from LeftHand Networks:
Imagine a fully featured, scalable SAN with all the enterprise class features that customers have come to expect, all running in VMs, converting your storage internal to VI3 servers into a clustered iSCSI SAN. This SAN/iQ based Virtual Storage Platform provides all of the SAN services necessary for storage provisioning, data protection, management and availability for demanding datacenter environments. The solution offers scalable capacity and performance along with advanced data availability via LeftHand’s Network RAID and multi-site SAN capabilities.
Can’t quite picture it? LeftHand has a demo you can download. Try running it in a VM on your laptop and turn the laptop’s VM storage into a fully featured SAN, and while you’re at it, add one of your buddy’s laptop’s storage that’s on the network into your SAN. Now that’s cool!
