Virtual iSCSI SANs
Data Storage Sytems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.) is an authorized Vaulue Added Reseller of HP/LeftHand Networks and can provide integration, installation and support. For more information and pricing on the LeftHand Networks Virtual SAN Appliance, please call DSS, Inc. sales at (763) 416-0474 or e-Mail: sales@datastoragesys.com.

Virtual storage servers are created by running HP/LeftHand Networks' SAN/iQ on a virtual machine. By clustering multiple virtual storage servers together, you can transform the internal storage of your physical servers into a virtual SAN in the same way you cluster multiple enterprise class x86 servers into a SAN.

A cluster of virtual storage servers delivers the same scalability, high availability, reliability, and integrated feature set of a traditional HP/LeftHand SAN. The only difference is that virtual storage utilizes hardware resources that already exist within your IT environment.

By creating a virtual SAN from existing hardware, you can cost-effectively deploy server virtualization high availability/disaster recovery features that depend on network storage. Use one management interface to oversee your disaster recovery strategy for all of your remote sites and branch offices.

For configuration options, pricing and availability please allow DSS, Inc. to put together a detailed solution designed to meet your project criteria and earn your business.

Benefits of virtual storage servers

Cost-effective replication
- Deploy virtual storage servers to replicate data back to the corporate data center without adding additional hardware or file replication software by leveraging server virtualization deployments at your remote and branch offices.
Utilization - Turn the storage left behind in your servers following the virtualization of your application environment into a virtual SAN and share it with all of your applications.
Green storage - Transform the always spinning disks in your servers into a virtual SAN and implement the ultimate green storage solution without purchasing additional hardware that requires data center footprint, power, and cooling.
