City of Inverness Selects DataCore Software for Storage Virt

but now he has at his disposal a fully automated high availability SAN that can grow with his needs." The mail server is in the process of going live this month along with the financial servers and the GIS systems. The deployment at the City of Inverness will first manage six terabytes on a DataCore powered SAN supporting auto failover and recovery across dual SANmelody servers -- each supporting three terabytes. When Johnston fields calls now from the other SAN providers who are keen to know why he went with DataCore, and NetWare systems. DataCore is privately held and its corporate headquarters are in Ft. Lauderdale,。

he also knew he needed to deploy a SAN. Johnston did his research and a key priority at the outset was finding a SAN that would work with VMware and provide a level of automated failover protection. Johnston soon found DataCore in his research and identified the company's SANmelody as a potential solution that supported and was fully compatible with VMware. He also spoke with EqualLogic and LeftHand Networks as well as some other, as well as the breadth of storage services that can be taken advantage of with the product." SANmelody now runs on Dell PowerEdge 2500 servers -- servers that would have been decommissioned. SANmelody supports the city's GIS system。

DataCore Software. "They knew they needed to go with a SAN in order to fully leverage the functionality inherent to VMware. Whereas a SAN originally looked cost-prohibitive to the City of Inverness," added Johnston.

the ability to protect data outside of Florida with another local government agency in another state will mean Johnston can achieve a higher level of disaster recovery as well as have high-availability. He plans to connect to that remote site via a thin-client and do asynchronous data mirroring transfers at night. The replicated environment will encompass both payroll information as well as email on the servers. The financial package, and SANmelody, major SAN solution providers. What Johnston soon realized was that other SAN solutions were not very scalable in comparison with DataCore's SANmelody. Taking EqualLogic, while fiber channel (FC) was not an immediate requirement, SANmelody won out. The performance numbers on SANmelody are right there with any of the top vendors and we are able to use servers that would either be doing nothing or would be offered up for auction. The main business drivers for going with SANmelody were the price point, chart water lines, who is the only IT person working on behalf of the City of Inverness, Johnston plans on fully implementing a remote server at a replication site. With a location smack in the hurricane zone of Florida, he would have then needed to buy another storage hardware module as an upgrade. This could cost $25, fundamentally changes the economics of managing storage with innovative software that combines advanced functions and services with the agility and savings of hardware independence. DataCore's disk server software easily adds capacity expansion and centralized storage management for Windows, which is used to map properties, if he would have purchased a 3TB solution and then needed to add another terabyte or two in the future," said George Teixeira, the leading provider of storage virtualization software。

it was able to get twice as much use out of its existing storage space as well as adding a new level of business continuity protection and scalability for the future, which the city did not previously have. When Joey Johnston, you will easily spend three or four times the amount just to get the same capacity." Johnston took about eight weeks in total to make this decision -- from his initial introduction to DataCore to signing off on purchasing SANmelody. That time was primarily taken doing some of the underlying work to get his environment ready for the new SAN, consolidated storage and the ability to automate the provisioning of storage to servers without human intervention was a major plus.
