block storage
About this tag
Block storage is a foundational technology for enterprise IT, providing raw, high-performance storage volumes that are commonly used in databases, virtual machines, and critical applications. Recent discussions on WindowsForum highlight how major vendors like Hitachi Vantara and Vast Data are integrating block storage into hybrid cloud and software-defined storage solutions. Hitachi's VSP One SDS now available on Azure Marketplace brings enterprise block storage features to the cloud, while Vast Data's Universal Storage platform adds native block support alongside object and file storage. These developments emphasize the importance of block storage in modern data centers, especially for Windows-centric environments requiring low-latency, consistent performance. The tag covers topics such as hybrid cloud storage, software-defined storage, and caching gateways that bridge block and object storage.
