E.ON Implements StorMagic SvSAN

StorMagic, Inc., provider of enterprise virtual storage for virtual-server environments,
announced that E.ON Climate & Renewables GmbH, a subsidiary of E.ON AG, is implementing the SvSAN storage
virtual appliance in more than 100 remote locations worldwide.

"StorMagic’s SvSAN
storage virtual appliance solution enables us to cost effectively implement
simple, 2-server highly available systems with minimal hardware requirements,"
explained Uwe Fischer, head of Asset Information Systems at E-ON Climate &
Renewables GmbH. "With VMware and
StorMagic’s SvSAN at each location, we dramatically reduce the risk of downtime
for energy-production applications and eliminate the need for on-site support."

For E-ON, the SvSAN solution enables HA for energy production
applications and the control of local equipment in very remote renewable-energy
facilities. These locations support wind turbines, solar farms and biomass
plants. StorMagic partner, Stainczyk & Partner GmbH, developed and
implemented the proof of concept and is supporting the ongoing roll out, which
leverages SvSAN storage virtual appliance.

"SvSAN has become a
popular solution for organizations with branch and remote office environments,
because it makes high availability simpler and more affordable,"
responded Hans O’Sullivan, CEO at StorMagic.

StorMagic has experienced growth as a result of the
adoption of the SvSAN storage virtual appliance solution into virtualized
multi-site and branch-office environments.
