Veritas Storage Foundation Standard vs Veritas Storage Foundation Enterprise

[Wangui]

What's the difference in features with these two editions?

[mikebounds]

Enterprise edition adds the following features:

Veritas Storage Checkpoint (Point in time copy in the filesystem)

Veritas Flashsnap (instant and space-optimised snapshots, fast resync of mirrors and diskgroup split & join)

Veritas Dynamic Storage Tiering (automatically assign data to different tiers of storage)

Site Awareness (help when mirroring data across 2 sites)

• Veritas Storage Foundation Enterprise— Intended for
enterprise environments, this version offers full
functionality, including FlashSnap, SmartTier, deduplication, compression, thin provisioning
optimization, and storage checkpoints

Veritas Storage Foundation Standard—Intended for
systems and workloads that need only some advanced
features, this product offers File System and Volume
Manager capabilities and includes database accelerators. It
also includes advanced features such as SmartTier and
compression.

Veritas Storage Foundation Basic—Intended for smaller
systems, this version is available at no cost and provides
the same robust features as Veritas Storage Foundation
Standard, but is designed for system workloads with no
more than four volumes and/or four file systems per OS
image, and/or two processors/sockets in a single physical
system.
