We are happy to provide our customers with the best price/performance ratio and introduce the following upgrades and enhancements in StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS V6.
Synchronous mirroring between THREE clustered SAN/NAS nodes: 99.9999% uptimeNEW
StarWind now offers synchronous mirroring between three nodes of an HA cluster. Thus, StarWind makes your SAN resilient against hardware or software failures, and ensures 50% higher performance (compared to 2-node configuration).With highly available StarWind storage, you can safely upgrade your system and maintain or replace your hardware with truly ZERO downtime. During the maintenance or single node failure the storage cluster stays redundant and survives double fault.
Asynchronous replication over WAN (with acceleration): N+1 configurationNEW
StarWind introduces a N+1 configuration that you can use to build on-site two/three-node HA cluster with off-site replication. StarWind built-in WAN Replication creates a “last resort” disaster recovery (DR) site that can be located miles away from the main datacenter. It keeps a mirror copy of your data; if your primary storage cluster fails, you can initiate a recovery process from your remote DR site. Such a N+1 configuration provides outstanding protection for your data and enables you to meet Recovery Point Objective (RPO) at all times.StarWind WAN acceleration technology is based on deduplication, snapshots, and compression. Their combined power ensures 50x–100x reduction of transmitted data and allows for the use of slow WAN connection.
Data deduplication
StarWind delivers in-line target-side deduplication. With this powerful technology StarWind users save up to 90% of disk space required for their data. As a result, StarWind maximazes resource utilization and minimizes disk space consumption.StarWind dedupe drastically cuts down storage space requirements and the amount of redundant data across datacenter, decreasing storage expenses regardless of the data growth.
The StarWind company is attentive to the needs of its customers. Therefore, StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS V6 provides one of the most asked-for scenarios - high availability on deduplicated target!
Clustered scale-out NASNEW
Clustered NAS (NFS & CIFS/SMB) is configured on top of highly available iSCSI SAN. StarWind consolidates file and block level data in the common storage pool, thereby creating unified SAN/NAS storage.Consolidated storage simplifies configuration and maintenance and increases storage utilization rates. It has lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and reduces initial capital and recurrent operational expenditures.
Storage aggregationNEW
StarWind enables use of NAS for the creation of iSCSI targets, and thereby saves money on the purchase of new hard drives for local purposes.With StarWind you can use NAS resources to create a reliable and sophisticated iSCSI SAN. Thus, StarWind aggregates storage for the virtualization infrastructure and file sharing for a company.
StarWind is simple to deploy and easy to use
StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS V6 is a hardware agnostic-solution that uses common off-the-shelf hardware (COTS). The software can be installed and configured within minutes on any industry standard server.You can easily apply your existing servers and network infrastructure in order to save money and avoid purchase of a new hardware. If you decide to buy brand-new hardware, you can pick up any vendor depending on your choice: with StarWind there is no vendor lock-in.
StarWind provides Centralized Management Console and self-guided wizards, and it has a user-friendly intuitive interface.
