A dollar short and a few years too late
Virtual storage, let alone tiered storage is
not new and have been around for years. It's
built into many SAN arrays today... Compellent
and 3Par come to mind immediately.

Symantec has their Scalable File Server built
upon Storage Foundation for clustered storage
and nodes. This turns ordinary commodity
servers into a high powered clustered NAS,
using any backend FC storage you have.

Isilon has their iteration... F5/Acopia, and
more...

I'd rather see an evaluation of the various
technologies and see pro's and con's to each at
a point product, and how it wraps into an
entire solution. Like how to back it up, how
to add storage, how to add performance, etc...
And above all, some sort of $ per GB, $ per
GB/s, and ROI models.
