Starwind Silver Sponsor

I’m pleased to announce Starwind Software as a Silver sponsor.

Now I first came across Starwind in 2006. Back then the company was part of RocketDivision . In 2006 I was looking for a software ISCSI solution so I didn’t have to purchase a piece of hardware. I used it for VMware training courses to demonstrate VMware works with ISCSI as it was new back then. The nice guys at Starwind gave me a NFR and in return I showed it off to both VMware and students of VMware.

Since then I blogged about them here and there whilst watching the solution mature from a standard ISCSI target to a solution that has backup, dedupe and is software defined.

StarWind Virtual SAN is entirely software-based, hypervisor-centric virtual machine storage. It creates a fully fault-tolerant and high-performing storage pool that is built for the virtualization workload “from scratch”. StarWind Virtual SAN basically “mirrors” inexpensive internal storage between hosts. Virtual SAN completely eliminates any need for an expensive SAN or NAS or other physical shared storage. It seamlessly integrates into the hypervisor for unbeatable performance and exceptional simplicity of use.
