VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper V compatible
solution excels where simplicity, high availability and cost are
critical
Under an agreement, Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) will
distribute the StorMagic SvSAN virtual storage appliance to its
broad community of solution providers in the United States and
Canada. StorMagic is a provider of software-defined storage for
virtual server environments.
The StorMagic SvSAN solution serves any small business or
enterprise remote location running critical applications on-site,
without dedicated local IT resources. Whether it’s a college
campus, doctor’s office, a retail business with several brick and
mortar locations, or a remote, unmanned wind energy farm, these
organizations typically face similar storage challenges. This
includes ensuring availability and uptime, maximizing server and
storage utilization, reducing cost and complexity, simplifying and
centralizing management and minimizing deployment costs. To help
achieve the lowest ownership costs, StorMagic SvSAN delivers
virtualized shared storage that works with any 2-node x86 server
set up, eliminating the need for physical SANs, and can be managed
from a central location.
"Small organizations and distributed enterprises are actively
exploring more efficient methods of virtualizing their
infrastructure, because they require better performance,
availability and manageability of applications running in isolated
offices and remote sites,” said Mark Taylor, vice president of
North American servers, systems, and software for Arrow’s
enterprise computing solutions business. “This distribution
agreement with StorMagic offers Arrow’s solution providers and
their customers a proven virtualization solution that requires
minimal IT infrastructure, which helps to reduce ownership
costs.”
“Our relationship with Arrow will help position StorMagic SvSAN
to deliver superior value to organizations looking for hardware
independence and the flexibility to choose server and storage
infrastructure optimized to meet their unique requirements,” said
Hans O'Sullivan, chief executive officer of StorMagic. “There are
over 1.8 million branch offices in the United States alone, and the
IT managers responsible for those locations appreciate solutions
that deliver high availability, are easy to deploy and manage, and
significantly reduce capital expenditures.”
