Storage virtualisation software, VMware vSAN, networks virtual storage. Therefore, it delivers much lower latency than disk arrays and does not need specialised hardware.
Faults occurring in one virtual storage node do not disrupt the operation of the rest, not even during a node replacement.
For individual environments or objects, you can independently configure the level of performance required based on the desired IOPS.
vSAN technology enables data replication across physical disks, nodes, or entire clusters, creating redundant data.
Virtual storage can scale much more flexibly than physical storage, making the infrastructure easily scalable.
Containerisation and microservices-based software architecture is a trend that vSAN is moving towards.
Conventional NFS usually means SPOF, but VMware vSAN has its own file system, guaranteeing high availability.
A solution built on vSAN can efficiently run on standard servers, significantly saving infrastructure costs.
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI), like the cloud, is based on virtualisation? However, in contrast, it actually incorporates computing power, storage, or some network elements into a single system, allowing for easy scaling and convenient maintenance. VMware vSAN is one of the technologies used for HCI architecture.
As a Dell partner, we source specialised hardware suitable for hyperconverged infrastructure that works well with VMware’s cutting-edge software. In addition, our experienced team of cloud architects design vSAN solutions from scratch to ensure everything works as expected.

Support for microservices, highly available NFS or building private clusters. This is just part of the reasons that led us at MasterDC to deploy software-defined storage on vSAN for the cloud. What else will the new architecture provide to customers?
It does not seem much practical to store all data on a hard disk server. External data storages are hence a popular way to extent the server capacity. Nevertheless, their features and initial costs differ considerably. Therefore we summarise their pros and cons in order to make the choice easier for you.
Do you remember the furor caused by the game Pokemon Go? That was one of the first massive experiences of contact with augmented reality technology that the world had experienced. Beyond the Pokemon Go´s madness, this showed us what our interaction with the internet of things might look like in the near future. Imagine being able […]
