Virtualization Review: FalconStor Network Storage Server does far more than virtualize and serve up storage
"...Deployment, configuration, provisioning and protecting volumes; creating and recovering snapshots; and the FalconStor CDP solution all stand out. I also like that the product can integrate with third party data-protection software....The FalconStor NSS is a solid platform that makes presenting several back-end storage arrays—even from different vendors—to servers as a single cohesive set of storage resources easy to do. The physical and virtual FalconStor NSS appliances perform well, and are quick to deploy and easy to manage..."
Corporate Server Virtualization Initiatives Demand A More Complete Storage Virtualization Solution
Using the FalconStor® Network Storage Server (NSS) software as the foundation for a networked storage infrastructure, IT can expand upon today’s server virtualization initiatives to deliver a broader virtualization strategy that includes virtualizing an organization’s current and new storage assets without compromising on enterprise requirements.
FalconStor Enables Virtual SANs for VMware
FalconStor has packaged its storage virtualization software as a VMware virtual appliance. By transforming direct-attached storage into an iSCSI virtual SAN, FalconStor is not only enabling end-users’ server virtualization environments to take advantage of VMware business continuity and high availability features, but is also creating a cost-effective server and storage virtualization environment likely to influence VMware sales.
Reducing Costs and Creating a More Secure IT Environment with a Holistic Approach to Data Protection
IDC interviewed eight FalconStor customers that had deployed at least one or a combination of the following FalconStor storage management solutions: Virtual Tape Library (VTL), Network Storage Server (NSS), and Continuous Data Protector (CDP). All customers reported high levels of satisfaction with and enjoyed considerable benefits from the FalconStor solutions, including cost reductions, greater system availability, and increased staff productivity.
Turning the Tables on Tape
InfoWorld QuickPulse Survey reports many of today’s organizations are still leveraging unreliable, inadequate tape backup and manual recovery methods, leaving themselves vulnerable to disasters. However, these organizations have growing interest in disaster recovery automation and replication technologies for the future.
FalconStor Provides Data Protection for VMware
There is a strong case for using virtualization to consolidate both server and storage resources, and for good reason. The benefits of server and storage consolidation are clear. The utilization of physical resources is greatly improved, leading to long-term cost savings and the simplification of IT administrative tasks. A side benefit is that reductions in an IT infrastructure footprint can have green benefits, such as reductions in power cooling requirements.

FalconStor and Recovery Management
Continuous data protection (CDP) as a technology class, continuously saves every change made to protected data. Writes are split between primary storage and CDP disk, which captures changes and stores them for any-point-in-time recovery. Snapshot technology also has a vital part to play in CDP. FalconStor Continuous Data Protector fits firmly into this class. In concert with additional FalconStor capabilities, FalconStor CDP presents a full slate of fully integrated data protection capabilities.
FalconStor Continuous Data Protector Solution Profile
FalconStor Continuous Data Protector enables fully integrated continuous protection in the data center, as well as at remote recovery sites. The result is continuous data, application and system availability for critical systems at an exceptionally favorable cost.
FalconStor Introduces Virtual CDP Appliance
FalconStor has introduced Virtual Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Appliance for virtualized environments in the SMB market. FalconStor's Virtual CDP Appliance provides disk-based backup and disaster recovery for both Virtual Machines (VMs) and physical servers. FalconStor leveraged its flagship IPStor technology to develop the software appliance for a market hungry for enterprise level data protection features at a low cost.

Enterprise Shops Still Opting for VTLs As their Preferred Deduplication Target
FalconStor VTL offers the deduplication capabilities and support that enterprises seek and provides a road map and platform that not only meets an organization's needs Day One but can be grown and adapted as an organization's backup infrastructure evolves.
FalconStor Virtual Tape Library (VTL) and Deduplication Performance
Virtual tape libraries (VTL) are a key technology that can save a considerable amount of time and storage capacity in the data center by utilizing disk storage that presents itself as a tape library solution. VTLs typically work seamlessly with enterprise backup software and help reduce the amount of time backup operations consume. VTL solutions often bring compression, single-instance store and data deduplication functions that help reduce the total amount of storage capacity required for backup and related activities. VTLs can make a direct positive impact on the backup window as well as recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO).
FalconStor Addresses Top Deduplication Criteria
There are many facets of deduplication solutions to consider prior to deployment. FalconStor VTL with deduplication delivers proof points for end-users’ top purchasing criteria.
FalconStor VTL OpenStorage Option Simplifies Disk Backup
FalconStor Software's new option on its virtual tape libraries to support Symantec's NetBackup OpenStorage application programming interface offers better integration for NetBackup environments.
