MiniBank appliances deliver both server and shared storage resources for small distributed sites needing protected storage. Up to six MiniBanks can be configured together as a high-performance iSCSI SAN MiniBank Array. Each MiniBank contributes a free virtual server that can access the shared capacity and performance of the SAN. Both storage and applications are protected in the case of a MiniBank failure. The award-winning innovation of hosting servers in an iSCSI SAN eliminates the need for standalone physical servers resulting in dramatic reduction in power, cooling, rack space and cost.
MiniBanks can be combined to create a scalable iSCSI SAN array with no single point of failure. Storage can be logically and physically expanded with applications running.
A virtual server running on each MiniBank eliminates external physical servers and reduces rackspace, power, cooling and acquisition costs.
Improve uptime for applications with VM Failover™ which automatically restarts applications on an available MiniBank in the event of an appliance failure.
The Pivot3 scale-out architecture based on standard appliances, standard Gigabit Ethernet networks and open systems software streamlines complex installations.
