Intuitive, Easy to Deploy, and Enterprise Grade

StorMagic SvHCI is a hyperconverged infrastructure solution purpose-built for the needs of even complex IT, with ‘just right’ features and functionality.

We’ve made our HCI solution radically simple. SvHCI is right-sized, easy to deploy, and lightweight – with no specialized IT knowledge required to install or manage it. We also include 24/7 Platinum support as standard, covering all technology stack components.

SvHCI Features

  • Simple, guided deployment experience

  • Deploy as a single node (server) when high availability features are not needed for VMs
  • Add a second node when needed to achieve HA
  • Deploy as 2 nodes (servers) initially when high availability is required

  • No additional software required. Add a server, and turn on HA.
  • Provides high availability with only 2 nodes and a lightweight remote Witness
  • SvSAN technology built-in
  • Protect up to 50 VMs with HA per cluster

  • Edge Control provides a single interface for managing the entire stack of every SvHCI cluster within an organization
