Aerodisk vAIR v2 with doubled performance

On November 26, 2020, Aerodisk, a domestic developer of storage and virtualization solutions, introduced the next version of the Aerodisk vAIR v2 hyperconvergent system.

System performance doubled; in addition, this version is characterized by increased reliability and flexibility. The updated hyperconvergent system includes the Aerodisk AIST hypervisor, which has now become available to customers as a separate product.

The hyperconvergent Aerodisk vAIR system is used to create corporate IT Infrastructure turnkey, VDI infrastructure, work with distributed computing and, big data as well as build infrastructure. cloudy providers

This version of Aerodisk vAIR v2 can be delivered not only as part of a comprehensive solution together with Aerodisk equipment, as was the case in the previous version, but also in the form of software installed on standard customer server equipment. The hyperconvergent system includes a distributed storage system based on the ARDFS file system, a virtualization system, namely the built-in Aerodisk AIST hypervisor, as well as a network component.

Requirements for Aerodisk vAIR installation equipment have been significantly reduced. Previously, the simplest configuration was represented by four computing nodes. In this version, the minimum system requirements have been reduced to three nodes. In addition, in it, the cluster can be sequentially increased by one computing node - previously the smallest "step" could consist of only two nodes. In general, the cluster can be extended to 1024 computing nodes.

One of the key updates to the system was the ability to use the Aerodisk AIST hypervisor as a stand-alone solution. System functionality includes hardware virtualization, Five 9s (99,999%) high availability, load balancing, backup, and built-in centralized monitoring. The AIST hypervisor has a distributed management system and database, which increases the availability of the virtualization cluster, simplifies maintenance and disaster recovery. This distinguishes it from most, including foreign competitive decisions. As a result, Aerodisk AIST helps organizations of all sizes to work conveniently and with their virtual machines.

Solutions that can simplify and unify IT infrastructure are gaining popularity in Russia and around the world. Hypercovergent systems are ideal for this - in fact, this is a data center that fits in one "box," said Vyacheslav Volodkovich, general director of Aerodisk. - Aerodisk vAIR has not only its flexibility and high performance. This is a completely domestic development that Russian organizations can use without risk, including in critical information infrastructure (CII) systems. And the Aerodisk AIST solution in general has become a full-featured Russian hypervisor on the market with round-the-clock technical support throughout our country.

For vAIR and AIST systems, as well as other Aerodisk products, round-the-clock technical support is provided, including training of customer specialists in all regions of Russia and the CIS countries.

Technical support is half the product. Therefore, for all our solutions, we have provided a full A-class technical support cycle for our customers: training, implementation assistance, operation and upgrade assistance, solving problems with related systems, and so on. Without such an approach to support from the manufacturer, in our opinion, not a single serious product can exist, "adds Vyacheslav Volodkovich.

In the future, Aerodisk also plans to expand the list of equipment compatible with Aerodisk vAIR and Aerodisk AIST, as well as continue the process of their integration with security systems, backup systems, VDI systems and other related solutions.
