Hola.

Los amigos de StarWind, realizarán el próximo martes día 24, un Webcast con el título “Best Practices for Storage Virtualization and Backup”, durante la sesión Denny Cherry Microsoft MVP en SQL, explicará la solución de StarWind, su capacidad de replicación y CDP.

Caching. StarWind has a multi-level cache mechanism implemented. The cache can use gigabytes of RAM and converts it into to extremely fast level 1 write-back or write-through cache, providing superior storage performance over many conventional SANs.
