First NVMe/TCP Storage Solution with VMware Certification

With NVMe over TCP support available in VMware ESXi 7 and beyond, users can now adopt NVMe-oF in a simple and frictionless way and enjoy better application performance and improved resource efficiency.

For on-premises deployments, Lightbits is fully certified for VMware ESXi 7.0U3, which allows VMware users to leverage standard Ethernet TCP/IP networks to deploy high-performance, highly available clustered storage to accelerate applications.

Furthermore, Lightbits disaggregated, software-defined storage provides seamless integration with vCenter, allowing virtualized applications to easily consume and manage high-performance, feature-rich NVMe storage while decoupling storage from compute resources for better resource efficiency and lower costs.

Storage Simplified for VMware Environments

Simple

Lightbits seamlessly integrates with VMware, offering standard, simple, secure storage access to any of your ESXi hosts and requiring no changes to your TCP/IP network with no proprietary ESXi drivers.

Flexible

Lightbits runs on any commodity hardware of your choosing . With software license portability, you can move storage resources where and when they are needed.

High Performance

Delivers high IOPS and low latency with the equivalent performance of local flash without proprietary hardware or expensive, premium public cloud storage.

High Resiliency

Improved service levels and a better user experience with consistent low latency offers faster rebuild times and higher resiliency levels.

Lower TCO

Disaggregated architecture dramatically improves resource efficiency and utilization for private deployments to dramatically reduce storage costs.

Highly Available

Highly resilient storage with high availability that extends across the entire virtualized platform and across multiple zones.
