Consolidation & Storage Management
Space-Efficient Storage Consolidation, Pooling and Thin Provisioning
DataCore fundamentally changes for the better the economics of IT investment and productivity by consolidating and pooling underutilized storage resources so that you can use and manage them much more efficiently and effectively. The result is that you dont have to buy storage as much or as often because you are getting more out of what you already own. DataCore storage virtualization software gives you the full utilization of the storage you already own because you can fully share and manage your storage as a common pool of storage resources over network connections.
Virtualizing and consolidating storage into a pool has a dramatic effect on productivity. Instead of having to work one at a time with many individual storage devices, DataCores storage virtualization software allows you to deliver storage resources as a network service to many users from one common point of administration-- the pool.

DataCore also takes care of automatically allocating those resources where you need them, when you need them. DataCore's thin provisioning software, for example, can reduce an organization’s traditional ‘fat’ storage capacity requirements by as much as 60%. Learn More: Maximize and Optimize Your Storage.

Server Consolidation and Storage
In thinking through the virtualization of your applications, desktops or servers, you will no doubt come to realize that you are about to place a much heavier demand on your storage infrastructure because a much larger population of users will be concentrating their I/O demands through fewer physical computers.
 
- DataCore's storage virtualization software insulates your virtual server, applications and desktop environments from the adds,
moves and changes in the physical disk configuration.
- DataCore's application transparent high-availability and auto failover and failback capabilities slash downtime
while protecting your critical business data.
- DataCore's ability to boost the performance of the disk subsystems helping them overcome the sluggishness
of concentrated I/O workloads.
Before server virtualization, the consequences of storage-related interruptions were much more isolated. Each server had its own separate slice of disks, and you could better coordinate planned downtime because a smaller set of users was impacted. Some could even continue to operate offline from their PCs or workstations and remain largely unaffected.
But when you have multiple virtual machines or virtual desktops sharing the same disk subsystems far more users will be affected when you take down the physical server to reconfigure, replace or upgrade components of your disk arrays. Far more users will complain when disk bottlenecks arise from the aggravated workloads, not to mention when a disk crashes or a disk array gets damaged.
