vSANvSphere By distributing copies of data across devices, hosts,
and racks, vSAN delivers continuous protection
against one or more hardware failures
Level of protection can be assigned on the fly and
per-VM and per-VMDK using the Failure-to-Tolerate
(FTT) policy
With FTT=2, vSAN offers 6-9s availability which is
less than 32 seconds of downtime per year
Ability to define vSAN fault domains adds rack
aware protection
