Virtual Server Storage with EqualLogic SANS
Industry's leading family of iSCSI-based midrange enterprise
SAN solutions
Today's IT managers spend significant time and energy dealing with an unwieldy assortment
of applications, operating systems, and server environments. Increasingly, managers
are employing virtualization technologies to re-engineer their IT infrastructures;
results include reduced operational complexity, increased flexibility to address
new business needs, and significantly lower costs. With an EqualLogic iSCSI SAN,
you can achieve the full portability and management benefits of a virtual infrastructure
– without virtual storage, virtual server capabilities are limited.
Virtual SAN Infrastructure for Performance, Scalability, and
Simplicity
Virtual storage for virtual servers
EqualLogic virtualizes the entire SAN to simplify deployment and ongoing management.
EqualLogic volumes are automatically provisioned as a single, scalable pool of storage
that leverages all storage resources within the SAN. Even as workload demands shift
or migrate between virtual machines and their physical host servers, EqualLogic's
virtualized SAN automatically applies storage resources where and when they are
without administrative intervention or manual tuning.
Cost-effective, enterprise-class networked storage
With many workloads aggregated on fewer resources in a virtualized environment,
enterprise-class reliability, performance, and features cannot be compromised. PS
Series solutions are built for enterprise deployment, providing 99.999% availability
through a fully redundant, hot-pluggable system architecture. Volumes are RAID-protected,
and through advanced system and disk monitoring, faults can be quickly recognized
and addressed without downtime. Each array includes a storage tiers and pools allows
physical storage resources to be re-allocated to meet changing business needs or
to be specifically dedicated to individual workloads.
