Hyperconvergence

At the heart of hyper-convergence lies a new intelligence in software. Thanks to this development key, servers, storage, and virtualization software converge into a single object, known as an appliance, governed by a single program that acts as a management controller. Ideally, this model collapses an entire data center into a node that is managed through a simpler and more intuitive user interface.

The system's expansion occurs through the addition of one or more nodes (appliances) that are integrated into the base infrastructure.

By achieving a real convergence between computing and shared storage, it's possible to "scale" without limits, increasing computing capacity, storage capacity, and performance as needed.

In just a few minutes, you can create a virtual infrastructure that is easy to manage and, most importantly, scalable. As data and capacity needs grow, you simply add a new appliance to double and extend the resources already owned, even years later. This avoids the risk and cost of having to equip your Company in advance with an infrastructure that is oversized compared to the actual needs, thereby increasing the predictability of investments in a pay-as-you-grow approach.

Those who adopt hyper-converged platforms want to take advantage of a traditional storage system, without the need to add proprietary storage arrays and the related management and optimization expenses.

The solution achieves a real convergence between storage and CPU, thereby reducing the complexity of the virtual infrastructure to the benefit of performance, simplicity, and scalability. It will no longer be necessary to size and purchase shared storage to connect to servers; instead, as data grows, a new appliance (compute and storage) will be purchased and connected to the existing ones.
