Flexibility and Scalability

Virtualization technologies have proven to be a staple for IT infrastructures, with the major benefit being resource consolidation, reducing the overall amount of hardware and the cost to operate and manage it.

Virtualized environments depend heavily on the random I/O performance of the storage system. Nexsan’s NST5000 unified hybrid storage system is the ideal choice for storing VMs on Network Attached Storage (NAS) featuring NFS, or on advanced iSCSI block storage.
