DataCore Software is the leading storage virtualisation and SAN management software supplier that has deployed thousands of virtual SANs around the world.

DataCore's Software solutions do to storage what VMware does for servers and what Citrix does to desktop access. DataCore software makes storage and SAN infrastructures fault tolerant, flexible and virtual. As the virtual storage layer, it completes a Total Enterprise Virtualisation strategy; cost effectively optimising disk space utilisation, accelerating I/O performance, eliminating downtime and allowing for complete hardware independence.

Solutions Provided by DataCore Products
DataCore is a software solution that is hardware independent and provides all the same cost savings and ROI advantages for storage that VMware/Citrix provide for the server and desktop. DataCore adds the 'Storage Server' personality/functionality to standard servers, just as VMware transforms standard servers into VMachine servers.

Powerful DataCore solutions deliver:

• Dramatically better disk utilisation through storage resource pooling, auto provisioning (Virtual Capacity) and tiered storage classes
• Reduced operational burden by centralising and automating storage administration across like or dissimilar equipment
• Slashes planned and unplanned downtime using non-disruptive storage provisioning, replication, and data protection and disaster recovery techniques
• Enhanced performance, connectivity and productivity allowing customers to support more users with existing resources and personnel
