Inline Corp, a wholly owned subsidiary of IceWEB, has announced the availability of optional software modules for Iplicity allowing organisations to virtualise underlying storage for virtual machines.
According to IceWEB, the Iplicity VM Data Center add-in module, priced at $1,900 is available immediately for Iplicity 2.1 users. The new software allows virtualisation of storage for VMWare, Citrix/XEN and Microsoft Hyper-V.
Iplicity reportedly enables the management and presentation of underlying storage for virtual servers. Virtualised storage space can be served up to virtual servers via NFS or iSCSI or fiber channel. The management of the storage for these environments is expected to be improved with the use of the Iplicity VM Data Center.
Gary Dunham, senior vice president of product development for Inline, said: Organisations have been swiftly migrating from physical computer servers to virtual server environments – this makes sense from a cost, a deployment, and an environmental perspective. Iplicity gives these organisations the ability to virtualise the underlying storage for all of their servers.

“This capability represents a logical extension or augmentation of those same cost, deployment, and energy conscious goals. The ability to point Virtual Machines at an easily manageable, robust and scalable pool of thinly provisioned virtual storage will save time, increase flexibility, and further the industry’s march toward elasticised cloud computing.
