Nirvanix Enterprise Cloud Storage for VMware
As enterprises continue to adopt and expand VMware-based environments, protecting data used by virtualized applications is crucial for ongoing business operations. IT departments, therefore, have to maintain rigorous backup and replication processes in order to achieve recovery time and recovery point objectives. However, with data growing exponentially and backup and replication files multiplying equally fast, IT managers are faced with increasingly costly purchase/upgrade cycle of storage systems and tape silos in addition to the space, cooling, and power expenses, and staff to manage them.
Nirvanix cloud storage services not only provide superior economics over onsite backup and replication of virtual machines, but also maximize data protection through globally distributed redundant copies for disaster recovery. In addition, Nirvanix offers usage-based pricing for on-demand storage to meet spikes, while reducing power and cooling costs, and freeing up data center space and IT staff for applications that will enhance enterprise competitiveness.
