Description
StorMagic SvSAN is simple storage virtualization that eliminates downtime. It provides high availability with two nodes per cluster, and is used by thousands of organizations to keep mission-critical applications and data online and available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
SvSAN is a lightweight solution that has been designed specifically for small-to-medium-sized businesses and edge computing environments such as retail stores, manufacturing plants and even oil rigs at sea.
SvSAN is a simple, 'set and forget' solution that ensures high availability as a virtual SAN (VSAN) with a witness VM that can be local, in the cloud, or as-a-service, supporting up to 1,000 2-node SvSAN clusters. IT professionals can deploy and manage 1,000 sites as easily as 1, with Edge Control centralized management.
It delivers uptime with synchronous mirroring and no single point of failure, even with poor, unreliable networks, and it allows non-disruptive hardware and software upgrades.
Plus, SvSAN gives organizations choice and control by allowing configurations of any x86 server models and storage types, even mixed within a cluster, while vSphere or Hyper-V hypervisors can be used.
Description
Failover Clustering in Windows Server (and Azure Local) allows a collection of independent servers to collaborate, enhancing both availability and scalability for clustered roles, which were previously referred to as clustered applications and services. These interconnected nodes utilize a combination of hardware and software solutions, ensuring that if one node encounters a failure, another node seamlessly takes over its responsibilities through an automated failover mechanism. Continuous monitoring of clustered roles ensures that if they cease to function properly, they can be restarted or migrated to uphold uninterrupted service. Additionally, this feature includes support for Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs), which create a cohesive, distributed namespace and enable reliable shared storage access across all nodes, thereby minimizing potential service interruptions. Common applications of Failover Clustering encompass high‑availability file shares, SQL Server instances, and Hyper‑V virtual machines. This functionality is available on Windows Server versions 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025, as well as within Azure Local environments, making it a versatile choice for organizations looking to enhance their system resilience. By leveraging Failover Clustering, organizations can ensure their critical applications remain available even in the event of hardware failures.
