The new VMware vSAN is the sixth generation of VMware’s enterprise-grade native storage for vSphere, a storage platform built for business-critical and cloud-native applications, virtual desktop infrastructure and disaster recovery environments.

vSAN 6.6 is designed to enable customers to evolve their infrastructure with minimal risk, this being through native encryption, robust availability and a wide choice of hardware platforms like flash technologies such as Intel Optane SSDs.

The HCI security is a software-defined encryption solution, which features simplified key management that is built to protect against unwanted access to data.
