BEVERLY, MA, UNITED STATES, September 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- StarWind, a leading provider of hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) for Enterprise ROBO, SMB, & Edge, has announced that Bosch Security and Safety Systems, a global leader in security, safety, and communications solutions, has enhanced its well-known security and surveillance solution, Bosch BIS, with a cost-effective high-availability option by integrating StarWind Virtual SAN.

This integration provides Bosch BIS customers with greater flexibility in configuring a reliable and redundant security and surveillance infrastructure.

Challenge:

The Bosch Building Integration System (BIS) is a software solution that manages different security subsystems like access control, video surveillance, fire alarm systems, public address (PA) systems or intrusion systems on one single platform. Bosch BIS is capable of High Availability which, at the same time, requires shared storage. Traditional iSCSI or FC SAN shared storage is notoriously expensive, complex to configure, have a large rack and thermal footprint.

Solution:

By integrating StarWind into its solution, Bosch Security and Safety Systems completely eliminated the need for expensive SAN, NAS, or other physical shared storage. StarWind Virtual SAN seamlessly integrates into the hypervisor, delivering unbeatable performance and exceptional simplicity. StarWind allows Bosch BIS to run on high-performance, low-cost, low-footprint, and energy-efficient infrastructure.

High Availability

StarWind Virtual SAN provided a simple yet powerful solution for Bosch BIS redundancy and high availability, maximizing performance and eliminating the risk of downtime.

Cost Efficiency

Deploying StarWind VSAN on just two nodes significantly reduced the costs typically associated with high-availability infrastructures. This included savings on rack space, power consumption, and the elimination of additional hardware purchases.

Exceptional Simplicity

StarWind’s seamless integration with Microsoft Hyper-V Failover Cluster facilitated straightforward deployment and management, boosting overall system performance and operational simplicity.

The successful integration of StarWind enabled Bosch Security and Safety Systems to deliver exceptional service and support to its clients, ensuring continuous safety and security across critical infrastructures, including airports, defense installations, industrial sites, and healthcare facilities.

“StarWind Virtual SAN enabled us to achieve redundancy with just two nodes, reducing our overall infrastructure costs and power consumption while building a reliable Hyper-V failover cluster without the need for hardware SAN,” said a representative from Bosch Security and Safety Systems.
