StorMagic SvHCI expands

StorMagic has introduced version 2.0 of its SvHCI full-stack HCI (hyperconverged infrastructure) solution, which is purpose-built for enterprise edge and small to medium-sized business (SMB) environments. SvHCI is the most cost-effective HCI solution for the edge, saving customers up to 62% on software alone compared to VMware alternatives.

Originally introduced in June 2024, the key new features in SvHCI 2.0 include:

VM Snapshots — The ability to take snapshots of all VMs, roll-back software updates and point-in-time records, enabling advanced data protection.

Edge Control Monitoring and Management – This enterprise-scale fleet management capability now offers centralised, cloud-based access to all SvHCI systems, and allows users to control hundreds or thousands of remote edge sites.

VM Import – Customers can quickly, reliably and affordably migrate VMware VMs to StorMagic SvHCI, while significantly reducing time to production.

“StorMagic’s introduction of SvHCI positions it as a key player in the market, as the solution helps customers meet their needs today by lowering TCO, streamlining operations and simplifying their overall management experience,” said Mitch Ashley, VP and practice lead of devops and application development for The Futurum Group. ”Enterprise edge and SMB customers looking to migrate from the escalating costs of virtualisation technologies like VMware to contemporary enterprise edge and SMB platforms should seriously consider a move to SvHCI as an effective transition path to modern, more efficient data management.”

Additional new SvHCI features include: expanded virtual NIC and virtual disk support; enhanced VM per host density; ability to deploy stretched clusters; and support for Intel Virtual RAID on CPU (VROC) embedded storage controller.

“Thanks to the market disruption caused by Broadcom, the demand for alternative hypervisors is booming,” said Bruce Kornfeld, chief product officer, StorMagic. “SvHCI 2.0 introduces new capabilities that make it even easier for customers to manage their HCI infrastructure and keep applications running, all at the lowest possible cost.”
