It is understood that these solutions will combine Microsoft's experience with Windows operating system to manage clustered server environments with the expertise of LSI to provide highly scalable storage and RAID interconnect technologies.

According to the manufacturers, the joint efforts of the two sides, the solution allows the system without adding network hardware conditions, you can provide full redundancy of shared node storage and application failover function, thereby reducing the HA system cluster cost and complexity, To better serve the server platform using Windows Server 8 of Microsoft's next-generation operating system. These solutions provide clustered DAS for application servers as well as clustered NAS when used in file-servicing environments.

Ha-das, combined with Windows Server, helps cloud data center vendors provide support for more applications and enable their products to scale to larger server clusters while maintaining low latency. For small and medium-sized enterprises running local applications, Ha-das will provide a less costly, easier to deploy and manage solution that avoids the occurrence of application downtime and consequent productivity degradation and loss of revenue. The solution also helps to increase storage utilization, reduce power, cooling, and space requirements to achieve lower total cost of ownership.

Recently, Microsoft has made frequent efforts in cloud computing, after large-scale expansion of the data center, but also began to discuss with LSI storage solutions, and gradually moved to the service line. Windows 8 is also on the horizon, so let's look forward to Microsoft Cloud's full debut.
