In the next chapter, we will learn how to add additional storage to the AVS data store without adding additional nodes. We will look at the need to expand the data store and the different options to do so.

Storage Concepts in AVS

You can use Azure Storage resources to extend the storage capabilities of your private clouds. AVS provides a native, cluster-wide storage solution using VMware vSAN. The local storage from each host in a cluster is utilized in a vSAN data store, and data-at-rest encryption is enabled by default. To date, the vSAN storage is the fastest storage available in Azure today.

An all-flash VMware vSAN software-defined storage system is used as the storage in the AVS hyper-converged vSphere cluster. When utilizing AVS, the sophisticated software-defined storage solution vSAN offers provides several fantastic benefits.

Throughout this chapter, we will look at the following areas regarding AVS storage:

vSAN clusters

Fault tolerance and storage policies
