Storage Virtualization back on the Menu
http://www.theregister.com/2007/02/06/sansym_v6/
"We run DataCore in tandem with VMware and together they allocate resources as
needed, where needed, over our IP and Fibre Channel networks," said
Michael Gayle, IT director at Calvary Chapel and an early adopter of
SANsymphony 6. "Instead of wrestling with hardware, SANsymphony has made
storage a network utility - a service for our users and applications."
DataCore Goes for Thin Provisioning
http://www.computerwire.com/industries/research/?pid=173A9774-BBB8-4CF8-8AC0-BA9762B38CF9
DataCore
Software Corp has joined a relatively exclusive technology club by adding thin
provisioning to its low-end and mid-range appliance-based storage
virtualization software.
Among the
very few suppliers already offering the facility are Network Appliance Inc, and
3PAR Corp. But DataCore says that unlike those suppliers’ systems, prices for
its thin-provisioning begin at $948.
DataCore targets SMBs with DR, BC
http://www.infostor.com/display_article/282705/23/ARTCL/Display/none/DataCore-targets-SMBs-with-DR,-BC/
DataCore Software announced this week
that it has expanded its Virtual Infrastructure Foundation to provide disaster
recovery and business continuity for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
The software offers thin-provisioning to automate and optimize storage
capacity, SANmotion features to simplify data migration, and storage
performance acceleration software. Also included are auto-fail-over,
auto-recovery, and IP SAN mirroring protection services.
DataCore touts a next level for virtualization

"Our advantage is that we don't have to carry around a locomotive sized chunk of
hardware"
DataCore Updates V-Word Software
http://www.computerwire.com/industries/research/?pid=49D60F8A-5F5B-4246-BAB4-7D9D52CBF8B3
Having shipped the first version of SANsymphony almost seven years ago, DataCore is
one of the veterans of the storage virtualization market. Taneja Group analyst
Arun Taneja said that because of this history, the company has developed
functions and services in its software that "[rival] newcomers have yet to
fathom."...
DataCore Intros 6.0
http://www.byteandswitch.com/document.asp?doc_id=116044
"Storage virtualization is a game for experienced players. During
the six plus years that DataCore has been in business they did the basics and
learned a lot from their customers. They are applying this knowledge now in
building a platform for the future that addresses a range of services that
newcomers have yet to fathom. After the announcement of Enterprise Edition 6.0,
if someone thinks DataCore is a niche player, think again! The timing couldn't
be better as we see 2007 as the ‘year storage virtualization goes mainstream."
– Arun Taneja, Founder, President and Consulting Analyst of the Taneja Group.
In-band’s Virtual Song
http://www.byteandswitch.com:80/blog.asp?blog_sectionid=252
DataCore's
SANsymphony is becoming more enterprise-ready. At least one analyst who saw
DataCore as a high-volume low-end play until now says the new features should
make SANsymphony enterprise-ready. "DataCore graduated into an enterprise
storage virtualization player with this release," Arun Taneja of the
Taneja Group says. "I had always shoved them into the SMB category
before."
A Sixth Major Version of
DataCore’s SANsymphony Coming
http://www.techworld.com/storage/features/index.cfm?featureID=3141&pagtype=samecatsamechan
Michael Gayle, Director of IT, Calvary Chapel, a beta user, said:
"Just buying more hardware would not have solved our problems. We needed a
smarter approach that would allow us to control and automate storage across our
entire environment, and decided to ‘go virtual’ with DataCore. Once you do so
and look back, the old storage box approach seems so primitive. SANsymphony 6.0
made the jump easy."
DataCore Storage Virtualization
Certified on Virtual Iron Virtual Infrastructure
http://www.virtualiron.com/news_events/releaseDate-013007_DataCore.cfm
"We
searched the virtualization market for a solution that delivers the complete
benefits of virtual infrastructure management," said Dermot Reynolds,
Managing Director, NewDatum, a leading virtualization consultancy and reseller
in the United Kingdom.
"The combination of Virtual Iron and DataCore was the clear leader on
price and capability. The ability to create virtual infrastructure from low
cost industry standard servers dramatically improves the reliability and
capacity of the data center at a price that is a fraction of VMware-based
solutions. This provides tremendous price value to our customers."
"Together the Virtual Iron and DataCore solution provided by NewDatum
offer us tremendous flexibility," said Mark Aylwin, Flexible Lamps IT
Support Manager. "DataCore runs on industry standard hardware and can
utilize any vendor’s storage that’s connected to it, while Virtual Iron allows
us to replicate our server infrastructure without purchasing multiple servers
to do it. The joint solution delivers an extremely cost-effective virtual
infrastructure and disaster recovery solution at a fraction of the cost of
alternatives."
