Technical Sneak Peek on Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory with Microsoft Azure Stack HCI

Many IT departments are looking at hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) to replace their traditional storage area networks (SANs). HCI consolidates software-defined compute, storage, and networking to provide easily scalable virtualization that is high performing and affordable. Microsoft first introduced HCI in Windows Server 2016 with Storage Spaces Direct and Hyper-V. Storage Spaces Direct uses industry-standard servers Technical Sneak Peek on Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory with Microsoft Azure Stack HCI

Microsoft Azure Stack HCI Deep Dive

In March of 2019 Microsoft announced Azure Stack HCI; an on-premise implementation of their Azure cloud service. Julia White, corporate vice president of Microsoft Azure, in a blog post put it this way, “We are bringing our existing HCI technology into the Azure Stack family for customers to run virtualized applications on-premises with direct access Microsoft Azure Stack HCI Deep Dive

2-Node Solutions for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI: The right enterprise-grade solution for SMB, ROBO and edge deployments

It has been an exciting journey since Microsoft introduced software-defined storage with Storage Spaces in Windows Server 2012. With the introduction of Microsoft Azure Stack HCI this year, our enterprise customers are excited and ready to take that next step in transitioning from a traditional SAN to a hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI). HCI brings together compute, storage, 2-Node Solutions for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI: The right enterprise-grade solution for SMB, ROBO and edge deployments

Howard on HCI: A Faster Path to Hybrid Cloud with Azure Stack HCI

When Microsoft introduced Storage Spaces Direct with Windows Server 2016, I was really excited about Microsoft’s entry into hyper-converged infrastructure. No longer were IT administrators tied to purchasing expensive and proprietary SANs. They could now use industry-standard interconnects, x86 servers, and local drives. Microsoft promised simplicity, high performance, easy scalability, simpler operations, and lower costs Howard on HCI: A Faster Path to Hybrid Cloud with Azure Stack HCI
