Reduxio vs. StorMagic SvSAN

Reduxio fit into our plans for replacing our aging EMC VNX5500. We were able to reduce our data center footprint from 50 rack units down to 8. The data dedupe or "No-Dupe" as they call it was the main reason for the reduced footprint. We also use VSphere and the API's that tie into VCenter work very well. Your able to carve out storage right from the VCenter web client. Reduxio may be less appropriate when used as a backup repository.

The StorMagic SvSAN solution is certainly suitable for two-node architectures where business continuity is required at a reasonable price, with a workload that is not particularly complex. It is not the right solution if you have a virtual environment with a large number of VMs and workloads that require high performance.

• High performance.
• Backdating feature.
• Professional services.

• Storage Mirroring
• Low Price
• Easy deploy
• Easy management

• Some best practice documentation available online would be nice, however their support is available to answer any questions.
• The available amount of physical storage remaining is sort of ambiguous.
• The marketing of No-Dup is really not a great idea.

• Technical support could be improved
• Inadequate performance for complex environments
• Architecture needs a witness

Deploying the solution is fairly simple. A system administrator with basic data centre knowledge can configure the StorMagic SvSAN suite independently by following the guides provided. Troubleshooting is greatly simplified thanks to the features available in the management interface. The dashboard allows you to easily manage the technology thanks to a very intuitive and well-designed interface.

We were looking for a low cost and high IO performance storage option, and considered Netapp and EMC. Reduxio, as an early stage startup, offered us a test option on their beta site. After more than a year, we got a generally available version, and after an additional 3 months, we went to production.

• One positive impact is the amount of electricity we're saving over the VNX5500
• The Reduxio is much simpler to manage allowing less training time.
• The simplicity of the UI will allow us to hire people that may not have as much experience with enterprise storage.
