The SVP appliance uses the company’s patented storage virtualization engine (SCVM), and the built-in dual hardware controllers to set up 2 independent and isolated environments, for the VMware, Hyper-V, or Proxmox virtualization host and the SAN, NAS, and/or S3 object target storage, that provide the same experience as dedicated appliances.

  • Isolated dual appliances: Each appliance operates separately, equipped with dedicated hardware controllers, ensuring isolated security zones and no performance bottlenecks or latency.
  • Versatile configuration: The hardware controllers provide flexible configuration options, enabling solution architects to set up:
    1. Virtualization host (source): The primary controller (SC-1) is used to host the hypervisor (VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox), and production VMs with support for iSCSI/FC, CIFS/SMB and NFS, and S3 REST API.
    2. Secure high-performance storage (target): The secondary controller (SC-2) supports flexible configurations including synchronous replication with automated failover/failback, asynchronous replication, immutable and air-gapped storage, S3 object lockdown, immutable FileLock, continuous data protection (CDP), and shared NAS repository.

Key challenges of costly and complex virtualization infrastructure:

  • Complexity: Managing multiple servers, hypervisors, and storage systems across different environments results in complexity and operational overhead.
  • Multiple hardware servers: Separate dedicated servers and storage systems lead to hardware sprawl, increasing costs, resource consumption, and reducing ROIs.
  • Security risks: Ensuring data security across multiple environments poses significant challenges, leaving organizations vulnerable to ransomware attacks, security breaches, and compliance violations.
  • DR complexity: Setting up and managing replication, mirroring, and disaster recovery across multiple servers and sites is complex and resource-intensive.
  • Compliance requirements: Meeting regulatory compliance requirements in regulated industries requires ransomware-proof security measures and data management practices that ensure HA and BC.

StoneFly SVP: secure, affordable and unified appliance:

  • Simplified management: Consolidates critical IT functions into one appliance, simplifying management and reducing complexity.
  • Cost efficiency: By eliminating the need for multiple servers and storage systems, reduces hardware costs and operational expenses, optimizing resource utilization and enhancing ROI.
  • Enhanced security: Advanced air-gapped and immutable security features ensure ransomware protection, data integrity, confidentiality, and mitigating security risks.
  • DR and BC: With built-in DR capabilities, provides a secure platform for replicating critical workloads and data, minimizing downtime and ensuring BC.
  • Regulatory compliance: enables organizations to meet regulatory compliance requirements effortlessly with its security features and integrated data management capabilities.

By integrating virtualization, storage, and data security into a single, cost-effective appliance, our secure virtualization platform simplifies what would otherwise require multiple dedicated servers – often more costly, complex to manage, and susceptible to security breaches. With the SVP appliance, we offer a unified solution that not only saves costs but also streamlines management through a single pane of control, while bolstering security with features like air-gapping and immutability,” explained John Harris, director, technical sales, StoneFly.

The Secure Virtualization Platform (SVP) is available, ushering in a new era of unified simplicity for enterprises looking to streamline their VMware, Hyper-V, and Proxmox virtualization environments.
