VMware vSAN (Virtual SAN) is a software-defined storage solution that pools local storage from ESXi hosts in a cluster into a shared datastore, eliminating the need for traditional external SAN hardware. Administrators use it to simplify storage management and reduce costs in hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) deployments. It's tightly integrated with vSphere and often used alongside NSX in software-defined data centers.
