| %%EMC ScaleIO%% is a software-defined storage product from %%EMC%% Corporation that creates a server-based storage area network (SAN) from local application server storage, converting direct-attached storage into shared block storage. It uses existing host-based internal storage to create a scalable, high-performance, low-cost server SAN. %%EMC promotes its ScaleIO%% server storage-area network software as a way to converge computing resources and commodity storage into a “single-layer architecture.”\\ | %%EMC ScaleIO%% is a software-defined storage product from %%EMC%% Corporation that creates a server-based storage area network (SAN) from local application server storage, converting direct-attached storage into shared block storage.
