FalconStor NSS is an intelligent storage virtualization and provisioning platform that brings the benefits of server virtualization to the storage layer. It enables consolidation across heterogeneous storage platforms, enhances the utilization rate of storage resources, minimizes infrastructure management costs, and ensures data protection and mobility at both the server and storage levels.
Highly available, high-performance storage services for VMware Infrastructure FalconStor NSS consolidates storage resources, providing a shared storage pool to enable VMware enterprise services such as VMotion, Distributed Resource Scheduling (DRS), VMware High Availability, and Fault Tolerance (vSphere 4.0). Built-in functions include online data migration, real-time mirroring, Thin Provisioning, application-aware snapshot agents, and WAN-optimized replication.
FalconStor NSS can be deployed as physical appliances and VMware Ready certified, for complete implementation flexibility for the smallest VMware environments to the largest, most demanding enterprises.
Tight integration for instant virtual machine and application recovery
FalconStor NSS integrates with VMware Infrastructure and business applications. Application-aware snapshot agents take point-in-time copies with 100% transactional consistency to enable instant recovery. The FalconStor Snapshot Director is designed to coordinate snapshots among all virtual machines in a VMware ESX and ESXi server. This tight integration at the application and virtual machine level provides full system consistency. Granular data recovery is automated and streamlined through recovery agents, enabling you to instantly recover the same set of virtual machines in the local or remote site.
Reducing storage infrastructure costs for VMware deployments
FalconStor NSS enhances the value of any VMware investment at server and storage virtualization layers, leveraging existing storage resources to lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and to maximize return on existing storage assets (ROA). FalconStor NSS enables storage provisioning from any disk array. Thin Provisioning technology maximizes disk utilization, reducing overall storage infrastructure costs. Migrating VMware ESX and ESXi servers to new storage arrays becomes a simple, instantaneous, painless process. |
