Infortrend Storage Systems Now Support VMware VAAI and SRM
IT administrators, especially the virtual infrastructure and storage administrators responsible for deploying VMware, are always looking to improve performance and efficiency and to reduce costs and system overhead. To achieve this goal, a full integration between VMware and storage array is definitely necessary.
VMware vStorage API for Array Integration (VAAI) is an application program interface (API) framework that enables communication between VMware vSphere ESXi hosts and storage devices. In this case, it will reduce resource overhead on the vSphere hosts and significantly improve performance for storage-intensive operations.
With strict tests and certifications, Infortrend EonStor GS system supports VAAI and can significantly improve virtual operations performance in VMware environments and data security within VMware systems.
Furthermore, EonStor GS system’s support for SRM (Site Recovery Manager) is also used for data protection and disaster recovery in different sites, as integration of SRM with array-based replication facilitates replica maintenance of virtual machines on multiple sites.
When talking about virtualization solutions, you can always trust Infortrend storage systems.
