Networked attached storage (NAS) is increasingly becoming the storage infrastructure of choice for new VMware deployments today. NAS offers several advantages over traditional SAN storage, including lower network costs and easier provisioning for VMware datastores, with a potential tradeoff in I/O performance. F5 Acopia FreedomFabric network operating system software uniquely complements VMware Infrastructure 3 in NAS environments, expanding the ease of provisioning and increasing availability of virtual machines, while addressing the performance challenges of VMware on NAS. |
