystem.

If you’re planning a deployment that needs a strong backbone for storage traffic and flexible connectivity for servers and racks, the RDS2216 is showcased as a purpose-built option that keeps performance headroom for growth while maintaining a clean, rack-friendly footprint.
