Replace your SAN or NAS

with VergeIO's Ultraconverged Infrastructure

Ultra-unified

Ultra-secure

Ultra-scalable

Ultra-affordable

Eliminate the Causes of SAN/NAS Replacement:

  • Coming off of maintenance?

    Future-proof, VergeIO runs for decades, not years!

  • Can’t scale to meet performance or capacity needs?

    VergeIO can scale capacity and performance independently and infinitely

  • Can’t leverage new hardware innovations?

    VergeIO can simultaneously support legacy hardware and modern innovations

Most SAN or NAS storage systems must be replaced or refreshed every four to five years. Organizations typically have five to six storage silos, creating a constant refresh schedule of new hardware and software. It is a never-ending merry-go-round of storage purchases and data migrations. VergeIO’s VergeOS is an ultraconverged infrastructure (UCI) that simplifies IT operations while providing a storage infrastructure that can scale and evolve to meet your needs for decades. With VergeOS, you can lower CAPEX by 50% , OPEX by more than 70%, and never have to go through another storage refresh!

Unified Storage - SAN and NAS from a single solution

6398da3631070e5c5c9ef89e_Storage-Features

With VergeIO, you can consolidate workloads into a single operating environment while improving your data services capabilities.

  • Reduce capacity requirements with global inline data deduplication to eliminate redundant data and lower storage costs.

  • Further lower costs by leveraging our tiering capabilities, placing less performance-demanding data on lower-cost hard disk drives.

Improve your organization’s data availability, protection, and recovery capabilities.

  • Firmware-like software hardens the environment making it less vulnerable to cyber-attack.

  • Frequent, immutable snapshots provide near-instant recovery from ransomware recovery.

  • Retain snapshots indefinitely and recover from any point in time.

VergeIO high-availability features protect from a drive, node, or site failure. It is also a universal storage solution that supports databases and applications, typically requiring a SAN, and file workloads, typically requiring a separate NAS.

Get off the storage refresh merry-go-round, consolidate storage systems, and defend your data from data threats while lowering costs by more than 50% or more.
