Features of StarWind

  • CDP (Continuous Data Protection): CDP provides a replication mechanism to ensure an RPO (Recovery Point Objective) of zero data loss for applications that require a lower RPO than asynchronous replication can provide.
  • Data Deduplication: Data Deduplication is a specialized mechanism of data-compression that allows reducing needed storage capacity due to the process of eliminating duplicated data.
  • Failback with Fast Synchronization: Failback to an original system after an automatic failover.
  • High Availability / Automatic Failover: Fault tolerant active-active technology eliminates a single point of failure.
  • Remote / Asynchronous Replication: Replicates your storage to a remote site across a WAN.
  • Snapshots & Clones: Capture point-in-time snapshots with unlimited rollback points or make full volume copies.
  • Synchronous Data Mirroring: Real-time data replication across a 2 node storage cluster.
  • Thin Provisioning: Allocate space dynamically for highly efficient disk utilization.
