Unlike most software-defined storage (SDS) solutions, StorMagic SvSAN was designed for edge computing environments rather than data centers. This is a distinct niche but an important one, given how edge computing is growing.
Otherwise known as the Internet of Things, edge computing creates an enormous amount of data. That StorMagic is moving ahead of the market to service this sector show real industry foresight. That said, it is a still a small company, not well known.
The solution has much to recommend it: StorMagic SvSAN emphasizes simple management, low costs and flexibility. Given the complexity and potential expense of edge computing, those companies focused on IoT may well consider StorMagic.
StorMagic SvSAN is virtualized storage for edge computing environments. While many SDS solutions are designed for large data centers, this product is aimed at remote office and back office locations, industrial IoT, and other environments that need storage that is easy to install and manage. It also has a lightweight footprint and can delivery high availability even when network performance is sub-par.