Prime Time for SANs
http://www.crn.com/sections/hardware/hardware.jhtml?articleId=197000455
...A
SAN can be affordable if solution providers work with a variety of solutions to
meet small storage budgets, said Eryck Bredy, president of Bredy Network
Management, a Woburn, Mass.-based solution provider.
One option is a custom solution. Instead of buying a name-brand iSCSI storage
array, Bredy helps many of his customers install DataCore Software's SANmelody
software on an off-the-shelf PC-based server and turn it into an iSCSI array. "The software starts at $1,178," Bredy said.
"It can be set up for IP SAN or Fibre Channel. There's no need to go out and buy an EMC box. Then the customer says, 'Oh, I thought it would cost
tens of thousands of dollars.' " ...

DataCore Unveils SMB Solutions
That Surpass Enterprise-Class Offerings
http://www.enterprisenetworksandservers.com/monthly/art.php?2900
Users get all the
software they need to fully manage and protect multiple terabytes of critical
business data across different sites at a price point that makes it practical
for small to mid-size businesses to implement high-end, data center class
disaster recovery and business continuity. No other software solution on the
market includes such a rich set of capabilities.
DataCore offers disaster recovery
for SMBs
http://www.wwpi.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1762
DataCore has brought to
the market a new class of disaster recovery and business continuity products
under its Virtual Infrastructure Foundation, according to consultant firm,
Clipper Group Inc. of Wellesley,
Massachusetts. The new offerings
provide a rich set of functions at a very affordable price for the small to
medium sized business (SMB), Clipper Group added.
DataCore unveils affordable SMB solutions that claim to surpass enterprise class offerings
http://www.snseurope.com/snslink/news/news-full.php?id=5545&result=datacore
The new DataCore packaged solutions create a new price class in the market. Steve
Kaplan, industry author and co-founder/CEO of AccessFlow, a leading DR and
virtualisation solution provider commented - "DataCore has reset what is
possible for small-to-mid-size businesses in terms of data protection. These new
solutions deliver a level of disaster recovery only seen in high-end data
centres at a fraction of the cost. Systems with auto-failover and remote site
replication for disaster recovery typically are priced at $100,000 and up. What
DataCore has done with its new Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity
solutions is to bring enterprise-class, data centre disaster recovery down to
the level where these high-end features are affordable. Smaller businesses need
to eliminate downtime and protect their systems. And just like big companies,
they also want to know that in the event of a failure, they will be
protected."
DataCore Revolutionizes Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery
http://vmblog.com/archive/2007/01/15/datacore-revolutionizes-business-continuity-and-disaster-recovery.aspx
According to Jon Toigo, industry watchdog and founder of the Data Management Institute, "DataCore's latest contribution builds on a solid foundation of products offering virtualization and continuous data protection off the array, enabling companies to buy the storage they need at a price they can afford and add value in the form of software to better protect and manage information. This is key to right-sizing infrastructure to meet business requirements rather than buying hugely expensive "value-add" arrays whose real value, in financial or practical terms, is open to question."
"DataCore has brought to the market a new class of disaster recovery and business continuity products under its Virtual Infrastructure Foundation," said Dianne McAdam, Director, Enterprise Information Assurance, Clipper Group. "These offerings provide a rich set of functions at a very affordable price for the small to medium sized business."
SMBs offered virtually cheap disaster recovery
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/01/15/dcore_smb_dr/
"The reason people like products such as EMC's SRDF is that they serve multiple operating systems and it protects everything," said George Teixeira, DataCore's president & CEO. "Ours is the same - it serves any O/S and any number of virtual or physical servers. The difference is you don't need a $100,000 SAN behind it."
"We've seen huge growth in the whole VM space," he said. "Software such as VMware puts all its eggs in one basket, so you need to put high-availability storage behind it - we give you the software to create an IP SAN with auto fail-over for $7998, plus $2000 for a year's support."
He added that thin provisioning・as a big role in the VM space as well.
"We put thin provisioning into these packages because we learnt that virtual system images reserve a lot of space, but it's space you're not actually using," he said. "We found that with this, our 3TB is worth maybe 10TB from someone else."
The movement to 'total enterprise virtualization' and iSCSI are driving new users to virtual storage
http://www.snseurope.com/snslink/news/news-full.php?newsid=5458
"DataCore claims that hundreds of new, small to medium-sized customers installed DataCore's SANmelody storage virtualization software in the second half of 2006 for the following reasons."
