What are hyperconverged system solutions?

Hyperconverged System solutions and their Benefits

By implementing a hyperconverged infrastructure, companies can benefit from different system strengths:

• Cost advantages thanks to hyper-convergenceCompared to traditional virtualization solutions in conjunction with storage servers or clusters, a hyperconverged infrastructure is significantly less expensive.
• Strong performance within the infrastructureHyperconverged systems offers low latency and high transfer rates by using DAS (Direct Attached Storage) combined with high system stability.
• Easy scalability of HCIs

  Another key benefit of hyperconverged systems is the ability to seamlessly scale horizontally by adding more nodes to the cluster. This allows both storage and computing resources to be expanded as needed without encountering bottlenecks.

  Many virtualization solutions now offer the inherent ability to form on-host storage clusters, eliminating the need for expensive external SAN hardware.

HCI: Infrastructure for Hyperconverged Systems

Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct - S2D 
In the Data Centre editions of the current Windows servers, Microsoft also took a hyperconverged storage approach by integrating the option for creating storage pools across hosts. With automatic tiering and caching on low latency NVMe Drives, Hyper-V with Storage Spaces Direct is a cost-effective alternative for hyperconverged virtualization clusters.

Together with SuperMicro, HAPPYWARE offers you certified appliances for Microsoft S2D deployments. In addition, we also provide individually configured and optimized systems to meet your requirements.

In many cases, however, it makes sense to use established software-defined storage products such as SANsymphony-V from DataCore - in particular for business-critical data and applications.

In many cases, however, it makes sense to use established software-defined storage products such as SANsymphony-V from DataCore - in particular for business-critical data and applications.

Depending on the type of hypervisor used, the software can be installed directly on the host or alternatively run in a virtual machine (VM). In addition to the extended functional scope of the storage software, you have access to DataCore Enterprise Support at any time and can therefore establish a strong foundation for your business.

DataCore setups are also planned individually in hyperconverged deployments and installed on site. This means that your administrators will be immediately familiar with the environment.

Hyperconverged systems and their setup - Support by HAPPYWARE

To avoid bottlenecks in operation, a hyperconverged setup requires detailed planning, regardless of the preferred solution. Choosing the best network and system components can be critical to the performance of a cluster.

At HAPPYWARE, we help you find and configure a hypervisor that fits your needs and your budget. Benefit from our experience and support.
