Markham, ON – Overland Storage, the trusted global provider of effortless data management and data protection solutions across the data lifecycle, today announced its new family of SnapSAN solutions for high performance computing.

Scalable to 288TBs, the SnapSAN 3000 and SnapSAN 5000 are fully redundant systems with 99.999% availability and set a new benchmark for enterprise level automation and performance capabilities. With an easy-to-use interface for performing transparent, non-disruptive data movement, the new SnapSAN features multidimensional tiers that maintain optimal performance and provisioning without IT intervention.

For enterprise class data protection without the high incremental costs usually associated with such capabilities, both products come standard with real time replication, volume cloning, snapshots and thin provisioning. Certified for Citrix, Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware, both products also have built-in VMware API support, as well as a vCenter plugin for seamlessly integrated administration. Ideally suited for I/O intensive applications, virtualised and private cloud environments, and regulatory compliance, the new SnapSANs from Overland Storage allow administrators to quickly provision storage to easily meet application driven and compliance requirements.

“With the SnapSAN 3000 and 5000, Overland has brought many highly advanced storage features to the mid-market with an all-inclusive price model that is welcomed by customers.
