One of the most distinguishing features of VMware vSAN is the availability of stretched cluster deployment. Stretched clusters allow vSAN customers to configure two geographically located sites, while synchronously replicating data between the two sites. This provides high availability and protection against a single site failure. Not a new concept with traditional storage…. or is it? This week Jase McCarty and Niels Hagoort join us to discuss how vSAN Stretched Cluster differentiates from your father’s stretched cluster solutions.
