DataCore Software's SANsymphony-V Garners Widespread Momentum

DataCore Software, a provider of storage virtualization software, said that its newest software release SANsymphony-V has garnered widespread momentum and praise. It is designed to remove the storage-related barriers that prevent IT organizations from realizing the financial and operational goals of their virtualization initiatives.

SANsymphony-V is a version of DataCore’s SANsymphony storage virtualization software that is tuned specifically for virtual server and virtual desktop environments. It can also be used in physical environments, as well as a mix of virtual and physical.

TMCnet recently reported that the solution is capable of solving difficult storage-related challenges introduced by server and desktop virtualization, cloud computing and more general expansion, business continuity, and disaster recovery initiatives.

One of the clients of DataCore acknowledged that SANsymphony-V has made its end-to-end virtualization initiatives a reality. Storage virtualization with SANsymphony-V rounded the whole process of virtualizing the core network out and it has worked really well.

Officials with DataCore asserted that the industry accolades and positive customer feedback speaks to the timeliness, relevance and value implicit in SANsymphony-V. While many had looked at virtualization from the narrow perspective of servers and desktops, they now recognize how DataCore’s storage virtualization software forms the critical third dimension to a hardware-independent strategy.

DataCore claimed that it has over the years developed sophisticated storage virtualization technologies to overcome device-specific differences and limitations so that users may experience non-stop, lightning-fast, waste-free SANs despite continuous changes in the makeup of their storage pool.

SI Group explained that it deployed SANsymphony-V at all of its global affiliate locations. The company needed to protect its VMware environment by ensuring that data was synchronously mirrored and highly available. Now its data is secure because with SANsymphony-V it can replicate data in real-time to a secondary location, rather than contracting out for its D/R needs.
