DataCore Software is a leading independent software vendor specialising in storage virtualisation, storage management, and storage networking.

SANmelody
SANmelody software caters to small and midsize companies as well as business units and branches of larger enterprises that have maximized their servers' internal disk storage and must expand beyond it.


SANmelody software converts PC servers into cost-effective expansion disk servers. Their added capacity appears as additional internal drives to disk-starved servers on LANs or SANs. This simple solution eliminates the need to commission extra application servers when the existing systems have no more room to add disks. Advanced options include point-in-time snapshots, auto failover across redundant disk servers, auto provisioning of disk space and long-distance asynchronous replication over IP WANs. These functions are host-independent and operate without occupying resources on the application servers.


To enhance application security and availability, SANmelody-equipped disk servers can maintain up to date copies (mirror images) of critical data currently housed on internal disk drives.

SANmelody accelerates performance through built-in caching that minimizes delays from slower mechanical drives. The software equitably distributes the available disk space to multiple applications spread across several machines by carving out smaller logical disks from larger physical disks. Ethernet iSCSI host connections and Fibre Channel high-bandwidth ports are supported. Like other powerful Windows-based software, SANmelody runs on a wide choice of hardware platforms and disk drives. Windows, Linux, Unix, NetWare and MacOS applications may concurrently take advantage of the added gigabytes or terabytes of external disk space.



SANsymphony
SANsymphony software, the open storage management software platform that fundamentally improves the way enterprises manage, purchase and scale the storage infrastructure. Consolidate control and automated storage processes for all your networked heterogeneous storage resources.


SANsymphony software is an enterprise-class open storage networking platform that maximizes the value from IT assets and boosts business productivity. Customers receive enduring ROI benefits from the comprehensive storage management services provided by the software.

SANsymphony doubles effective disk utilisation by pooling disk space from multiple devices and automatically allocating just enough capacity, just-in-time to needy applications. Automating and consolidating storage control easily increases capacity managed per administrator by tenfold. SANsymphony further enhances productivity by eliminating storage-related downtime through non-disruptive provisioning and affordable business continuance options. With these advancements, as well as unprecedented performance and broad connectivity, three times more users can benefit from existing resources.

Many of the benefits derive from advanced techniques that replace labor-intensive, disruptive and time-consuming tasks typically carried out separately for each server and array. Breakthrough hands-free management features include Automated Provisioning of Volumes, flexible Storage Domains, drag-and-drop administration, synchronous and asynchronous remote replication over a broad choice of connections, point-in-time snapshots, and network-wide performance acceleration. These capabilities eliminate wasted time, money and effort to ensure that storage and personnel are most effectively deployed.
