Software-defined storage

Software-defined storage allows customers to build shared storage with storage software that provides SAN and NAS capability, including in some cases with full enterprise features such as replication, snapshots, integration with virtualisation platforms, tiered storage and flash drives. Software-defined storage products allow customers to build shared pools of storage from commodity servers, existing storage array capacity or unused direct-attached storage.
