StarWind ISCSI SAN is today's answer to any IT project

StarWind iSCSI SAN is a cost-effective IP SAN solution that over 30,000 users in over 100 countries have deployed for a variety of uses:

  • High Availability Storage
    Typical IT environments require High Availability storage and in the case that the first storage appliance fails, a second storage node will continue to operate properly without any interruption. If you are configuring server clusters for high availability then you will also want to cluster your storage boxes to eliminate any single point of failure both on the server application side and on storage.
  • Server Clustering
    Windows Server 2008 clustering allows two or more servers to be linked together to improve system and data availability. High Availability server clusters significantly improve availability and performance beyond what is possible with a single server. Typical configurations allow you to create a shared virtual SAN that will present itself to the Microsoft Windows cluster server and can be combined with the StarWind Server iSCSI SAN to work with Microsoft SQL Server, MS Exchange, VMware ESX and other applications to deliver the highest level of reliability and availability.
  • Server Virtualization
    Storage virtualization is the logical next step to complete a VMware, Hyper-V or XenServer virtual environment. Combining iSCSI SANs and system virtualization allows IT organization to improve overall levels of performance, lower overall costs and increase the levels of system and data protection.
  • Shared Storage
    An IP SAN enables you to rapidly adapt to evolving networked storage needs. Using iSCSI protocol, the StarWind SAN communicates between servers and clients to deliver shared storage on your network without the need for expensive or proprietary SAN or NAS solutions.
  • Business Continuity
    In today's global economy, even a single server failure or power outage to a remote office can cause a critical loss of data as well as losses to your bottom line. Business continuity planning supported by iSCSI SAN ensures that your data will be continually available and always protected.
  • Disaster Recovery
    Disruptive events are not limited only to natural disasters like hurricanes and floods. Did you know that 30% of all system failures result from human error and 40% from hardware failure? It's easy to see why disaster recovery planning is one of the top priorities for any IT department. To mitigate that risk, StarWind provides a highly reliable and cost effective iSCSI SAN that is an ideal fit for any disaster recovery plan.
