Triple Mirroring — Hidden Challenges in VMware Alternatives

Traditional triple mirroring introduces hidden costs, complexity, and limited scalability. VergeIO’s ioGuardian offers a powerful alternative, centralizing redundancy with an independent storage server, enabling real-time data recovery during multi-node failures, simplifying management, and achieving significant cost savings. Learn how ioGuardian enhances data resiliency while streamlining your infrastructure protection strategy beyond RF3 limitations.

This World Backup Day, Don’t Back Up. Build Differently.

World Backup Day is a timely reminder that data loss is still a threat—and that most IT environments still rely on traditional backup software to stay safe. But what if your IT infrastructure didn’t need conventional backup strategies? What if your virtual infrastructure could natively…

Using Backups for Storage Failure

All vSANs and Dedicated storage arrays are vulnerable to failure. Backups won’t save you from a multi-drive RAID or full storage system failure. Rebuilds take hours, backup recovery is outdated. VergeOS with ioGuardian ensures instant recovery, keeping workloads online even during catastrophic failures.

Understanding vSAN Snapshots

Understanding vSAN Snapshots is more than just managing VM-level recovery. Without macro recovery, IT teams face extended downtime restoring individual VMs one by one. Learn how VergeOS enables infrastructure-wide snapshots, simplifying disaster recovery, ransomware protection, and multi-tenant environments. Learn why macro recovery is essential for a resilient IT strategy.

A Double-Protected VMware Alternative

A double-protected VMware alternative provides both real-time resiliency and long-term data protection. VergeIO delivers built-in real-time protection, while Storware ensures secure backup retention and archival. This approach enables IT teams to exit VMware without costly hardware refreshes while improving data protection and recovery capabilities.

UCI Enables VMware Exits

VergeIO’s ultraconverged (UCI) platform, VergeOS, and Storware’s advanced backup solutions enable organizations to exit VMware without replacing existing hardware. Retain servers, storage, and backup systems while improving performance, extending hardware lifespan, and ensuring robust data protection, resilience, and long-term data retention. Future-proof your IT infrastructure with this cost-
effective, integrated solution.
