More than 20,000 customers worldwide have achieved success with hyperconverged infrastructure powered by vSAN. VMware vSAN powers industry-leading hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solutions with vSphere-native, flash-optimized storage for private and public cloud deployments. The software reduces infrastructure costs, allowing you to start small and grow non-disruptively as your needs evolve. It also delivers high performance while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO) over traditional storage arrays, allowing IT teams to deliver desktop services to end users by running virtual machines on consolidated clusters in the data center.
One of these customers is Colorado College, which turned to vSAN for this very reason. “We chose hyperconverged for our environment primarily because of the redundancy features that it gives us,” Andrew Watson, systems engineer at Colorado College said. The power of vSAN provided the college with data resiliency, availability and speed of performance, particularly for their VDI so that they could boot multiple desktop instances at the same time.
