StorMagic SvSAN with Lenovo ThinkSystem
StorMagic and Lenovo have partnered to bring you ThinkSystem servers with StorMagic SvSAN—and that means low-cost storage with greater simplicity and availability on Lenovo's renowned ThinkSystem servers. To learn more, read this solution brief.
StorMagic SvSAN is a software-defined storage solution designed to simplify virtualized storage environments. It eliminates the need for physical SANs and is particularly suited for edge computing and remote site locations. SvSAN is easy to install and manage, making it a cost-effective option for organizations looking to enhance their storage infrastructure without compromising on performance.
What are the licensing options for SvSAN?
SvSAN licenses are based on usable Virtual Storage Appliance (VSA) capacity, with tiers set at 2TB, 6TB, 12TB, and Unlimited TB. These licenses are perpetual, meaning after a one-time payment, they can be used indefinitely. The license includes all necessary features for high availability and shared storage, with additional options for caching and data encryption available as add-ons.
How does SvSAN enhance data security?
SvSAN includes a data encryption feature that allows organizations to encrypt data being mirrored by the system. This feature is FIPS 140-2 compliant and compatible with any Key Management System (KMS) that uses KMIP, including StorMagic's own key manager, SvKMS. This ensures that sensitive data at vulnerable edge sites is protected without the need for costly OS or hypervisor-level solutions.
