- Kernel embedded
Virtual SAN is built into the vSphere kernel, optimizing the data I/O path to provide the ultra-high levels of performance with minimal impact on CPU and memory. - Flash-optimized
Virtual SAN minimizes storage latency by accelerating read / write disk I/O traffic with built-in caching on server-side flash devices. - Granular non-disruptive scale-up or scale-out
Non-disruptively expand capacity and performance by adding hosts to a cluster (scale-out) or just grow capacity by adding disks to a host (scale-up). - Deduplication and compression
Software-based deduplication and compression optimizes all-flash storage capacity, providing as much as 7x data reduction with minimal CPU and memory overhead. - Erasure coding
Erasure coding significantly increases usable storage capacity while keeping data resiliency unchanged. It is capable of tolerating one or two failures with single parity or double parity protection. - Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS controls, limits and monitors the IOPS consumed by specific virtual machines, eliminating noisy neighbor issues. - Virtual SAN health service
The updated health service provides integrated hardware compatibility checks, performance monitoring, storage capacity reporting and diagnostics directly from VMware vCenter Server. - Single-pane-of-glass management with vSphere
Virtual SAN removes the need for training and operating specialized storage interfaces. Provisioning is as easy as two clicks. VM-centric policy-based management: Virtual SAN uses storage policies, applied on a per-VM basis, to automate provisioning and balancing of storage resources to ensure that each virtual machine gets the specified storage resources and services. - Built-in failure tolerance and advanced availability
Virtual SAN leverages distributed RAID and cache mirroring to ensure that data is never lost if a disk, host, network or rack fails. It seamlessly supports vSphere availability features like vSphere Fault Tolerance, vSphere High Availability, etc. - Virtual SAN stretched cluster
Creates a stretched cluster between two geographically separate sites, synchronously replicating data between sites. It enables enterprise-level availability where an entire site failure can be tolerated, with no data loss and near zero downtime.
VMware Virtual SAN is radically simple, enterprise-class storage for VMware hyper-converged software solutions. Uniquely embedded in the hypervisor, Virtual SAN delivers flash-optimized, high-performance storage for hyper-converged infrastructure.
