2. VMware vSAN

VMware vSAN has made our infrastructure simpler, faster and more resilient. By moving to a hyper converged setup on Dell R740xd nodes across two sites, we eliminated separate storage hardware, cut down on cabling and power, and centralized management through vCenter. Integration with ESXi and NSX feels seamless, micro segmentation and security policies apply directly at the VM level without complex network changes. Performance has been solid for our critical workloads, and the hybrid configuration (SSD, HDD) capacity gives us a good balance of cost and speed.
