V-8000 Virtual I/O Server
Reducing Costs with the V-8000
3Leaf Management Solution
Compatibility
Virtualization delivers high availability and resiliency for commodity servers.

3Leaf Systems V-8000 delivers the next generation of server virtualization by virtualizing the networking and storage I/O for large pools of compute nodes using standard industry commodity hardware. The V-8000 delivers mainframe-class availability and resiliency for commodity systems while dramatically reducing both capital and maintenance costs.

NEW! PowerCockpit Provisioning and Server Management Software for 3Leaf V-8000

Advanced PowerCockpit software delivers dynamic provisioning and migration to heterogeneous virtual and physical environments.

  • Fast provisioning of new and existing servers using library of operating system and application images
  • Complete support for all x86-based Linux and Windows machines
  • Comprehensive machine migration supports physical-to-physical, physical-to-virtual, virtual-to-virtual, and virtual-to-physical
  • Automatic data center-wide software update and patch management
  • Drastic reduction in operating expenses for data centers leveraging multiple vendors and operating systems
The V-8000 delivers the following key features and benefits to the pools of servers that it supports:

  • Faster server deployment

    1. Server put into service in minutes via pre-defined server profiles
    2. Networking and storage resources pre-allocated to the profiles
  • Quality of Service for networking and storage resources

    1. Improved availability and utilization of resources
    2. Resource allocation configurable per virtual interface
    3. Resource managed via defined limits and guarantees
  • High availability

    1. Fully redundant internal architecture
    2. Automatic failover
    3. Built-in Multipathing
    4. Scalable: load balancing across all active devices
  • Less downtime

    1. Infrastructure reduction
    2. Reduced number and flavor of software drivers

In addition, the V-8000 offers a centralized management platform that can manage multiple V-8000s and their associated compute nodes via multiple interfaces including a CLI, user-friendly GUI, and API.

The V-8000 has emerged as a new standard in virtualization by maximizing connectivity while minimizing hardware outlays and management overhead, streamlining the deployment and provisioning of new compute nodes, increasing the utilization and availability of server resources, and reducing system downtime. The consolidation of resources, increased utilization, and higher resiliency significantly reduces both capital costs and operating costs.
