Should You Virtualize Your Storage?

If you're looking to simplify your storage management, virtualizing your environment might be your answer. 

Virtualizing your storage with 45Drives can offer some awesome benefits. For example, we use Proxmox to virtualize, which is an open source application.

Why is this beneficial for you? Because you would get a fully supported hyper-converged system without that huge price tag from legacy vendors or ongoing licensing fees from proprietary software. 

It also has many other great benefits, which you can find here. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to our team.

Keep reading this week's Direct Wire for more blogs, articles, and videos on virtualization!
