Virtualization-Ready Platform
Synology's native hypervisor, Virtual Machine
Manager, allows you to manage multiple virtual
machines on your FS3600 and run Windows®,
Linux®, and Virtual DSM applications on your
Synology NAS.
Running & Protecting Virtual Machines
Synology Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) is an intuitive hypervisor
application that lets users easily set up virtual machines and run
operating systems including Windows®, Linux®, and Virtual DSM. With
VMM, users can build up a cluster environment with multiple Synology
systems while keeping the exibility to scale out online and migrate
virtual machines for load balancing and resource allocation. Disaster
recovery features including instant snapshot, replication, cloning, restore
and failover help you fully protect each virtual machine and safeguard
your digital assets at no additional cost.
VMM Pro licenses give access to advanced features including remote
replication, remote storage migration, high availability and live migration,
helping users further minimize the risk of service downtime and manage
IT resources with maximum exibility.
Service Continuity Safeguards
Service continuity is critical for modern businesses. FS3600 brings
thoughtful software and hardware integration to ensure a high standard
of system availability if a disaster or major outage occurs.
Snapshot Replication
State-of-the-art data snapshot technology allows
exible point-in-time recovery of les, while
only using a fraction of the storage space and
computing resources required for traditional
backup.
• Synology High Availability provides fast transitions between clustered
servers to keep services online.
• Snapshot Replication provides schedulable, near-instantaneous data
protection with version control, ensuring that documents in shared
folders and VMs on iSCSI LUNs remain safe and available.
• Redundant components, including power supply units, system fans,
and network ports support automatic failover to eliminate single points
of hardware failure.
