Storage Virtualization: DataCore announced the key improvements in its software for storage and VMware The next release of storage virtualization products, presents a significant improvement of performance, availability and use of VMware virtual infrastructure for Cannes, France, and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. - March 9, 2009 - Visitors to VMworld Europe in 2009 were among the first to hear about new versions of DataCore SANmelody ™ and SANsymphony ™, virtual storage solutions that translate into increased performance network SAN, high availability and excellent use of disk with extreme simplicity for customers of VMware virtual infrastructure. The new line of DataCore solutions that are VMware Ready Certified ™ was demonstrated in the largest community of virtualization in Europe in Cannes, France.

"Mega Cache" 64-bit to improve the efficiency of the network SAN Among the major new features of SANmelody 3.0 and SANsymphony 7.0 is support for 64-bit cache. "No consolidated data storage, large scale, the cache is king," concludes James Price, vice president of marketing of products and channels of DataCore Software. "DataCore's solutions will support up to 1.0 terabyte (TB) of cache - a nodule. Surpass any other in the market and can be spread linearly with each node added to the structure. "Complete sets of virtual machines can be kept in cache network SAN for a performance never seen before. With the cache, from VMware customers can increase their storage to hundreds of gigabytes to multiple petabytes. Radically simple, high availability and storage without interruption Needless to say pools of storage of such proportions requires a constant flow. Taking this into account, the new enhancements of the product is completely integrated with the solutions radically simple, DataCore's high availability for VMware. DataCore allows only the maintenance, upgrades, expansions and that any faults occurring in parts of the storage infrastructure without incurring problems in applications. "Customers of VMware is increasingly demanding that the various storagerelated disruptions they face when making major migrations of virtual machines, failures and load balancing are eliminated. The solutions offered by DataCore are addressing precisely these interruptions and are critical to make such tasks more practical, "said George Crump, senior analyst of Storage Switzerland. Use total: Requirement of space for storage with dynamic supply [Thin Provision] Both SANmelody and SANsymphony offer the option to dynamically provision virtual disks instead of compromising the physical capacity to create the LUNs for the first time. This is particularly desirable when virtual machines consume only a small part of the total allocated to them. With the new releases, once occupied, the space is automatically endowed
dynamically requested the background after the application or cancel the file systems. Thus, the net returns SAN capacity that may be needed temporarily, optimizing, thus, the use of resources. Universal storage controllers based on Windows Server 2008 By configuring the DataCore software for Windows x86/x64 servers they become universal storage controllers. The ESX servers and virtual machines (VMS) that require storage, connect to the controllers using the DataCore iSCSI or Fiber Channel. All major operating systems such as Windows Server 2003, 2008, Unix, Linux, NetWare and MacOS can enjoy the features of storage virtualization SAN network offered by DataCore. In smaller configurations, the controller DataCore is hosted on a virtual machine as a virtual tool with Virtual Machines of applications. The network SAN is completely virtual and requires no external storage. Settings greater physical servers dedicated to this role of virtualization and usually include both disk drives internal and external matrices. The new launches SANmelody 3.0 and SANsymphony 7.0 had revised its architecture to explore the potential and scalability of the physical and virtual platforms for Windows Server 2008 64-bit controller and universal storage. New support for migration of Hipervisor and greater integration with VMware Virtual Center The "carrier" of DataCore is a new option to save time in the migration of SANmelody 3.0 and SANsymphony 7.0. The carrier migrates files from disk and loads of work between different operating systems, hipervisores and substistemas storage - eliminating lengthy back-ups and restorations due to the complicated format conversions. Moreover, it has a plug-in for Virtual Infrastructure Client to VMware, without cost, which enables administrators to provide, share, duplicate, replicate and expand virtual disks between physical servers and VMS without interruption. All of DataCore packages will be upgraded to VMware 3.0 for SANmelody and SANsymphony 7.0 The DataCore has a number of packages in Business Continuity (BC) and Disaster Recovery (DR) based on SANmelody available for VMware environments, from the Feature Packed BC / DR SAN Virtualization Starter Bundles, the Feature Packed BC / DR 32 Terabytes SAN Virtualization Bundle up the SANsymphony sets of virtually unlimited capacity. The main features include: + Virtual shared disks for high availability + Provision dynamics (thin provisioning) Snapshots + online + Disaster Recovery (DR) + Cache software for high speed
