I just updated my deep dive series on the plugin.
The most important new feature is the support for DataCore's CDP. This allows to lower your RPO for your full stack to a few seconds with just a few clicks.

As someone who’s never had a full lifecycle with datacore, how do you find it?
I love it because of the flexibility and the investment protection possible.
They have storage virtualization for 20+ years now. It didn’t even have the name by then.
HCI is possible, but I’m still a big fan of the industry standard server hardware boxes with DataCore on. Then you just throw all the storage systems you have behind. No matter what vendor or feature set. You end up with synchronous mirrors, snapshots, CDP as mentioned and more. Even full Veeam support for your zoo of systems. And you don’t have to buy all those features over and over again for your new storage boxes. Just buy the fancy new AF box without any bells and whistles and merge it into your stack without even touching VMware. Also decomissioning old boxes becomes as easy as it can get.
