Druckerei Rindt previously used a single node Dell ESX server with local Datastore and VMWare hypervisor. The system presented a single point of failure, had slow performance rates and did not offer enough capacity to accommodate future storage needs. Druckerei Rindt was impressed with StorMagic SvSAN’s reliability and cost efficiency in a multi-node hardware storage solution.
“StorMagic SvSAN Advanced Edition added significant reliability and performance improvements into our environment,” said Sebastian Jerabeck, executive director, Druckerei Rindt GmbH & Co KG. “StorMagic’s Predictive Storage Caching feature reduces I/O latency by identifying hot data, and ensuring that it is in cache.”
Running on two Dell R740xD Servers, they chose SvSAN Advanced Edition, which unlocks datacenter class features like SSD caching and data encryption. In their new configuration, approximately ten virtual machines (VMs) reside on SvSAN shared storage per server. Windows Server 2012 R2-2019 are the guest VMs. The SvSAN cluster is managed through a WebGUI and VMWare’s vCenter plugin.
Druckerei Rindt chose StorMagic SvSAN for several reasons, including:
● High Performance- Druckerei Rindt is experiencing a greater than 50 percent improvement in performance rates compared to its previous solution.
● High Availability-Druckerei Rindt GmbH has experienced 100 percent uptime since installing SvSAN.
● Cost-Effectiveness- SvSAN eliminates physical SANs by converging compute and storage into a lightweight commodity x86 server footprint, thereby dramatically lowering costs. StorMagic SvSAN is on average 50 percent less expensive than traditional physical SAN alternatives.
● Added Redundancy-Physical SANs must be taken offline to run maintenance operations and routine updates. With SvSAN, downtime is virtually eliminated.
