Storage Spaces Direct<\/strong>, included starting with Windows Server 2016, provides support for hyper-converged environments, reducing drastically the TCO while providing great scalability and fault tolerance.\u00a0This is achieved by distributing storage across standard disks provided by the datacenter hosts instead of requiring expensive dedicated SAN hardware.<\/p>\n

Our Windows Cinder<\/strong> driver also\u00a0supports Storage Spaces<\/strong>, available since Windows Server 2012 R2 and providing the same features and tools described above but without distributed storage, offering a great match for SAN and other traditional types of storage. Last but not least, we also support the iSCSI target role included in Windows Server 2012 and above.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”839″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row anchor=”features”][vc_column]
