Thousands of customers worldwide use DataCore's unique storage virtualization solutions for reliable, high-performance, efficiently managed and cost effective storage infrastructures. Their hardware vendor-independent software packages provide advanced disk provisioning, data protection and cost-effective scalability to maximize your organization's return on investment.

• Cut overall storage costs by 50% or more, while improving user access and response times
   
• Extract 60%-80% more value from your existing storage
   
• Ensure 100% reliability
   
• No depreciation of virtualized storage infrastructure

"No one would ever dream of throwing away Exchange, VMware or Citrix because
the servers they run on became obsolete. So why do we let this happen with
storage?” (George Texeira, President and CEO of DataCore Software)

Unlike traditional storage solutions, DataCore (like Microsoft, VMware and Citrix) is
a portable software solution that radically improves productivity and resource utilization and
survives multiple generations of hardware obsolescence. 

This is how it's done:

Storage consolidation, pooling and thin provisioning simply mean you use less hardware. You reduce direct costs and indirect costs such as energy and space.

Reduce down time and eliminate lost data

Mirror your data to completely independent DataCore servers, with seamless hot failover. These servers can be in different rooms, different buildings or across town to isolate failures ranging from disks to medium-scale power or communication outages. You can even mirror to disaster recovery sites anywhere in the world, asynchronously so performance is not compromised.
 

Use the latest, fastest hardware available

DataCore's storage virtualization solutions are all software packages that run on off-the-shelf, industry standard PC-compatible hardware that are always using the latest and fastest technologies available.   
 

World-class caching algorithms

DataCore's world-class mirrored caching algorithms combined with the latest, fastest and largest memory chips you can always find first on PC-compatible systems means unmatched disk performance. In fact, you can use your existing high end disk arrays as DataCore disks and get 2x to 4x performance increases.
 

Repurpose your existing equipment

DataCore consolidates physical disks into storage pools that can mix and match any existing disk. You can create different pools with different performance levels or upgrade pools without any down time. Instead of having dedicated disks for each user, who typically use on 60% or less of the available space, use the same disks in pools and give your users virtual disk space on demand. DataCore invented this concept, thin provisioning, and is still the technology leader.
 

Centralize management

Your IT staff no longer needs to run around helping each user with their storage requirements. DataCore's straight-forward management displays let you handle all their needs from one secure location.  Your entire organization's data is backed up at all times without your end-users taking any action, or even being aware or it.
