At the intersection of edge computing and simplicity sits StorMagic, a company that's redefining what's possible with hyper-converged infrastructure. In this fascinating conversation with Bruce Kornfeld, Chief Product Officer at StoreMagic, we dive deep into the technology transforming how businesses deploy mission-critical applications at the edge.
The traditional data center approach—with its racks of servers, storage arrays, and networking equipment—simply doesn't work for distributed enterprises with hundreds or thousands of small sites. StoreMagic's brilliance lies in its minimalism: achieving high availability with just two servers instead of three, dramatically reducing both capital and operational costs. As Bruce reveals, customers can deploy a fully redundant system for under $10,000, with TCO savings between 30-80% compared to competitors.
What makes StorMagic particularly relevant today is the perfect storm of market conditions. Meanwhile, the AI revolution demands more processing power at the edge, where data is created and real-time decisions matter most. StoreMagic's solutions bridge these needs by combining open-source foundations with proprietary enhancements that make deployment and management remarkably simple—under an hour, according to Bruce.
The company's latest release, SVHCI version 2, introduces VM migration from VMware environments, snapshot capabilities, and Edge Control—a cloud-based management platform that provides unified visibility across distributed sites. StorMagic is expanding its enterprise focus and strategic partnerships, particularly with HPE. With its rock-solid reliability (less than 0.03% of support tickets involve downtime) and laser focus on simplifying edge computing, StoreMagic is positioning itself at the forefront of a transformative trend in infrastructure.
