PerfectDisk vSphere - Features

Current Features

• Virtual Infrastructure Awareness Technology: Virtual infrastructure awareness technology monitors resource availability at the physical host level and enables high resource availability and intelligent real time I/O prioritization during file system optimisation.
  
• Eliminate vSphere Guest I/O bottlenecks: PerfectDisk vSphere is a complete solution that optimizes your physical host, guest machines, and your storage solution to eliminate I/O throughput and I/O latency bottlenecks.
  
• Space Management: PerfectDisk's Space Management recovers disk space by detecting and removing duplicate files such as text documents, pictures, music, and videos.
• P2P Remote Capability: Take control of any client running on a remote computer with the power to access features normally only accessible via a local client.
  
• Automatic background optimisation: PerfectDisk's new OptiWrite technology prevents most fragmentation on your drive before it occurs, which prevents your system from slowing down. OptiWrite detects when Windows is going to fragment files and intelligently redirects I/O to stop the fragmentation from occurring.
  
• Short Stroke Method for Thin-Provisioned Environments: Short Stroke method improves optimisation speed and improves support for thin provisioned drives:
  • Allows for optimisation of thin provisioned disks without introducing excessive growth.
    
  • Accelerate the optimisation of large disk array by drastically shortening seek times for all electromechanical drive types and arrays.
• Dramatically Improve vSphere Performance: Proven to increase I/O throughput, and decrease I/O request latency by 35% or more. PerfectDisk vSphere enables the best possible performance for your virtual machines and maximizes the performance of your storage solution. Using I/O prioritization for zero resource contention overhead, PerfectDisk vSphere optimizes server virtualization performance management by defragging file systems for increased IOP performance and completely eliminating performance issues relating to split I/O requests. Testing performed on identical disks using VMwares vscsiStats show that defragmentation of Windows guest VMs delivers significant performance and throughput improvements. The PerfectDisk defragmented disk produced the following:
  • 28% reduction in total IO
    
  • 1,200% improvement in large I/O (>524K)
    
  • 49% reduction in I/O taking longer than 15ms
    
  • 28% improvement in throughput
• VMware Technical Alliance Partner Solution: PerfectDisk vSphere is a Native 64-bit application providing exceptional performance on 64-bit vSphere guests. PerfectDisk vSphere supports virtual machines of all server roles, including Clustered and non-Clustered SQL Server, Exchange Server and File & Print server roles.
