Client and VMware vCenter®. Working with VMware, Supermicro delivers an alternative to traditional
Fiber Channel SAN based virtualization infrastructure, which is known for its complexity andinteroperability challenges. Targeted at a multitude of use cases in tier 1/2 production workloads andVirtualized Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), especially with all-flash, Supermicro’s vSAN ReadyNodes™
introduce a new high performance storage tier optimized for enterprise-class virtual environments that issimple, resilient and efficient. It is a simplified HCI solution for Enterprise Remote Office/Branch Offices(ROBOs) and Small and Medium-Sized Businesses (SMBs) to efficiently grow and manage virtualized
infrastructure for maximum ROI.
