StarWind Server is an advanced, reliable and powerful iSCSI Target application that converts any Windows server into a Storage Area Network (SAN) in less than 20 minutes. Storage can be consolidated, virtualised and centrally managed. StarWind's unlimited data storage scalability makes it perfect for any organisation.

• Consolidate and Virtualise Storage and Servers
• Enhance Virtualisation Environments with Shared Storage
• Improve Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plans
• Leverage Existing Infrastructure
• Created Mirrored Fail-Safe Volumes
• Replicate Mission Critical Data

In many cases StarWind does not require you to buy new hardware because you can take advantage of your existing Ethernet and IP network infrastructure while leveraging server and storage resources that you already own. If you do have to make additional purchases, you only need standard off-the-shelf hardware rather than high priced proprietory appliances or networking devices found in traditional SANs, including fibre channel.

A Better SAN

Traditional proprietory SANs require substantial investments for new equipment, the facilities to house it, expensive networking equipment to carry the data and costly personnel training. The iSCSI SAN from StarWind Software requires none of these things, delivering a more efficient and cost-effective IP SAN solution.

Enterprise-level performance at an affordable price for small and medium businesses

StarWind puts high-performance, high-capacity SANs within the reach of any organisation's IT budget. The StarWind SAN solution enables small and medium-size organisations to reap the benefits of enterprise-level solutions without the costs associated with their implementation and administration.

Unlimited Potential

While StarWind is  reducing your total cost of data storage ownership, it does not skimp on performance. SAN services for storage provisioning or data protection. Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Services (VSS) compatible dynamic volume snapshots and automatic incremental backups make disaster recovery and backup initiatives a breeze. All this and as many Terabytes as you want.
