Shared Storage for Everyone

Enjoy the benefits of shared storage even if you don’t have shared storage hardware. For many SMBs, virtualization means dealing with complex shared storage for the first time. Not anymore. VMware vSphere Storage Appliance provides high availability and automation capabilities of vSphere to SMBs without shared storage hardware.

Set it up in just five clicks

Before vSphere Storage Appliance, implementing virtualization required specialized knowledge in shared storage hardware. For example, a SAN configuration may require an FC Switch, a Server HBA, FC cables, and an external RAID Storage hardware. But with VSA, installation involves just a few mouse clicks and entering the desired IP address. And because VSA is integrated with vCenter Server, you can manage your entire IT environment in one place.

Get high availability without shared storage hardware

vSphere Storage Appliance runs on multiple servers simultaneously, so you can have the confidence that data is available to any of your workloads, even when a server fails. With vSphere’s availability features, you can restart virtual machines automatically when a server fails, use fault tolerant protection so applications run uninterrupted, and perform maintenance with zero impact to the end user by migrating applications live from one server to another using vMotion. Eliminate any single point of failure within your IT environment.

Get world-class datacenter capabilities

vSphere Storage Appliance empowers smaller IT environments with the performance and efficiency of world-class datacenters. Get the most out of your hardware by pooling workloads for higher utilization. Then use the unique set-and-forget automation features of vSphere to guarantee application service levels for your most important applications, without constantly monitoring compute, network, or storage resources.
