VMware Virtual SAN was created for VMware vSphere® environments as the first policy-driven storage product to automate manual storage tasks. This latest release, launched in conjunction with VMware vSphere 6, offers numerous benefits that NexentaConnect takes advantage of:
· All-Flash Architecture
· New Virtual SAN high performance snapshots and clones
· Rack Awareness for greater resiliency
· Expanded scalability in blade environments through direct-attached JBODs
· 2x greater scale with 64 node cluster support
· 2x-4x more IOPS making VMware Virtual SAN and NexentaConnect more suitable for high performance apps which require consistent response times
Sitting on top of VMware Virtual SAN, NexentaConnect for VMware Virtual SAN operates with and augments VMware Virtual SAN by adding enterprise-class Windows and UNIX based file services without the need for any additional hardware purchases. NexentaConnect for Virtual SAN completes hyper-converged VMware Virtual SAN deployments by utilising local storage in servers to deliver high performance NFS and SMB file services to virtual machines and virtual desktops, all managed through a single VMware vCentre Server™ console.
Gaetan Castelein, Senior Director, Storage Product Management & Marketing, VMware, said, “Nexenta supports our vision of software-defined storage through which VMware plans to bring to storage the same efficiency that VMware vSphere brought to compute. VMware Virtual SAN is at the core of VMware’s strategy for storage. NexentaConnect for VMware Virtual SAN complements VMware Virtual SAN, creating a hyper-converged unified storage solution for the data centre of the future."
Thomas Cornely, Chief Product Officer, Nexenta added, “Today’s announcement enables joint customers of NexentaConnect for VMware Virtual SAN and VMware Virtual SAN 6 to receive support from day one, enabling streamlined management of file services, recovery nodes and compatibility to VMware EVO: RAIL™, which combines compute, networking and storage resources in an all-in-one hyper-converged infrastructure appliance, and ultimately doubles the performance.”
