Future-Proofing: DataCore Software Solutions Survive Hardware Obsolescence

Thousands of customers have relied upon DataCore storage virtualization solutions to serve, manage and protect their data and to grow their storage infrastructures efficiently and economically with a solution that continues to work for them even as the hardware within that infrastructure comes and goes.

DataCore lowers your total cost of ownership (TCO) and enhances your return on investment (ROI); making your IT infrastructure more versatile and responsive for the long term.

Investment Protection –There is a better way!
"No one would ever dream of throwing away Exchange because the server on which it was running became obsolete," says George Teixeira, CEO and President DataCore Software. "Yet, this is what the storage industry has been forcing users to do with their storage for years, junking their entire investment each time they need to replace, grow or upgrade their storage solutions. DataCore gives its customers the power to reject this abusive paradigm by offering users both the shared storage required to implement virtual infrastructures and the comfort of knowing that their investments in DataCore virtual SAN solutions will continue to work for them for many years to come - even as they grow and their needs change."

DataCore storage solutions run on any standard Windows server or VM, turning it into a disk storage server - a truly transportable software solution that lives on from one server generation to the next.

Enduring ROI and Cost Savings



DataCore Delivers Cost & Energy Savings, Simplicity, Performance & Productivity

  • Dramatically improves disk utilization through storage consolidation, pooling and thin storage provisioning that puts "Fat Storage" on a diet and reduces energy and space requirements by as much as 50%.
  • Reduces operational burden by centralizing and automating storage administration across like or dissimilar equipment.
  • Slashes planned and unplanned downtime using non-disruptive, automatic failover and failback recovery, thin provisioning, thin replication and disaster recovery techniques.
  • Increases performance, connectivity and productivity, allowing you to get more work done in less time and support more users with existing personnel and resources.

Optimize & Consolidate your Storage Resources
DataCore fundamentally changes for the better the economics of IT investment and productivity by consolidating underutilized storage resources, and pools them so that you can use and manage them much more efficiently and effectively. The result is that you don’t have to buy 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.
