Implementing distributed load-balancing technology on a virtualized foundation, Infortrend scale-out allows users to increase performance by adding new systems to an existing virtual pool. Load-balancing technology automatically migrates existing data to balance workloads across the environment and maintains optimized performance by evenly distributing data blocks among member systems of the virtual pool. Without disrupting online service, scale-out storage combines the power of existing and new systems to linearly boost productivity in a cost-effective way.
