Hello All,<br />
<br />
A colleague of mine is looking to purchase Condusiv Velocity but wanted to know if it is worth it. A little bit about the environment:<br />
<br />
Fully virtualized Hyper-V 2012 R2 environment running on a Dell Compellent SAN. The Dell Compellent is a Tiered Storage solution meaning that all of the writes ideally take place on Tier 1 and the data progresses to Tier 3 until a change is made.<br />
<br />
My colleague is interested in buying Condusiv Velocity but my concern is that the application will work a lot like Disk keeper and make all of the Data funnel into Tier 1 storage because it has a continuing defrag happening. <br />
<br />
Has anybody used Velocity? Do you feel it's a valuable purchase?

Software Recommendation with Dell Compellent SAN and Condusiv Velocity

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