According to DataCore companies world-wide are clearly moving beyond component level virtualization to 'total enterprise virtualization,'which spans servers, desktops and storage. The growing success of VMware and its support for new, low cost iSCSI storage connectivity has also spurred virtualization deployments in smaller to medium-sized companies, which want the data protection and greater uptime benefits of a SAN.
iSCSI set to boom, boom, boom
http://www.techworld.com/storage/blogs/index.cfm?entryid=364&blogid=3
...DataCore sold hundreds of its SANmelody low-end SAN virtualisation product in the second half of 2006. Most of those were going into SME iSCSI shops.
DataCore Announces "Surf's Up" for Storage Virtualization
http://vmblog.com/archive/2007/01/07/datacore-announces-surf-s-up-for-storage-virtualization.aspx
"VMware environments and storage networks go hand-in-hand, but the cost to implement a SAN was a major limiting factor until we found and evaluated DataCore's Virtual Infrastructure Foundation," said Chris Cooper, president, Span the Wan. "The software was easy to install on our existing systems with Ethernet connections. Moreover, SANmelody gave us a lot of flexibility and - most importantly - it worked seamlessly with the VMware set up. The price made it a simple purchase decision."
DataCore Recognizes "Total Enterprise Virtualization"
http://www.gridtoday.com/grid/1188634.html
When servers are consolidated, more users are depending on fewer physical servers and, therefore, a single failure can affect many users. DataCore claims that most iSCSI storage solutions that are affordable do not perform true and reliable fail-over. On the other hand, they claim that most SAN solutions that provide high quality business continuity to FC SAN data centers are too expensive, and are often unavailable, for iSCSI implementations.
SANmelody racing up the charts
http://www.techworld.com/storage/blogs/index.cfm?blogid=3&entryid=360
Is DataCore's SANmelody top of the IP SAN virtualisation charts? Here is an extract from a recent company release: "Hundreds of new, small to mid-size customers have installed DataCore's SANmelody storage virtualization software in the second half of 2006. New users include Span the Wan, S&S Cycle, Coastal Range Systems, LifeSearch, Hedgemetrix LLC, Fox Williams, Hamilton Beach, Hallmark Financial Services, Inc., ETO, Herakles LLC, Olin Corp., Paragon Engineering, Alchemy Plus, City of Carmel, Wilcox & Savage, First Hawaiian Bank, University of Arkansas, ADMN, John H. Harland Company, Teachers Media Company, Dennis Publishing, VerdictMAX, Adolfson & Peterson Construction, EngenderHealth, Spectranetics, LTK Engineering Services, All Medical Personnel and many more.
DataCore Shortens Sales Cycle for Virtual Infrastructure Partners
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/061107/nytu067.html?.v=67
"With DataCore Virtual SAN Infrastructure packages starting at less than $1000, SAN cost no longer delays our customers' VMware deployments," said Michael Reilly, President & CEO of Foedus, a DataCore partner and provider of Virtualization Infrastructure technologies and services. "With existing servers they have on site, we are able to easily demonstrate a complete, SAN supported, Virtual Infrastructure, in any proof of concept (POC), without having to wait for the customer to free up budget for SAN hardware."
Infrastructure virtualization is ready to go company-wide
http://www.mcsolutions.co.uk/article/index.aspx?articleid=XS_rzPcZ8gr2ZrT9-C9RNNajcFoPHyJvo_xAKeudzzwA
"We now have the products and services expertise to design and implement Total Enterprise Virtualisation solutions," says Mike Strohl, president of VMware consultant Entisys Solutions. "VMware server opened the broader market to understanding that virtualisation can liberate IT resources and services from the limitations of physical devices, enabling them to be used more efficiently. Once that is understood, it really doesn't make sense to stop with servers, now that products such as DataCore SANmelody are available."
Biggest further education college in Wales goes virtual
http://www.pingwales.co.uk/2006/12/06/Coleg-Gwent-%E2%80%93-DataCore-Software.html
http://www.snseurope.com/snslink/news/news-full.php?id=5267&result=datacore
Evan Smith, assistant head of IT at Coleg Gwent, comments: "The SAN has had no visible impact on the network performance and has improved the performance in retrieving data. With a growing number of students and staff, the need to increase capacity was paramount. Viglen introducing SANmelody has met our requirements. It is very simple to use and gives us a platform for the future."
Go Back in Time
http://www.redmondmag.com/reports/article.asp?EditorialsID=387
That's exactly what you want to do after a data-destroying disaster. And now you can.
DataCore Software has a new continuous data-protection product called Traveller, which protects your data by letting you roll back to a previous time prior to a virus attack, power outage or some other disaster.
Traveller uses high-availability data mirroring and storage virtualization to restore data to a known, "good" state prior to disaster. It's a potentially smoother approach than data snapshots, which can leave gaps between recovery points. Traveller chugs away transparently in the background without affecting any applications or other operations, just waiting for Godzilla to crush your data center.
