Violin Memory has announced a deal with Symantec to offer flash-optimized data management capabilities designed for highly virtualized environments. The new data management features in the Violin Memory Operating System (vMOS) include; snapshots, clones, thin provisioning, full-disk encryption, de-duplication and asynchronous replication. The net result after nine months worth of work between the two partners is a more robust Tier 1 storage array offering from Violin for enterprises who don’t want to compromise when it comes to handling business critical databases, enterprise applications, VDI, server virtualization and data analytics.
