Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

Why VSAN and ROBO is a Perfect Match

In my many conversations with customers I hear the same feedback over and over: Customers spend too much money on ROBO solutions. Customers do not have infrastructure staff on site Customers don’t run enough compute to justify large amounts of infrastructure Customers typical scale storage capacity on site, rather than compute and performance. In VSAN 6.1 we are removing the requirement for 3 physical VSAN Nodes. By placing the witness VM offsite in the customers central datacenter or even vCloud Air this will allow the customer to deploy only 2 physical nodes on site.
