DataCore SANsymphony-V Features & Benefits Summary

Feature Benefits

Virtual Disk PoolingConsolidates like or unlike disks - enabling cost efficient tiering of resources by price/performance and capacity

Thin ProvisioningIncreases storage utilization and enables cost savings by allocating just enough space just-in-time

High Speed Adaptive CachingAccelerates disk I/O and business-critical application performance by empowering existing storage assets

Auto-TieringMakes intelligent and automatic usage optimizations based on cost and performance across different types of storage

Sync Mirroring (Continuous Availability)

Enables non-stop business operations and greater uptime through real-time I/O mirroring over Metro-wide distances

Asynchronous Remote Replication

Fast, simple, remote-site disaster recovery and migration; Maintains distant copies up-to-date without impacting local performance

Online SnapshotCaptures point-in-time images quickly across storage devices; Efficiently clone system images, speed-up recovery and enable off-line analysis

Continuous Data Protection & Recovery

Businesses can roll back to a previous point-in-time prior to a disaster, virus attack or other disruptive event without doing an explicit backup

Virtual Disk MigrationTransparently moves and migrates data; Allows non-stop business operations during data center relocations, VM moves, system refreshes

Unified Storage (NAS/SAN) Supports fast, high-availability NAS for file sharing [NFS/SMB (CIFS)]

Load BalancingAutomates and improves response times and throughput for greater productivity by overcoming typical storage-related bottlenecks

RAID StripingProvides better protection and performance by spreading I/O across multiple disk spindles

Cloud GatewayAccess Cloud storage from different vendors; Extends disk pool to external clouds; Gateway supports auto-tiering to cloud storage

Analysis & ReportingOffers real-time and historical analysis, ‘heat maps’ to identify I/O bottlenecks; Reporting for capacity planning, tuning and asset tracking

Centralized ManagementGreater productivity and administrative efficiency; Infrastructure-wide control and monitoring of pooled storage resources from one console
