BURLINGTON, MA, February 05, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Starwind from StarWind Software, a global leader in storage virtualization and a pioneer in iSCSI storage, provides a highly reliable and cost effective iSCSI SAN that is an ideal fit for any business continuity and disaster recovery plan. Administrators can spread storage nodes across racks, rooms, floors, or buildings. Additionally, StarWind allows for storage replication across the WAN (to a remote metro area) and this enables administrators to protect their storage against any outage that affects a single location. StarWind cost-effectively provides reliable business continuity and disaster recovery of mission-critical data with continuous availability, flexibility and substantially lower costs for super shared storage solution for VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V and Other Server Applications.
StarWind's true active-active high availability (HA) architecture provides continuous and non-disruptive access to storage in the event of failure by synchronously mirroring data between two active storage appliances, or nodes, in real time. This technology is important to IT professionals because it eliminates a single point of failure. If a disk, power or even an entire storage node fails, the redundant storage node will take over and will continue actively operating without any disruption, ensuring that storage is available and accessible on the network.
StarWind software creates an "iscsi san" that can be installed on existing industry-standard servers without additional infrastructure investments. iSCSI SAN Software is ideal for SMBs, or remote offices of large companies, which may have budget limitations and physical space constraints, but have performance requirements that can only be satisfied by a high-performance IP SAN.
StarWind also enhances data protection in VMware environments with features like mirroring, replication and CDP/snapshot capabilities. It is a solution that grows with a company's need as capacity is easily added without additional license purchases because StarWind is a software-only solution, installable on any industry-standard server with easily expanded drive bays.
