Storage virtualization
Storage virtualization hides the complexity of the SAN by pooling together all storage devices such that to the user it looks like just one storage device. This also helps IT administrators perform backup and restore tasks much more easily. Some of the other benefits of storage virtualization are:
- Better storage management
- Higher availability
- Increased utilization of storage
- Easy update and expansion, reduced downtime
- Easy backup, restore and DR
However selection of storage virtualization technologies - software and/or hardware needs in-depth understanding of storage hardware, software, virtualization and experience in actual implementation of implementing storage virtualization across different platforms and enterprise environments. It can be a complex task requiring specialized knowledge to design storage virtualization stacks that can stand the test of time and changing technologies.
Bluewave can help you get the best out of Storage Virtualization.
We work with all the major Storage and virtualization vendors. Over the years we have designed and implemented several storage systems spanning multiple technologies and configurations, of which there are several storage virtualization projects. We have executed stand-alone storage virtualization projects as well as storage virtualization as part of larger implementations of Private Cloud. Working with Frontier gives you the assurance that you are partnering with a System Integrator who's been there and done it many times.
