Rising flash costs tempt IT planners to reduce N+2 data availability to N+1. That logic is wrong. AI is driving both the price increases and the growing value of your data. The answer is not less protection. It is smarter protection through triple mirrors, repair servers, and commodity drives.
Many IT teams searching for a VMware alternative overlook networking costs. Proprietary switches, firewalls, and VPN appliances add unnecessary expenses. By integrating SDN into the hypervisor, organizations can eliminate licensing fees, reduce hardware costs, and simplify management—without sacrificing performance or security. Now is the time to rethink networking.
Many IT professionals overly rely on backup software for data protection, which should be a secondary measure. Infrastructure software is crucial for ensuring data resiliency, uptime, and handling hardware failures. It provides proactive solutions like real-time snapshots and high availability, minimizing reliance on backup systems and enabling quicker recovery.
