However, SvSAN is designed to be flexible, and allow users to configure to their precise requirements. You can use Storage Performance Analysis (find more here) to understand your organization’s workloads and configure your […]
The Security Center of Iceland provides on-site security, remote surveillance, CCTV and guarding services for healthcare organizations, retail stores, and airlines across Iceland. They require 24/7 availability for the monitoring center, for critical services. A priority for them was to add virtualization with triple redundancy to both in house and remote sites. They needed a […]
Imagine it: you’re sitting there with the #squad, ready to watch the Superbowl and cable/satellite connection goes blank. The signal comes back a few minutes later, but you’ve already missed a historic touchdown. You catch up on the highlights post-game, but it’s not the same as watching the big game live – right now. You’re […]
SvSAN is a great solution for bringing high availability to edge sites, which makes it perfect for airports: where uptime is critical, and costs should be minimal. Schiphol airport deployed SvSAN over six years ago, and have enjoyed 100% system uptime since then. Lisbon airport relies on SvSAN for its vital docking systems while remaining […]

StorMagic SvSAN has been designed to provide organizations with the capability to architect IT systems that are resilient, have adequate redundancy and are highly available. Downtime can be incredibly detrimental to the productivity of an organization, with most companies being completely reliant on IT for everyday operations. By bringing datacenter technology to small/remote/branch sites, SvSAN […]
A typical SvSAN deployment calls for cluster sizes of just two nodes as the lightest, simplest, most efficient way of delivering highly available virtualized storage. However, a two node cluster cannot retain high availability should one node be lost through failure or maintenance. The storage is still available, on the remaining online node, but is […]
Many companies are now completely reliant on IT for everyday operations, and as such the availability and uptime of these systems is critically important. Loss of service equates to loss of productivity which, depending on the severity, can have a potentially huge impact for an organization. This is important as the idea of the datacenter […]
StorMagic SvSAN is a virtual storage appliance (VSA) that provides a lightweight, highly available shared storage solution, with no single points of failure. It is typically deployed on to two servers and performs synchronous mirroring between the servers. Although 2-node clusters deployments are the most common use case for SvSAN, it is possible to scale-out […]
When StorMagic first entered the scene, if you wanted shareable storage then you needed to invest in expensive, complex external SANs or NAS technology, and pay staff that could manage it. This is why the very ethos of StorMagic is about making the complex simple, and making shared storage accessible to more organizations. From the […]
A lot of ‘on premise’ storage has been developed based on the needs of the datacenter, a complete solution that combines hardware and software. Gartner predicts that by 2022, 75% of all data will be generated outside of the traditional datacenter. This suggests a shift towards processing data at the edge, which is something that […]
