Parallels Storage (Pstorage) is a highly-available distributed storage (virtual SAN) with built-in replication and disaster recovery. Pstorage provides a storage virtualization platform on top of commodity hardware with locally attached hard drives and enables the unification of storage into a cluster in scenarios like virtualization with the help of virtual machines (VMs) and/or Containers (CTs). Pstorage ensures a fast live migration of VMs and CTs across hardware nodes, without the need to copy VM/CT data, and high availability as the storage becomes available remotely.
See a brief video on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oEzW9w-1rg].
The main Pstorage features are listed below:
* Scales to Petabytes
* More uniform hardware performance and capacity utilization across the nodes, so overutilized nodes benefit from idle ones.
* High performance - comparable to SAN (FIXME link).
