Virtualization is not all it's cracked up to be, without the proper framework. Clever "Virtualization" technology masks the differences in storage hardware and presents a unified way to interact with disk/tape devices from different manufacturers. A value-added storage virtualization solution enables IT administrators to create backups and mirror space on disks configured virtually anywhere in a system or across IP networks. It enables disaster recovery services such as replication of data across IP to a remote site, and rapid data and system recovery services such as bare metal recovery and online/nearline disk-based backups.
