Server Virtualization

Virtualization and consolidation are driving tremendous growth in capacity requirements and typically operate over expensive primary storage. Recently, many IT organizations started adopting NFS-based server virtualization implementations due to reduced costs and complexity vs. SAN implementations.

Server virtualization typically generates very high random-access I/O loads and has multiple copies for DR, backup, testing and many other purposes. Storwize real-time compression technology redefines the economics of server virtualization and provides the following key benefits:

Data reduction  
Reduced capacity required for guest OS image files (incl. OS, data files and swap/paging)
Consolidate more Virtual Machines per storage array
Reduced replication costs
Fully transparent to VMware configuration
Improves VMware performance
Shorter backup & restore times
Enable DR services to more Virtual Machines
