- VMware vSAN can be deployed in a 2-node cluster.
- vSAN ESA 2-node clusters provide excellent performance and availability in a small form factor.
- A vSAN Witness Host virtual appliance enables protection against "split-brain."
Introduction
VMware's vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) has streamlined hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) by optimizing performance and efficiency. A particularly compelling deployment model within this architecture is the 2-node cluster. This setup offers a high-availability solution ideal for small sites and edge computing environments where space and hardware resources are limited.
