Virtual SAN Space Efficiency Capabilities in 20 Minutes

VSAN-SEEarlier this week I got an opportunity to participate in a Webcast series titled “Virtual SAN Take 20” where I covered some of the new space efficiency and availability capabilities of Virtual SAN 6.2 and provided some useful demonstrations of the features and capabilities. The information I covered and demonstrated is applicable for all Virtual SAN Ready Nodes and the EMC/VCE VXRAIL engineered appliances that are powered by VMware’s Hyper-Converged software package with Virtual SAN.

Virtual SAN enables the most cost-efficient all-flash performance by delivering up to 10x greater storage utilization through data reduction technologies. In this episode we will walk through the key Virtual SAN space efficiency features that enable a significantly cost-effective, flash-optimized hyper-converged infrastructure. We’ll discuss Deduplication, Compression and RAID 5/6 Erasure Coding along with tips and guidance on when, where, how and why they make sense for your hyper-converged infrastructure.

If you have 20 minutes to spare and are curious about some of the technical details of the new Virtual SAN 6.2 features, this webcast will help you get your head around it quickly. For a chance to access other  Virtual SAN take 20 presentations visit the link below:
