EMC VPLEX Virtual Edition
Use EMC VPLEX Virtual Edition software to enable continuous availability in your VMware ESXi environment. VPLEX Virtual Edition simplifies ESXi storage management and provides non-disruptive data mobility over distance to enable stretched ESXi clusters (not included). This software-only product works with EMC VNXe3200 and VNXe3150 iSCSI storage arrays and VMware ESXi 5 or higher.
You can minimize unplanned and planned downtime through disaster avoidance and disaster recovery, workload migration, and load balancing. Achieve near-zero RTO and zero RPO to support mission-critical applications.
EMC VPLEX Virtual Edition runs as a VMware vApp for easy implementation and management. And VPLEX Virtual Edition is affordable to deploy and own because it uses your existing VMware ESXi infrastructure. It creates a two-site active-active storage environment that makes the most of your IT investment.
Key features:
- Mirrors volumes across data storage arrays over synchronous distances
- Extends VMware High Availability (HA): instantly restart virtual machines over distance
- Enables VMware vMotion over distance for instant workload relocation
- Extends VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) over distance for load balancing
- Integrated into VMware vCenter, vSphere, and vSphere web client
