SvSAN with Cisco

Cisco and StorMagic deliver a highly available, hyperconverged 2-server solution using UCS and SvSAN

StorMagic’s virtual storage appliance running on Cisco UCS servers enables cost effective, highly available hyperconverged infrastructure that is simple to manage.

This means multi-site organizations can now gain the benefits of high availability with only two physical UCS servers running SvSAN at each location. This can save millions of dollars in hardware, software and maintenance costs by simplifying the configuration and eliminating the need for external, physical SANs at each location. Not only that, UCS servers are transformed into server-based storage arrays, placing shared storage on the network just like traditional SANs.

Cisco’s range of server platforms are optimized for varying environments and workloads so any enterprise can meet their IT requirements on a Cisco UCS server platform; from lean, remote sites to the data center.

The UCS/SvSAN solution is fully validated and supported by Cisco and is available on Cisco’s Global Price List and supported through Cisco TAC so purchasing and being supported though a Cisco Partner around the world couldn’t be easier. The four UCS/SvSAN platforms are as follows: E-Series, C-Series, UCS Mini and S-Series.
