Radically Simple Hypervisor-Converged Storage for VMs
• Software-defined storage optimized for VMs
• Hypervisor-converged architecture
• Runs on any standard x86 server
• Pools HDD/SSD into a shared datastore
• Delivers enterprise-level scalability and
performance
• Managed through per-VM storage policies
• Deeply integrated with the VMware stack

21. Virtual SAN - Usability & Manageability : Health Check Plugin
Overview
• SNMP support, custom scripts, emails via VC alarms
• Performance Monitoring – Web client integrated
• Cluster wide summary of VM availability
• Event based alarm triggers
• Detailed Space Reporting (account for dedup etc)
• Proactive rebalance from UI (Health and actions)
• Alarms on performance threshold breach
• Integrate performance data in support bundle
Benefits
• Fully integrated operational management
Fully integrated operational management, which are natively part of the vSphere Web Client

22. Deduplication and Compression for Space Efficiency
• Nearline deduplication and compression per disk group level.
– Will be called “Space Efficiency”
• Space Efficiency enabled on a cluster level
• Deduplicated when de-staging from cache tier to capacity tier
– Fixed block length deduplication (4KB Blocks)
• Compressed after deduplication
