Dealing with data storage pain points? Learn why a true Software-defined Storage solution is ideal for improving application performance, managing diversity and migrating between different vendors, models and generations of storage devices.
Key Points:
Explain how DataCore fits into a Datacenter
Don’t cover any benefits yet, this is just a setup slide – make sure they understand
Software only
Runs on any x86
Sits in between your application servers and your existing storage devices
Talk track: I’d like to explain quickly how the DataCore software defined solution works, we’ll talk through the benefits in a minute, but for now, I just want to ensure we’re clear on where this sits in your environment.
DataCore is a software only solution
Runs on any x86
We sit in the data path between your application servers and your existing storage devices
We operate in an N+1 configuration to ensure there is no single point of failure. (repeat it) So again,
DataCore is a software only solution
Runs on any x86
Sits in the data path between your application servers and your existing storage devices
…and I know what you are thinking. Putting anything in the data path sounds like it’ll slow things down, actually, it does the opposite. You end up seeing 3-5x performance on your existing storage hardware – I’ll show you how in a minute.
Transition to next slide: Great, so I just wanted to level set on where we sit, any questions before I move onto why this makes sense to do?
